    Thats pretty neat. They have one near me, but I've never attended. I guess I should.

    I love these events. I wish they had one close to me every weekend. I even tried it a couple of times, but with three young kids the time and money were sparse.

    It looks like Abe has gained a little weight. Is the guy behind him with the badge supposed to be Pinkerton? Worried someone might take a shot at old Abe again?

    Cache Crazy - Go and check it out...I'm glad I did. Heck...it was free, except for the fuel to get there.

    PimpLenin - I thought I'd like to do it too but after getting sticker shock over the prices for the equipment I thought otherwise. Yep, it's a pinky with Abe. I read a good CW book about the Pinkerton's and the start of the secret service is called On Secret Service by John Jakes.

    truckinbutch - Thanks...I'd like to travel to a few more around the state, maybe I'll see ya there.

    kybriarbuster - Sorry I didn't get to meet you there. It was very hot that Sat. I don't know how they did it? I've got some links to research but I don't have (at this time) any actual info. on where it took place. Give me a shout, maybe we could come up a hunt.
