If your laying down to look at the photos! Lol For those of you viewing the pictures on an I-Phone for some reason some of the pictures are turned sideways; not sure why this happens may have something to do with the fact they were taken with an I-Phone. If they are viewed on a "traditional" computer system they are correct for orientation and does not require that you lay down on your side to view. LOL

Sunday is a ghost town just FYI. Actually Saturday after 3 it all starts. IMO if you can't be there Thursday or even Wednesday I wouldn't bother too much.
Loyd. It's the same owner that's had it. And as for the fry. It now has a new home and is complete.
Craig. It's for sure a two day drive. But way worth it. Imagine the sight seeing you could do on the way down!

The only sight I like to see on the way to a swap meet is the one that says gate area ahead. Do not care about sight seeing, can do that at the swap meet. It is like I have blinders on.

Great job taking pic's and posting them. Now I know where all the good stuff went, it's in Texas! That Ford Lincoln Mercury clock got my attention. If the guy that owns it can read this and it's for sale email me or PM. That Ford tractor neon is truly one nice sign also, anyone have an idea of it's owner ?

Don't worry-from Portland to Pate in two days-you won't have time to see anything more than a verrrrrrry long blur.

Thanks for the pictures, there was a lot more signs and gas pumps out there. I couldn't break away from my space long enough to take pictures.

Oh yeah that sounds like fun if you had another driver who slept while the first shift drove. Problem is both start out at the same time so both are awake at the same time.
