furykid 51 #1 Posted July 5, 2016 With sadness I couldn't make the big show. It's a big disappointment but I hurt my back bad. I have been nursing it and had an injection but was only kidding myself when I thought I could make it. I couldn't have even made the 2 and a half hour drive to the show. Looks like I missed a great show and plan on being there next year. I need to get ahold of the Vinyl Guy to see if He still has my banner and if I can buy it off of him. I hope everyone had a great time. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rjg854 11,356 #3 Posted July 6, 2016 It was a good show this year, sorry to hear you couldn't make it, and next year will be that much better with you there! Take care of yourself, heal up and get ready to have a really great experience in a short 50 weeks. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
