We will also have a little dinner gathering after the show at nearby Nulli's restaurant. Contact me (John Scheib) for details and cost if you are interested.

Why li'l lady. I didn't bring a camera with me. I suppose I should have now...... It is just one of those things that just does not end up on my priority list like gas, air, and oil. And then, out of the blue, many miles from home it comes to me. frown I didn't bring it. cry

I'll try next time just for li'l ol you. wink Dandy Dave!
