I wonder,do you think the show started too early and ended too late? Did you enjoy the trip and stop and buy along the way, or were you watching your watch and making sure you got to point A or point B on time?Just asking?
Always looking for Mississippi company items, Billups, southland, ride with rose.

I allowed plenty of time to arrive on Tuesday [as I usually do, except 1 yr Tugging a Boat Hull!], I left here on Thursday morning. ALWAYS enjoy the trip getting there & stopping along the way. Getting home w/ time to unload & re-load tools is a bit of a fast trip when I leave on Friday by 10am. Approx 1800 miles home.

Love the Schrader cabinet DB. Road trips are the best way to find treasure. I live in southern MO and have found some of my best stuff on the trips we make to Canada and Florida each year. 1000 miles one direction and 800 the other. Everybody always asks why we don't fly but none of them understand the collecting addiction. I'll post pics of the two pumps I got on the last FL trip later today. I finally got them home and back together for a picture......GB.

Nice finds!
Goes to show it takes effort and planning to get the good stuff. Plan to take best advantage of a swap meet including when the "real world" hours are.

You'd be surprised how high that hull [w/o engine] was bouncing on trailer, Before I added the 5 banana boxes of Oranges.
