Sure happy for you Jerry that you got to attend the ICRB.....I think if the TRB's would get together as a group.....wether flying or driving.....if surely would save on expenses....
I have my sights on 2011....

Trey Shaw · Senior Member

I'd like to see a good size group go to the ICRBE next year... I'm going to go for sure.

Hey Jerry! Carol & I certainly enjoyed the show & visiting with all. We got back today @ noon. Quite a drive; what with the weather & traffic jams. We hope that more can make it next year if it goes. As some of my coon A friends would say: We passed a good time. Alan.

Alan Heuston · Member

Hey MaryLou! Heard lots of people talking about your talent up at the ICRBE, from the snake skin dealer to others. You might want to try to make the trip to show some of your rods. Alan.

Jerry Poindexter · Senior Member

Alan, glad ya'll made it back safe and sound! Haven't heard from Terry and Danny, but they're probably sleeping it off. With the show in NC always in late Feb, the driving conditions can be crazy, especially w/ this "global warming". I enjoyed my flight back to DFW w/ Dr. Hanneman and Joe DeLeon and his wife, who rep for Diamond Two products. Plan to fly if you can, as it's a long way, right Alan? ~ 1500 miles from Houston?

Terry Jones · Senior Member

Danny and I also made it back around noon!
I did get some pictures posted up in my photo album...it was easier there....

I did see quite a few Texas Rod Builders there, that was only the ones wearing there caps that I could id them. I was working the RodDancer booth displaying FishHawk threads and Threadmaster finishes and epoxies. It was great to see see and speak to you folks, hopefully more of the group can attend next year.

Raymond Adams · Senior Member

Welcome to the forum Mike..!!

Thanks MaryLou ! Robbie has had only great words about you. Also your rodwork that Ive seen on fb is really awsome. I agree with one of the members , you should bring some rods next year! Perhaps we can display them in the RodDancer booth, providing there built with FishHawk threads and Threadmaster finish. After this show Im already thinking of displaying photos of rods in the booth, maybe digitally.

Terry Jones · Senior Member

Hi Mike! You and I spoke quite a bit! (with Danny) Really glad to see you here!

This forum doesn't get the traffic of other boards, but is intended more as a clubhouse for us to meet and chat in a more casual atmosphere. It used to be for members only and just recently opened it to anyone, which has really worked out....the ones that come and stay are the ones that contribute and enjoy!

Welcome again!

Maybe the TRB could charter a bus and ride up insted of flying. It could be one heck of a party, How about some thoughts on that.

Doug Williams · Senior Member

that's a good idea Paul, as long as we can fill up a bus.

That a good idea Paul.....but I remember one year when there was a terrible snowstorm in NC..and the surrounding states...something that needs to be considered if anyone is driving...

Terry Jones · Senior Member

Danny and i were very lucky....we had gorgeous weather all the way, but there was still some snow piles where they had 2 feet 10 days before...just a matter of timing. It was also over 1,100 miles from H town which accounted for 35 hours round trip!
Wouldn't hurt to check into the prices...it would be fun!

         Personally , I would like to drive...my biggest concern, would be a winter storm along the way....that is one reason I don't drive up to Lamiglas in April...
         If I am going to travel that far, I want to see every inch of the country....

Does that mean I would have to ride the short bus again?
Pat

Paul Lindsey · Senior Member

Pat i thought you and i would have the short bus with the beer, What do ya think?

Pat Helton · Senior Member

I've got an Excursion and an Expedition. That would haul quite a few folks. I could even pull a trailer with benches in it.
