Great pics John! For those who are a ways away from kzoo, you can get pretty cheap airfares to Michigan in january LOL! I flew round trip from rural Oregon (3 flights each way) for $397. That's half the cost of the same trip in June for Comptons. It's a very worthwhile thing to do if meeting and talking to any of these folks is important to you. Everyone there is as down to earth as you could imagine. I had nice talks with John Dill, Ron LeClair, Bob Morrison, Brooks Johnson, Larry from German Ridge, Brian from Bowyers Journal, Ken Beck and Roger Fulton from BW, and other great folks. It's a lot more than a shopping spree. It's a chance to meet some exceptional people. When I was younger, I passed up a chance to go to a similar event where Fred Bear was attending. Now I don't have that option, and I'm forever kicking myself. Next year save your quarters and hop a plane. You'll be glad you did.
