I've been to that show a couple times.  It's been 20 years though.  It was huge back then...probably bigger now.

I only went to the swap meet and that was on Sunday. Pretty big.

I don't know about this year, but the last few years I think they had like 12,000 cars registered.

So if you went to that show 20 years ago, would that make it the "Back to the Thirties" car show?  :bigsmile:

A friend of mine was there and said 14,000 this year.

I'm 36, but I'm getting to that age where I think back at how long ago certain things were and say "Holy crap...where did the time go?"  A couple girls from my high school class had kids when they were seniors.  Those kids have now graduated.  That's insane to me.  Where did the time go? :o

It doesn't slow down! I'm 50 now and can't believe how time flies faster every year!  :eek4:

And I strongly agree on this.
I will be 50 in September. The last 20 years seem to have flown by as I look back on them.
At this age, looking forward to retire, time isn't going by fast enough.  :eek7:
I'm not trying to wish my whole life away. Just the working part:bigsmile:
