PNW / FORDification Meet & Greet
Portland, OR. Swap Meet  -  April 3, 2005

 

2005 PNW Portland OR. Swap Meet

Yes, we had a wonderful time. The weather was wonderful considering the time of the year. The swap was HUGE! They had a lot of everything there, well worth checkin' out. My legs refused to get out of bed this morning, thanks to Peter (yes, he made the trip again). He refused to rest or much less take a few small shortcuts.

We walked what we thought was all of the outside stuff and then started to venture inside. Low and behold we looked though the building and out the other side and there was another parking lot full of booths. CRAP! We kicked into high gear but it was hopeless. We could not make it all the way through the entire swap before it was closing time. We missed it by one building. Poor oh Peter walked out with empty hands and a tear in his eye. He wanted to buy something so bad. We tried to talk him into some really cool looking taillights for his '47, but no go. He looked at me kinda crazy and said they looked ugly. He did take a liking to an old rusty toy tractor, but by the time he made it back the booth it had closed. Ouch!

Liz found herself a real nice set of '67 Ford truck manuals. She was so excited she couldn't put them down. She even brought them into the restaurant to read. Now that is hardcore. I didn't get anything there either. I had already given my piggybank to Mike for a real nice running 2,500 watt Onan generator...the one that fits under the hood of our Ford pickups. I am happy, that will come in handy with the construction of my log home. Thanks Mike and Lizzy. I bought it after the fact, but if I could have brought that into the restaurant I would had. It just isn’t fair.

Oh, I lost the name of the place we ate, but before I forget don't order the guacamole at the restaurant. Thanks Peter (F.O.R.D.) and Liz (OldBlue67) for another wonderful time.

Greg (heep70)
