Unicoi was a great time as usual and I were able to pick up some great calls. We also went home by way of Canton and spent a few hours with Mr. Lonnie which is always a great time.

To hit Unicoi and Mabry in the same weekend is like winning the lottery. You got a heck of a loot. I did not do too bad myself.

Security- not the place to rob as many concealed weapons there are in that place. I wish I have had the will power to have quit at seven hundred bucks.  It was another great show and to me it looked like trumpets are now the new ticket for turkey hunters.  Those that were selling trumpets did well.  I talked with one vendor and he said he had over 5,500 calls.  Made me realize that  I do not have a problem.  After a quick stop to the office,  "honey I am home,  same old stuff there but was glad to see and meet some fine folks."  See you all next year.

I concur that there were likely more concealed weapons on site than most law enforcement conventions!  Zero concerns over safety while there.

Does anyone that went know the name of  call make at the Living the Dream table that was at the back left of the room?  I thought I had his information or card, but couldn't find it when I got home and can't remember his name.

I don't think you need to worry about security at that show ...

I know YOU'RE right !!!!!!!

I was standing, talking to Whitt yesterday morning when he happened to see a folded $100 bill fall from a man's pocket on to a VERY crowded show floor.  About 5 people nearly tackled the man to make sure his money was returned to him.

TRULY a salt-of-the-earth bunch of people at Unicoi.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing. That is the LAST place anyone would want to "try" to rob....whether they know it or not. Good luck getting past Kevin Kirkpatrick!!!!!

Nice hall
I wonder when they'll supply a security there  , makes me nervous

At least one of the vendors is a policeman.  Even without him, I don't think there would be any issues.  LOL
