what would i want to do all weekend.

Probably take 2 good days to see it all. So Thursday and Friday to look through it. Then all the "weekenders" show up Saturday.

[CRASH]

Yep, dad and I are going Thursday. Maybe go back Friday if the weather permits and there is some cool shit out there.

Walked that crap for about 4 hours today. Don't know if the old feet and legs are up for any more of that this weekend. Even started getting a little toasty out there this afternoon.

RIP Pate museum! My first exposure to the meet was at the museum about 1992 +/-. Sad to see it go. Glad to see the name hangs around.

The old place was pretty cool. However it was horrible trying to drag parts up and down the pasture......in the rain the last year that I attended there. SUCKED... Anyway, that was years and years ago. Next year they are having a "circus", I mean collector auto auction in conjunction with the swap meet.

After 3 long days of walking up and down, back and forth.....done "junking" for the weekend. Feet and legs are fried, bank account is done!So I guess it was a good weekend.

Fairly crowded out there this morning and early afternoon.

Dammitsteve and I were out there today. We got some nice seats for cheap. At least today, was not that hot, and most of the morning was cloudy.
