Exactly where in Jackson is it? Might drive out that way depending on weather.

Is this usually a good meet? I've never been to this one.

It is located at the Jackson County Fairground Expo Center. Really not very big and seems to be the same stuff every year. Usually just good place to BS!

There seems to be a little confusion on the date.I just talked to the person in charge,
(517-764-3135)they told me it is on the 18th of Jan.You may want to check the date for yourself,I am going to call the fairgrounds on Monday to confirm.I think it's a decent show,first show of the year,like Dennis says usually the same stuff every year,some non car stuff,but a good show to start the year off.

There is an old saying that says---There is no fool like an old fool---We'll I just turned 70 last week and I have confirmed that saying---I drove 120 miles to Jackson MINNESOTA this morning and realized that MI means Michigan---
I did have a nice breakfast in Spirit Lake, Iowa and the sunrise was magnificent-

Hey 34fordy...You are not alone ! A few years ago, I drove from Oshkosh, Wisconsin to Ames, Iowa for the National Buick Show. I was the first one there ! I was one week early. And, Yes. A week later, I made the same drive back. So what do you think ? Are we the only morons ? Any one else want to " fess up " ?
