Paul it looks like people are enjoying them selves And a pretty good number of vendors to checkout I sat with you in your booth with my brown dog A Boykin Spaniel That I had purchased from a breeder in Nakina NC in 2016 We spent time talking about your military service in Alaska (THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND DECICATION) Your beaver trapping history in NC And one of my favorite subjects when it comes to trapping Your Dad He had a huge influence on me as far as trapping went And his style of how he approached trapping And his sense of humor made him a fun guy to just spend time together Me and Emmy spent time in several of you booths while attending convention also It was what trapping convention are held for So trapper can get-together an exchange ideas and learn how to be better trappers Thanks for posting your posting I am not there but it brought back many good memories

Was good to see Paul and Lee. I had a great time at the convention Friday. Had to jet back home Friday night so I could start putting up hay. Got me one of Lee’s mini fleshers while I was there. Eric

Unfortunately, I left my camera in my room and didn't get anymore pictures. Hopefully some others will share some pics.

I sure missed some other folks who weren't able to make it. Gabby, Chic and Roy Greenfield come to mind and I know there are others,

Paul, my thoughts were with all of you!
Had a call from Lee saying there was a rumor I was a resident in a veteran's home!?!? That would be misinformation. Heck, When Lee called, I was bringing home a camper i bought today.
I do call bingo a couple of times a month here at the veteran's home. Everyone have a safe trip home and hope to see everybody next year.
