seattle card show?

[Runscott]

I spent all day today creating my first back-drop for displaying cabinet photos at the show. The cashiers at Lowes love me.

I'll be wearing a 1920's baseball uniform - haven't decided which one yet, but I'm sure there won't be many of us.

Well I'm in. I hope I can find some Obaks. Regardless, I'm sure there will be an abundance of interesting characters selling cool stuff. See you there!

Looking forward to seeing several collectors on both sides of the tables!

Happy hunting!

Looking forward to stopping by tomorrow and seeing some old friends. I have a handful of vintage duplicates that will be travelling with me for trade.

First time I had ever been to the WSSCA card show in Seattle, and can't wait for the next event in November. The selection is huge, something for everyone, that's for sure. Great to meet Mark M, Andrew, and Sandy at the show albeit very briefly Saturday.

Absolutely horrible traffic, left Eburg at 10, got to Seattle at 1130 (about 100 miles) but it took another one and a half hours to get to Shoreline (about 15 miles). Didn't get there until 1, or so, and needed to be back in Yakima for the Washington State High School Championship @4. Didn't get out of Seattle until 3p, you coasties can keep your crowded freeways.

Happy to report the Ellensburg Bulldogs beat Lake Washington 2-1 for their first state championship in program history. Coached a couple of these boys in Little League so an especially loud shout out to Ceanu Strom and Garrett Hull. Been playing baseball here since the 1891 Ellensburg Deathdealers took the field, and never won a state title until this weekend. Congrats to the Bulldogs, you made us all very proud, and I'll see everyone at the next show:

wow, that traffic sounds horrid, only took me about 20 mins from Seattle to Shoreline, but that was at 9am.

Actually had a brief conversation (maybe five minutes) with driver/passenger of the vehicle next to me on I5-90 interchange. Two pretty young women were listening to Soundgarden's Louder Than Love. By the time we parted company I could tell you their turn-ons/turn-offs.

The only thing that kept me sane was the F350 in front of me with the Keg-erator in the bed of the truck. I was definitely tempted to get out, and pour myself a tall one. Sorely disappointed I did not have more time, and that I left those baseball collectibles behind only to be stuck in urban Hell.
