And money. Don't forget some money!

If you drive I-80 thru the QC give a honk and I'll wave!!

Bad storms blowing in late morning early afternoon they are calling for hail possible tornadoes heavy rain. Eastern Iowa and NW Illinois be aware.

I went - forecast scared off alot of venders - maybe 20 on the track total. Out front was a decent amount. Inside was busier than usual.

I didnt get wet till I was leaving. Got there early enough to do all the outside then decided to do inside stuff. Didn't find /see much of anything. Alot of those "mobile junkyards" I call them of modern stuff. Yes everyone needs a cracked 96 grand am taillight :P I did see a pretty rough but usable as is after a wood block and hammering model A hood for $10...
