Please share your photos of the folks who were at the show. I will start with what has been known in the past as the Friday Night "Ladies Night" hosted by Barb. At this show there were so few ladies that it became a gathering of friends.
So here we have (left to right) Hans, Linda, Willie, not sure, Dottie, Bill (Barb's husband), Paul (discuspaul), Me, Tom (my hubby) and Steve!!

It was great to finally meet some of the people that I've been interacting with here over the years.

Here's Barb with her cones and caves stand. I had purchased a come from Barb awhile back, and she had another personalized one ready for me at the show.
Was also great to meet you Pat and see you in action. Its wasn't hard to pick you out having that camera hanging around your neck.
I really enjoyed chatting with Ralph. What a lovely guy!

Good pics all you photographers! They remind me just how much fun NADA was and what a good time we had (despite the crazy driving rules and regs there). I got honked at several times at those no left turn intersections and the gill lanes.
Barb
Good question Pat. Have never seen anything like it and I have driven in lots of the US. When you come to a big intersection and want to turn left there, you can't. Signs say No Turns. You have to go straight through the intersection and somewhere later on, you come to a Gill Lane. You take it, make a big loop and come back to the intersection where you wanted to turn left, then you go straight through it, and can then get to where you are going OR make a left turn, which 10 min. before would have been a simple U turn. This all may not make sense, you need to experience it to see how it work.
