Well, it was a great turn out!! Special thanks to Lonnie and Gregg and all the Staff that put this show on. Here are some pics!

I didn't realize that my camera was on the wrong setting at first so some photos have been enhanced to make them lighter.

A really big THANK YOU to all that showed up and supported us and the show today. It was way bigger and better than we expected! And how about that weather? Just the break we needed!

If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions to make next year's show even better, please pm me.
