Re: Spring Carlisle Swap Meet. Anyone have plans?

It was another great swap meet. Hung with 72c20customcamper as well as some chat time with quite a few. There were more people there on Friday and Satrday than Wednesday and Thursday. Thursday had a few brief very light showers that didn't phase a thing. Never covered my stuff. Friday was off and on showers but not early and although the showers were heavier there were only a few. I covered and uncovered my stuff three times for a while. But that almost tornado that came though was something! It was called for around 3pm. I was way across the grounds talking to the seat guy (Pete) and he said "I don't think you're going to make it". I trucked across, even looked at a few spots, just as I was finishing tying the tarp down it hit, and I dove into the side door of my Suburban. That passed and I went back to buy something I stopped to look at. The rain really had no effect on the overall event. You just look for an ez-up or tent to duck under, then carry on. It did get windy Friday evening and into Saturday morning, then just some gusts. It turned out to be a nice day.
Got back last night and it looks like a day of showers here today. Time to go unload.
