Somerset Show - who's going and what day

[s fontinalis]

How many forum members are attending and what day are they going

I'm going Saturday and plan to spend all day there, or at least as much time as it takes me to get around, see what i want to see and talk to who i want to talk to.

Anyone else going Saturday?

I'll be there Saturday morning, but I have to get on-the-road fairly early in the aftrenoon, as I need to be back in Albany, NY by 5:00 pm or so, and it's a 3-3.5 hour drive.

I'm going to try to make it, still trying to figure out the logistics on getting there from Buffalo and where I'm going to stay and such.

OUCH! That would certainly be a LONG turn and burn!!!

I'll be there all day Sunday. I go to see old friends, cast new rods and pick up a few deals. The last day is when you can really haggle because no one wants to cart stuff home.

I'll be there all day Saturday and Sunday. Thanks for the tip about Sundays. I'll keep it in mind.

Is anyone in for a hotel room any night? I have to figure out some sort of lodging since I'm likely taking the 10hr bus trip in and out.

I'll be there everyday in the 4 Points booth. Stop by and say hello. It will be nice to shake some hands that I've chatted with here.

I'm going to be there all day Sat. At the Central Jersey TU booth. Stop by and ask for Neil. It'll be nice to see the faces of those I've been chatting with over the past few years. Sunday is tracking training for Rufus the Bloodhound or I would be there then too. It's a good show & I've made it every year to pick up odds & ends & to get tips from the tiers displaying their talents.

The Doubletree hotel has a decent breakfast for those that get there early &are hungry. A group of us usually meet there at around 8:30 for the buffet

Hope to meet you there
Neil

If you find one let us know! So far its been the hotel bar, buffet, or ordered in food (chinese or pizza). I am a foody, and there has got to be some decent eats around there somewhere!

It's looking like I'm hauling in Saturday, staying the night, and leaving Sunday night. I'd be happy to see a forum meet-up for a meal, beer, or otherwise. Homer, Neil, and Brooks, I'll look for your respective booths!

Also, I know we have a thread for this, but here's what I look like, in the event that I'm walking by one of my fellow forum members and I don't recognize you!

I'm the one in the upper left

Looks like my plans for the weekend have been nixed....A few crossed communication wires with Mrs Fontinalis resulted in me having to go to Lancaster instead....bummed, as i'd been looking forward to this since about sept 30th!

Gator,

There's beer at the show! One of the reasons I enjoy going so much. I'll see you there on Sunday.
