I have a car collector friend from the Arborist site. I'm trying to see if he will be at that show? Might have to dust off the old tow bar and bring Gary's MG. Oh, I forgot, those MG's had bumpers made from old Stella Artois cans imported from Belgium. Better rent a trailer.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

Bark River knives are located in Escanaba also. A trip to their retail store is on my list.
Rapid River Knives is just up the road as well. They have an awesome showroom with TONS of custom knives. If you bring your knife here, any knife, they will professionally sharpen it for a $5 donation to Wounded Warriors. http://rapidriverknifeworks.us/We are going to have Savages, high end knives, classic cars, various beer places and some awesome fishing opportunities. Sounds like heaven. It’s why I moved here.

All: One more update. We will have a fully qualified gunsmith in attendance, who is also a great friend of mine. He has worked on a lot of 99s. You can pick his brain on any questions you may have. He owns this place. https://www.minerungunsmith.com/

I was really looking forward to coming and meeting a bunch of y'all, and doing some fly fishing while I was there, but life and family got in the way.....again! Hope you guys have a good time and maybe I'll see some of you at Joe's Pa. Rendezvous. I just gave everyone here 6 months notice, so that one's written in stone. Enjoy!

Just talked to John Allen and he will try and attend. He and his wife (and dog). May not bring a large number of guns? I will keep him up to date as plans develop.

I was hoping to make it but lack of finances looks to be the deciding factor. Still catching up from last year's taxes and this year doesn't look to be much better. I was really hoping to make it as I missed out on the Wisconsin gathering a couple years back due to it being sandwiched the weekend between two other trips. Maybe in two years.

I would love to attend as it is only around a 400 mile drive from my Iowa home. Would like to meet all of ya in attendance. Have to wait and see as my son-in-law is slated to leave around one of the dates on his 2nd Mideast deployment the days the 'fest' is planned for unless his deployment date is moved to the first week of June. Wanna be there for him and my daughter and kids.
