To those traveling (likely many of you), please check the weather for Saturday night and Sunday. There is supposed to be a good winter storm coming through the area bringing snow and ice. If you have travel plans on Sunday, I would strongly recommend checking the weather for yourself.

I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable trip!

Yep.
My wife and I are playing it by ear and will be getting out of dodge on Saturday if we need to.
Fortunately for us, we both have Monday off and our cabin let me know we can stay an extra day, if we get stuck.
I know a lot of others aren't so fortunate, so please keep an eye on it and make good decisions, folks.

My wife and I just had to cancel our plans just a couple days ago. We had a room booked for two nights but my parents (our babysitters) got sick so I will not be attending Unicoi for the first time .

 Last night I seen the FINE piece of snow removal equipment above, I really enjoyed that. Thank you for the picture.

I once seem a piece of equipment that was manual driven, imagine a shopping cart in place of the car! Don't know if it had chains on it or not but wouldn't doubt it.

Wish I could attend, but a few small issues and weather are going to keep me from it. You people enjoy the show and be safe.

I'm a big fan of frogwood but it think I've found a new favorite.

I about grabbed that copper from misfire, but choose to go with Buster's green slate and some strikers from JLH. Also was considering ceramic from I think nature addiction?

Lower than normal but well attended. Was nice as it was not as loud from calls or talking, you could hear yourself think. There was video posted somewhere of Friday, I will see if I can find it.

I was actually surprised how good attendance was on Saturday morning. We bailed out at a little after noon because of the long haul back to Pa. and the pending bad weather.

Very nice to see you Donald.

Always a pleasure to see you Mr. Tony. Wish we could have stuck around longer but we did not want to mingle in the crowds too much with the virus going around. Hopefully next year we will have a cabin.
