2018 Marietta Show Is Upon Us
« on: August 02, 2018, 01:36:29 PM »
It is show season as evident by the frequency of the shows lately and one of the best is coming up: The Marietta Show.  On August 11th and 12th the local relic club hosts their show in Marietta, GA.  Tables are less than any other show and they keep it much more military related so there is a better selection relics to be had.  BandS will have 5 tables there with a very nice selection of artillery and other items.  Please come by and say hello. There is always a lot of artillery at this show.  Hope to see you there.  I know quite a number of forum members have tables at the show and bring some great stuff.

Also this is a good time to bring any cleaning or drilling you need done.  It can be shipped back or delivered to another show.

Thinking about it but that is a long ride for my new born (3 weeks) 5 hours from MacClenny, Fl.

Of course we do, Scott.  The more the merrier.

I know of at least 4 more people from the forum who have logged on the last 2 days who are going.   

I am packed and my vehicle looks like a low rider for boulevard cruising.   God willing I make it there without bottoming out, and hopefully I sell at least 100lbs more than I add!  I’ll need the money for a new set of shock absorbers.

I hear through the grapevine that Judge Flowers will be there. Is this accurate your honor?

I didn't make it either Your Honor. We decided it would be to far to drive with a 3 week old. We will wait till he gets a little older for those trips. Hopefully I may be able to catch you at the court house or maybe Charleston in January. I'm doing better. Every once in a while a take a nitro, I think I still have some angina going on. fixing to have to get more test done. Thank you Sir for enquiring.

I can now mark one of the items off my bucket list: Get on front page headline of newspaper but not for something bad.   ;D

Very good show.  Crowd seemed moderate though not sure what it was but people were buying.  Had a great time spending some time with good friends.  Had a dinner to remember!

Jay:  Hope you continue to improve.
Best,
Carl
