Last fall was the first time I went to one of Chicago shows.  I had a great time and I really wish I could have made the spring show but work just won't allow it.  :censored: :darn:

Anyone else wish they were in Chicago right now and not reading this? :tounge:


Maybe next year we can hire this guy to walk around with his helmet cam while providing live streaming video of the swap meet!

      :biggrin:  LOL.   If I wore a helmet like that to Chigagoland the pictures would
be quite blurry as my head would be spinning constantly  :help:

  yes spoke to tom and he said having a very good time, told me he bought something great, but would send a picture  soon, < he said i would have to wait to see what it is.

It's windy and cold here.  I didn't go this morning, but I'll take my kids tomorrow.

My oldest son,Kyle, and I did however hook up with the crew for dinner yesterday.  The table was full.  I joked that they should've rented a hall!!  Had a great time.  A lot of conversations were flowing. 

Just waiting for the official report of treasures bought and any of those I walked by it, turned around, and it was gone stories.  As Maxwell Smart would say "Missed it by that much."

Wish I was there. This work thing sucks  :darn:

Make sure you guys take lots of pics to make us jealious.

Isn't it amazing that work always gets in the way of fun. :upside:

It's nice and warm here in my office but I'd still rather be there.  The worst day at a swap meet/ coin op show is still better than best day in an office! :happydrinkers:

I'll second that!  :happydrinkers:

I'm hoping to get to the Carlisle show though. Has anyone been there? is it any good? Anybody going?

yes it is a lot of fun,  you need good shoes, lots of walking, i will be going, with tom and mike, last year found nice air meter and some small stuff

Oh I wish I was there.... But hey saw Kenny Rogers in concert tonight and was only two rows from the stage.. Made up for it a little... (I know he's not everyone's cup of tea but what a showman)

Add me to the list!  I'd much rather be there at the show than here at work!!  I heard from Brian (Seven181) today and it made things even worse...sounds like he made some pretty good finds!  Darn, maybe next year when timing is better!   :biggrin:

I would kill to be there, I've got to stop by the office tomorrow and get things wraped up
before I take off for my cruise and believe me that is the only thing that is helping
 for this case .

  When Nov. show roles around I will be there , I'll even hound the Michigan Mafia
 to go  (I see a road trip in the future   8))

I'm planning on going tomorrow, I've not been in some time hopefully it's a good show.  I'll try to take some pics.

Wish I was there!  Maybe in the fall???

 :drinking: Tim :drinking:

spoke to tom this morning, he is on his way home, with some good stuff he said, he has a long ride , i think about 14 hours, He said he took some very good pictures he will post when he gets home.

I'm going to try to make the fall, I need to get there at least oncve in my life
