Anyone planning on attending Log Cabin's trade fair Oct. 12 & 13,  noon - 6PM Friday 9AM - 6PM Saturday. I plan on being there on Saturday and it would be nice meeting some members there. thmbsup

Woody,
I won't be there, going to a table shoot in Indiana, but anyone who has an interest should go. The Log Cabin Shop does a fine job putting this trade fair together and they deserve to be supported. This show should become the Dixon's of the mid west.

I'll be leaving at approximately zero-dark-thirty on Friday morning to arrive before the official start time of noon, and am going to be there till the show's done Saturday evening. I'll be sharing a table with Bob Rubbo, who will also be handing out NMLRA info at the table next to ours. Looking forward to meeting up with new friends and old, both.

I had the Pleasure of meeting Mike Lange (Mongrel) and Fred Woods (Woody) at this event today, Enjoyed talking with both, But I must report that Mongrel is nothing like his reputation. Truly a gentleman, Sorry to ruin your scarlet reputation Mike...  In the picture Left to right is Woody - Mongrel - and Grey fox.    Tim

Sorry Fred - it really is a nice picture. when I click on attach; there is no "Choose File" like it says in the instructions. I may have to have the neighbor kid help me - as both of mine are in college. He is a really computer savvy guy - and all of 9 or 10 years old. I'll keep trying until I get it right...

No need to be sorry Tim.....I figure the members will appreciate the extra time to prepare themselves. ;D

In addition to meeting and talking with lots of nice folks I picked up a nice little strap for my horn yesterday (horn in photo). The bag is one I made and posted earlier, I still need to find another strap similar to the horn strap I found or make one from leather when I get a new supply.  I wish there would have been a few more folks set up but it was a very nice event.

I enjoyed the show well enough to put in a request for a table of my own, next year. Good to have met Grey Fox, good to see Woody and Ken Netting and some other acquaintances from Friendship, again, and great to have finally experienced the Log Cabin Shop. For those who love this pasttime, the store and museum are open six days a week, 8:30 in the morning till 6 at night, and though they aren't huge in terms of square footage you could spend hours in the place and never get bored. Old guns, old books, gun parts, tools, supplies for everything from gunbuilding to beadwork to leatherwork to.... Just everything. And the Kindig crew are some of the flat-out nicest people I've ever met.

As Papa said, this event deserves to be bigger. Myself and the vendor next-door to me, at the Friendship Shoots, both attended for the first time this year, and will both be going back. I can promise anyone interested, that attending (even just to shop and look around) would be well-worth the time and effort.

OK - I have tried Numerous times to post this picture and I keep getting this message:

Does Anyone know how to change the file so that it can be posted? Thanks Tim

Either use a photo program to make it smaller or post it to something like photobucket first, then post the IMG code from the site you posted it to...

Using Photobucket or a similar picture-hosting site is the easiest way of posting pictures here. If there's a way of transferring a picture from my Windows Photo Gallery (where everything goes from the camera) directly to here, I have no idea what it is.
