Belleville Il. Swap meet

[Mearl]

Deb and I are fixin to go Belleville again this morning for the swap meet tomorrow. I don't need anything but it's a nice little meet that we've been going to for 4 or 5 years and it's a good excuse to get out of town.
Next weekend is the one at Springfield Mo. it's the one that used to be at Columbia but has been moved. We'll just go to it on Friday. Again, I don't need anything but it's an excuse to take a vacation day at work. I probably shouldn't take off, word came down Monday to expect lay offs since lead is down to 82 cents a pound but I refuse to live in fear of my job.

I live in Missouri but didn't know where the town Winona, MO was located so I looked on Google Maps. You have a rather long trip to Belleville, IL but only a couple of hours from Springfield.

Hope you find something you like!

Thanks Clyde,
It's more a reason to get out of town than anything. I should be wiring lights in the new garage since it's supposed to be nice.
I've been near New Florence many times when I had trucks hauling things up 19 highway. 19 actually runs through Winona on this end.

If you have time when you are up our way swing by sometime for a visit. We are only about three miles west of MO19 off of highway J once you get north of the town of Big Spring (town is so small the Entering and Leaving signs could be on the same signpost).

You might buy something ,you never know. I bought a new set of window handle's for my 63 . I had just thought about buying some on e bay a day earlier. I saved $20.00 on them ,but spent $40.00 on gas , does that make sense????? Oh well i enjoyed it anyway. Heck i even talked to Phil .

Less see here, $40.00 for gas, probably a meal alone the way, a days time spent,and you saved $20.00 dollars,I have done this many times makes perfect sense to me!! Beats a day at work.

Oh yeah, $5.00 parking , a very ,very, small bowl of chilli ,small bag of chip's and a coke $9.00 Now it make's sense!!!!!!! But you gotta remember i still saved $20.00 at the swap meet!!!!

I've spent 30 years with using that kind of math!!!!!!

I got $20 dollars off on the shifter in my 63 because I knew Phil. A guy named Roger at the Sedalia swap meet about 15 years ago.

 

[Last 60]

Must have caught Roger on a good day. It's usually $20 more if you mention that you know Phil!!!

When Giny and I went to Floyd Garret's Muscle car museum a while back , I told Floyd that I knew Phil and he told me to "GET OUT" , but Giny was welcome to stay as long as she wanted
