Maybe, just maybe, that is enough of a 'sob' story to get you two tickets.  :D :D ;D

The cost of the tickets are on the small end of the list of costs involved.

There is the 18 hours of driving one way that we'd spread over a night on the way getting there and another getting back.  Then we'd be there for two days so that's 4 days so far. 

Then it takes Mary a day to get ready and take enough "stuff" to homestead in Alaska.  Then anther day when we get back to unload, unwind and get back into work mode again. 

So that’d be 6 days out of work with 4 nights in a motel room and eating in restaurants – not to mention $2-300.00 in gas.  Money going out, none coming in. :-\

I plan to attend the show on Sunday.  I have been the last four years but havn't had the pleasure of meeting any other members.  I would prefer to go on Saturday but my daughters band is playing in the West Virginia mountain state forest festival in Elkins WV.  So I will have to attend it on Saturday and try to make the PB show on Sunday.  Hope  to meet some of you members there. ;D 8)

You don't want to miss the Forest Festival in Elkins W. Va.  I recall President Ford visited it one year.

Can you please post directions? I can get to Nelsonville OK but need directions to the show and camping area. Also do I need to call in and pre-register?

I wasn't even there at Paul Bunyan this year and I got this picture.



Here is Burl Thatcher with some of the furniture he build at the Paul Bunyan show 2005. 

I guess nobody seen him work on the Lathe-Mizer because everybody was looking the other way. ::)
