 |
| Well, I went overboard this year and John Spence, who was in charge of the Tradeoree area, gave me 80 feet of display area. The format I used ended up very nice, not hidden as last year. I put my new Scouting Heritage sign right in the middle, along with 2 6' tables and 3 card tables. I draped a few of my flags along the front edge, which really makes a Scouting display. I didn't have enough space for much of my collection. |
 |
| Looking left but there's 3 book cases you can't see further down! |
 |
| Looking right almost to the end... |
 |
| In addition to my 80' of display, I asked the Expo director to find me a place to put my Norman Rockwell collection. Here is a 20' x 20' area where I hung several of my calendars (not all of them), along with handbooks with his paintings and figurines, etc. Carson manned the booth quite a bit of the time, thank goodness, as I was pretty much stationed at the other booth. |
 |
| Here's Carson manning the Rockwell collection. He did a great job and he wore a retro-uniform with me. |
 |
| Here's Chad who spent most of the day and helped pack everything up again this year. Lily wants to marry a Boy Scout, I can see it in her eyes. |
 |
| Kevin and Meagan came all the way down on their 2nd Wedding Anniversary, the same day 2 years ago while driving to east coast! |
 |
| So, here's several pictures of my table display, starting at the left end and moving to the right. |

 |
| There they are wanting a picture with me as I portray James E. West. I just need some round-rimmed glasses. |
 |
| Here's a crazy pose picture. Carson and me are always straight. |
