Mary and I plan to attend the Mid-West Forest Industry Show in St. Charles, MO. September 23,24 ... if something don't come up to keep us from it. 

Here is a link to their web site for more information and some idea of the vendors that may be there.

Has anyone been to this before? I gathered it is for the pallet people....am I wrong? Is it something similar to the logging congress only much smaller??

Here is Bibbyman's thread on it, and some links. The exhibitors list for last year was pretty impressive.

Today I got the Dodge 3500 all gassed up, dirt and trash kicked out of the cab, washed the dirty windshield, checked the oil,  and removed the junk we didn't need from the side boxes  - we're ready to head out early in the morning.
