Patty likes antiques ( hence why she married me). Jamie at SHOF is giving her some directions to antique stores in the North Woods. Since she'll have our van perhaps others might want to go with her. Most likely on Saturday while we have our Board of Director's meeting.

Looking forward to seeing the everyone at the HoF Classic Sleds Roundup and of course the cook out Saturday evening. The swap has grown every year, displaying sleds under the pavillion is of course open to all. Keeping Don Amber out of trouble will be fun, as will trying to find sled treasures out in the swap. Last year Linder scored most of a 78 Cross Country rear skid for example.

I am really looking forward to seeing who wins the Brock Weber restored 78 Liquifire 440. The Board of Directors has been very pleased with the popularity of the Liquifire raffle sled donated by the jdsleds.com crew. It will make someone very happy this weekend and has been a great fund raiser for the Hall of Fame.

See you later, Liquidator,

Initial reports are that the show was bigger and better! Sounds like the raffle sled did fantastic, wait til you hear the final numbers. Sounds like the swap area pretty much sold out, and more show sleds in the pavillion than last year.

And, it sounds like Brock Weber has a story to tell as well...

Waiting for Don, Joe, and all the other participants to tell the tale.

I will post it as soon as I'm assured he's been notified. It was no one I know or name I recognized. He was from Walmouth, WI. I can tell you that in front a big crowd I was able to introduce Skoalmint (Brock Weber) and he received an huge round of applause for his work and then.......................................he was our third place winner receiving two registrations to the 2015 RWTC. He no longer has an excuse not to attend LOL.

Dang it, I must've misspelled Wausau again, hope my phone number came out legible. :thinksnow: My son and I did a quick run through, saw a the "II", sweet looking :) My spare cash went to the lunch counter - glad its going to help the club, so I didn't purchase anything but raffle tickets.

The karaoke dj was a hoot :laugh:
