With all the swaps we do now I guess we can afford to miss one.

 I appreciate that. It's tough to share a 6' table though . . . . . .

If I don't get a table from the wait list, I may take you up on that.

I may also do both the Milwaukee and Davenport swaps on April 15th to make up for it.

I thought of that, too. I also e-mailed Alex to see if I still have a table in Davenport. I signed up and paid for a table there months ago.

I've skipped swaps in Cincinnati, Grand Rapids, and St. Louis this year. Maybe we'll start traveling again. They are kinda far and the St.Louis club is having an auction the day after their swap. That's the kiss of death because people will tell you they're saving their money for the auction. Been there done that. So goes the world of fish swap meets.

There's a rumor there will be a swap in Arizona . . . . . . .

I ended up double booked on April 15th, so I told him we couldn't make the trip. We will see. I hate to think of missing that one, but we can only be in so many places at once. LOL

I saw that. He usually has a couple of tables. Didn't call Matt. Guess I'll grab a small spot on your table and hope for the best.

 I called Matt. He's not going to make a promise he can't keep, but he's pretty sure I can get a table. He'll know by Saturday.

Nothing from Matt at the GCCA. And nobody added after Pleco Pete. So, nobody else got in either. Must be full.

I got a call from Matt. He got me in. Not in the same spot he said cuz lots of people asked for multiple tables. Hmmmm. There are several regulars still not listed. Same fate as me, no doubt.

Thank you for the offer to split a table. I appreciate it.

...well at least you got a table....and I see names missing too....I asked Steve Borsini if he forgot....he said no...he'd had nothing left to sell after selling out at the Rockford swap... ;)

I'm getting there real early cuz the floor plan is a little screwed up. They put Jeff at F13+F14 and there isn't an F13 or 14. I already let him know. I was looking to see who my neighbors were and noticed that mistake.

They also put two different people in A14. I noticed that looking to see if Jeff's tables were in row A, B, C, D or E.

Phil is at S10 + S11. . . . . No S10 or 11.

There are two S5's. Oh Brother. What a mess.

I'm getting there real early. If ya get there before me guard my table. If I get there first I'll do the same for you.
