Here we are a little over a year since the COVID lockdowns . Last year we attended the Omaha show and then it all came to a halt . This year our first show was Omaha and it was a blast . We went on the pub crawl on a packed bus . People were ready to get back out there . The bars were full and people were having fun . A week later we were at Springfest at Evert McClay subject to some Minnesota COVID rules , but we were there none the less and had a lot of fun . Our spring show at Schell ’ s is set to take place on April 25th . This year we have a food vendor so no potluck . Stubie tells me the guy makes good sandwhiches and other items . Remember the Hamm ’ s show in Medina is May 23rd this year . Judy and I plan on attending to pick up items that people want framed . The Summit show was cancelled but the Northstar is planning a replacement show at the old Hamm ’ s Brewery . Don ’ t forget about Cloquet and the Nordlager boys . And of coures Leinie ’ s in August . Should be a good summer . On a larger scale the NABA 50th Convention is on for late July in Milwaukee and the 50th BCCA CANvention is set for St . Louis in late August . We ’ re going to attend both . The first 200 registered get a cool TOC commenmorative sign . So we are looking at the coming year with lots of optimism . We hope you find some cool things to add to your collection and we hope to see you at some upcoming shows .
Take care and Prosit ! Tom # 28855
