"The 2009 IBEX show, October 12-14, the last one to be held at Miami Beach," I'd love to hit it, but that's too far for me... You hop on a plane, you're there in a couple of hours. It's Miami Beach, a terrific place to visit, especially in October. -- Birther-Deather-Tenther-Teabagger: Idiots All Oh yes, I have friends there (Ft. Sauderdale. Homestead) , but it's bad timing for me, Harry. October will be the start of harvest season in the Midwest, and I'm going to be the proverbial "swamped" all the way until December. I wish they'd have it in February when work slacks off a bit. And it's cold up here. I'd be glad to go! Well, then, go to the Miami boat show...it's the best boat show, February 11-15... -- Birther-Deather-Tenther-Teabagger: Idiots All |

Beats me why they'd call it International, though. But I still want to attend. |

I've met some very serious boaters from Louisville and there is certainly no shortage of old time disposable income in and around that area. |
