Head count: PNNA Show Tukwila, WA (near Seattle)...who is going/coming?

BochimanBochiman Posts: 25,556 ✭✭✭✭✭
So, I know Charmy said she was attending....I know some locals that will attend (and some that can't due to conflicts).
Looking at things, unless things change, I am going on Saturday and taking my son (it's a great show for the YNs for the treasure hunt....my son has done that the last 3 years and increasingly enjoyed it).
Walt Ostromecki (really great guy!) is running that.

So, if you are in the area, or not, and planning to attend, post and chime in image

    Yep, Bochiman is correct! This will be my first show in Tukwila and I'm really looking forward to it! Be sure to stop by and say hi!

    A rare show that I can drive to without hitting a highway. I should be in for at least a bit on Sunday.

    I have attended this show for the last few years and while it isn't a financial success every single time it is worth the effort to make the trip over. The coin show circuit doesn't make its way to the Pacific Northwest much so there isn't as much competition as there would otherwise be.

    Traditionally I would catch a flight to Seattle in the early morning and catch a return flight back to the Bay Area that same afternoon. This time on Saturday I'm heading (back) to Vancouver, BC for a few days of holiday before returning to the Bay Area early in the week after.

    The week after that will be a bit busier as I'll be attending two shows in three days; the Sarasota, FL show and Wayne Herndon's show in Virginia.

    Have fun guys... this was one I never missed while living in Seattle (the other was the Boeing show). Sure miss those shows, nothing here in the mountains - and I mean NOTHING. Cheers, RickO

    I will be there all day Friday, but doubt if I will make Sat. If it wasn't a 2 1/2 hour drive one way, I would gladly attend both days.

    QN...was looking forward to meeting you, but since it doesn't start until noon, and I have places I have to be starting at 1pm, I can't do it on Friday image

    Being from Oregon it is not too bad of a drive so I will be there too. I have gone the last couple of years and enjoyed it.

    Yeah, and if you purchased one, you'd be supporting the local economy!

    I will be coming up for the show although I was not able to get a table. I will be walking the floor searching for want lists and doing a bit of vest pocketing which sometimes can be a fun change of pace.

    This historically has been a good show and has limited space. I know of a couple of the dealers who got into the show only upon the death of a previous dealer.

    Hmmmm now what's Charmy's secret? image

    Ron,
    While I have plenty of miles for travel, the hotels and vehicles do get expensive.

    Jeremy,
    If I were going to buy a plane, you can bet it would be a Boeing... image After all, all the switches and displays on the flight deck (well, 99%) are built by my former company, so I KNOW they are good.

    Been going for about 8 years now. Not a super big show, but it's adequate.. Some nice dealers are there and some are pretty proud of their coins.. Hope to run into somebody over there. Will be there Friday afternoon with the Cleveland Indians baseball cap on..

    The weather forecast is for no rain 68 degrees Friday, so I may drive up from Portland. Plan to get there for dealer setup time 9:00 AM. Will stay until early afternoon Friday.

    I will check in with the Penny Lady, to see if any other CU members checked with her.

    Well, I'll give you an early preview of a show report then....


    I was able to find Glenn (PonyExpress8) and had a good chat. Picked up a nice 1921-D merc in VF from him.
    Walked around a bit, saw Charmy (ThePennyLady)....admired the cool copper she had.

    Now, past that, it will have to wait until after Saturday image

    Can someone pick up one of the hand struck pewter show tokens for me? I don't have a connection at this year's show to do that. I really love those little artworks!
    PM me if you can graciously assist. Purchase or trade for.

    I'm sitting in my 8 x 8 cube in Bellevue, 20 minutes away. The show starts on 2 minutes. This is killing me. image

    Since I'm booked all day Satuday, I have three options:

    (A) Sneak out of work around 2:30 today, and catch 2 hours tonight.

    (B) Go on Sunday

    (C) Not go at all, and live in pain.

    Help! Which option is better???

    Hi Ron,

    The traffic was tougher on the way down. Maybe 50 minutes or so? Renton/405 was a mess (what's new). No problems getting home. I left the show around 5:30. No problem. I heard they were staying open until 7pm. Had I known that I would have left left work a little latter. Maybe image

    Picked up a cherry PCGS 1909-D MS 63 Barber quarter. Nice original toning. Nothing much else jumped out at me. Lots of cool stuff down there though. Well worth the trip!

    Dave

    PS The Lady Lady had some amazing material!
