I had a great time as well and it was nice to see and talk with some of you again! This show always has very nice, show quality Montes (and very nice people) and this year was no exception. I took a bunch of pictures which I will try to post sometime this week. Being just three hours away, I pulled the one-day'er and I probably won't do that again because man was that a long day and we were beat when we got home.

I just got the heads up about this too. Same place, same hotel. I'll be there for sure next year.

Hopefully the gm nationals and Monte nationals don't overlap next year. If they don't, there is a chance that I well do both trips again.

Yeah, hopefully they don't.

From what I heard, the host hotel was great this year. Also, word is there was 105 Montes on the show field.

i am also hoping gm nats, monte nats, and the big 3800 michigan meet doesnt overlap on one another. if they do then gm nats it is for us. if its between monte nats and the 3800 meet since i did monte nats this year i will be going to the 3800 meet next year. a lot of my 3800 buddies (gp, regal, etc) was disappointed i didnt go this year.

Wow, all you Easterly Monte owners are fortunate, to have this event fairly close. From where I would have to travel from it's 848 miles, and from my temporary work station in ST. Louis, Mo it was 383 miles but I didn't have my Monte there. So I was really fortunate to be able to drive up from Tennessee last year. That wasn't a bad trip.
Anybody got any pictures to share??
