I'll be taking two Listers and other hardware to the show in Oblong Il this weekend.  If you can come please stop by and say hello.

found it on google/ looks like a very nice show. you are only a couple hundred miles south of the august Portland show/ well worth going/I make th swap meet every May but have not made the August show in 4 or 5 years/ I am usually out west during that show/ if you ever make the swap meet let me know/sid

I am considering heading to the Portland Indiana show.  Probably not exhibiting though, just looking and brousing the sales area.

Hi Paul, et.al.,
The show went great.  Many complements about the Listers, the models, and the chainsaws I displayed.  The trailer had a steady crowd around it.  Lots of interest in the Listers with questions about them and Listeroids.  The big 2 man chainsaws drew a lot of attention and comments, especially when started.

Unfortunately I left the camera at home.

The 6-1 and 16-2 generators ran all weekend on about 4 gallons of diesel fuel.

No leads on more surfaced but many took business cards with my contact information.
