Jim

I'm almost there now!

thursday night if you want to see a large man fly down a water slide come watch me at the holiday inn by cabelas, hahaha

I'm hoping for good weather, but a little rain never killed a trapper!

Jim

What time does the gate open Thursday? I cant wait! And I have all this money burning a hole in my pocket!

Gates will probably open about 630 AM on Thurday. Dealer buildings won't be open until 8 AM, but the tail gate section will be buzzing with activity.

Hey Nancy, do you set-up at many shows?

Jim

I hope to get there in time to see Kirk Dekalbs beaver demo Thursday afternoon.

Yeah Turtle, I would bet that would be a great demo.

Jim

I used to do quite a few shows, but am cutting back as I get older.

I'm sitting out the NTA convention - sure wish I could be there.

Nancy

I am already here. Bauers work release program starts bright and early tomorrow. I will be thinking about you Nancy!

160 - trust me I will be thinking about you guys all week. I'm gonna be cranky the whole time, so folks better treat me with kid gloves, or I am apt to go postal.

And I DON'T to hear about all the good deals you found in the tail gate section!!! LOL

Plan on being there Wed afternoon and ready fore the first Demo thur AM

I started to pack tonight, leaving Tuesday morning.

I'll be there thursday morning to get my traps, 107 is the magic number so stop counting at that number

Flying into Mpls/Stpl at about 2:00 Wednesday afternoon, pick up the rental car and head that way.

I will keep it a secret then.

Going to load up the trailer and truck tomorrow night, lay in bed and not sleep because I am so excited. Then wait to leave Tuesday morning.

Will be heading up Thursday morning if all goes well. Look forward to meeting a lot of T-man folks up there.

On the road now! Should be there before noon if all goes well! Safe travels to everyone! Happy trapping. ScottW
