Now that was fun.

Got to meet about half a dozen people from the forums that I had only known on-line, and chatted with Byron Ferguson for a bit. Lots of good stuff at the show, and boy, was it busy even with the weather.

duckdog, you should have yelled out to us. It would have been nice to meet you.

Plus we had HNI hats and stickers. :)

It seemed that everybody wanted to see that 8 foot prehistoric monster and learn about shooting fish. It was tough to get to talk to everyone who came by. The isle was usually packed pretty solid, and often the first 3 rows were looking our direction.

Maybe next year we should ask for an 'island' booth so we can talk to folks on all four sides. :)Might not be such a good idea for the archery range though. :D
