george 53 Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 Guys, I just got home from the NNL'S! It was GREAT! Not quite as large as last year,but it was STILL cool! They were at new diggs this year and it wasn't as big as last years area, but there were ALOT of models just the same! I DID run into Randy Kern after all! He's a cool dude,an Nick F-40's Dad! I met Ted"chopper"Lear, REAL nice guy,an rather humble,I was impressed with him. Got tameet Lyle Willits,an talk some with him too. Bob Black didn't get ta make it, so no one organized a group photo, so Ya'll still don't know what I look like!(lucky you's) Naturally I don't have pic's. Well yeah. I do got some,but ya'll know the drill. BUT Pat Redmond took some pics,an Lyle was too, so hopefully you guys'll get ta see just how nice it really was. I had a GREAT time, even if The Big Kahuna an my 2 wes coas bro's couldn't make it,it was STILL a GREAT time! Hope ta meet/see MORE of you guys NEXT year!!!!!

RodBurNeR Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 I guess the word got around up there, I had a horrible day and no matter what I could not get on the road. It really upsets me because I can't take it back....but there is next year and nothing will stop me! I am glad everyone had a good time.
george 53 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Posted October 4, 2009 No doubt Bob, you WERE missed! But, like ya said, there's always NEXT year, an I'll sure as he--'ll be there! PLUS it's alot easier ta get to for me, in it's new location!!! See ya FOR SURE next year Bro!!
Dave Mikrut Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Really thought the NNL was next weekend. I was really looking forward to it. Called and cancelled my motel reservations for next weekend...man this freakin sucks!!! Boy do I ever feel freakin stoopid!
PatRedmond Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Was indeed a good time. Not like the 'old days' but still a fun time.

James2 Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 Both my boys and myself had a pretty nice day. Being the first time for me at this show it was a bit of a learning curve. I have to say the price stucture for entry to the venders area was a big put off. But we did see some old friends and meet some new ones also. Not sure if I'll go back or not, but the boys and I sure did see alot of very nice builds at this NNL.
