I suggested that Jeff not go to Alta or Snowbird but just go to the icy ski hill with rope tow on the south side of MSP but he disregarded my suggestion.

Thanks Dick. I'm still in Argentina at the moment but in the process of getting home now, process is a kind word, root canal would seem more appropriate. Still on the fence with PF, will know more next week. Take care....

Big crowds here in Minneapolis. Lots of people come through the PGCA booth. We have several new members and much interest in Parkers. We are on track to sell out of raffle gun tickets and to bring in record sales.

Some photos follow . Much thanks to Dick Dow , Mike Kobos, Matt and Dean Hansen , Pete Kappes and Mills Morrison for staffing the booth.

We had a new member come by with his 36” VH 12 ga.

I had a great time visiting with the guys at the Parker Booth. Minnesota Vikings Coach Mike Zimmer, for those of you that follow football, stopped by to check out the Parkers as well and visited with Jim Beilke and Pete Kappes. I want to thank especially Bruce and Dean for taking the time to show me there various Parkers and give me an education on some nice pieces. Nicely done gentlemen.

You are all to be congratulated for the fine display and getting the word out about the joys of owning and using Parkers. Manning a booth display for three days is rewarding but exhausting. I tip my hat to you gentleman well done!!!

The Vikings coach followed a tradition. Years ago Randy Havel brought in Bud Grant and coach Grant stood in the aisle and started calling on anybody who was a Vikings fan. He told them to buy a raffle ticket and he would sign the ticket stub. We did well.

Great people and great times. We went to a performance of Garrison Keillor Prairie Home Companion and ate afterward at the diner with the performers.

And we had a member stop by to talk about his AAHE 28ga. He is supposed to post photos.
