After my daughter finished at Ft. Rucker, she was assigned to Korea. The 2nd or 3rd day there, there were a bunch of officers and enlisted grouped around. Her boss told her to take the truck and go pick something up. Even though it was not her MOS, she obeyed.
She hopped in the truck, put it in gear and took off. Apparently all the people watching were expecting her to grind the gears. They did not know that she grew up with standard transmission vehicles.
There are only 2 big shows. NGD/SOS with a total of about 4000 tables. And Tulsa with in excess of 4000 tables. NGD/SOS is more fruitful for our line.
Next year is hard to say as the twp shows will be on different dates. But still each show will be 2000 tables or so.
I am not sure how big the Dallas show is as I have never been there.
The Denver show , around 1500 tables, can be good. It is heavy on western stuff, so our type of buyer com[petition is low and sometimes a bargain can be found. Cheaper for me to go by plane than fly as the driving distance for me is 1250 miles - or 2 days each way.
I would like to visit my friend in E. Amherst and he keeps asking me to come up, but if I did so, I would be violating about 65 (or so it seems) NY laws and if caught, might never see the light of day again. He does shows on a nearby reservation and from his comments, it would be interesting.
