Enjoyed my first NTA national convention. Hope to attend one sometime in the future up in the Great White North. Riverotter good to meet and visit with you. Hoped to get one of Lee's knives but didn't have the funds left after getting my necessities. Did point it out to the wife since I have a birthday coming soon so still int the works. Forgot to look at my notes before coming up there, but did get some DigR from Mr. Dobbins and realized after reading my notes I should have gotten some GL40. Guess I'll place an order soon.

Brought the family with me for our first NTA event. Got to meet the boss man, I just introduced myself said hi and bought a jar of Backbreaker, he was busy talking and didn’t want to interrupt. Got to chat with lee shortly about his nice looking pup. Was a good time and I look forward to many future conventions in many states. Also I hope at the Missouri convention I can meet cfowler and clay creech

It was a good convention. Hate that we missed meetimg... Maybe we can meet at a future convention. That DigR should get a reaction in Arkansas...it does here in Georgia.

Mr Fowler, I had intended to look you up, but was always off on some other rat killin mission, so I missed connecting with you. Will you be in Chillicothe? Lee, I apologize for not introducing myself. I actually spoke with you twice. Once before the show, then again on Saturday morning. And, as always, it was very nice speaking with you. I tailgated, and was sending a few folks at you for the Death Rays and fleshing knives. I was a little short skinny fella with a long pony-tail. Met and purchased from you in Escanaba and Kansas last year. May refresh your memory a bit? Several of you Jayhawkers showed up, and we were sure glad to have you. Even Andy Eastwood bought another couple dz rebar stakes from him. Then he took the money and out-bid me on a Sterling at the Friday night auction. He whooped like he'd won the lottery, so I suppose I'm happy for him. Got to meet Ken Smith and a couple more from OK. Good folks there too. And, yes sir, I will be in Chillicothe. I'll make a point to introduce myself and speak with you a bit. If'n you're comin to Misery again, I wouldn't miss the opportunity to shake your hand again. Oh crap, please forgive my forgetfulness! Yes, now that You say that, I have met you several times before! Hard to keep track of everyone! Yes, ol Ks was well represented! I can guesstimate there were prolly several hundred Ks folks there, and maybe more. Thanks for getting me straightened out!

The next NTA, we'll have to do what we use to do. We scheduled a time each day for Tman members to meet at my booth so everyone could meet and talk with each other. That's a great idea!

Someone printed some pin-on-ID-tags with a person's Trapperman name to wear at the NTA a few years ago, and Paul had them at his booth to be picked up. That was a neat idea. I still have mine, somewhere. Darrel, I think that was Patrice that ramrodded that tag deal. They were daarn nice tags, and I think it was either in Ottumwa, Mn or Lima Oh, but as usual I can't remember! Maybe someone else can pull it out! lol

I like the idea of tags or a get-together of some sort. Never seem to meet everyone I want to, but always meet a couple of you. Highlights of the event for me.

Probably too early, but any idea on attendance numbers? How'd the southern one compare to the more midwestern or northern ones? I haven't heard anything. I asked Saturday evening, but the info hadn't come from the NTA, as far as I know anyways. I'm just as interested as you are though.

We scheduled a time each day for Tman members to meet at my booth so everyone could meet and talk with each other. i thought I had just missed the posting on this years meets. Name tags are a great idea anytime over ten people get together, imo, I never can put names and faces together with out some kind of reminder and I don't mind if you have to ask my name; but tags do help. Should be a part of the entry protocol.
