I was too busy to take too many, but managed to get a few pics. Hopefully others who attended will have done a better job and will post some pics here.

Just got home a couple hours ago. This was mt first show and did spend a bit!
I picked up a DeJarnet in the silent auction. Also one of Paul Morningstars'
Alligators. The seminars on refurbishing estate pipes was real helpfull.
Came home with about 2 dozen aged tins.
The show didn't seem very well attended but it was the first year here.
There were rumours that Greg Pease was going to be there but didn't make it.
Hope next year.
So this fall in Vegas!

It was indeed a fun show. Catching up with old friends Lee Erck and Bob Vacher, buying a pipe from Marty Pulvers, and then flipping it at Tom Dowell's table re-awakened the jices. I have PAD, bad, lads and lassies Smile

Thank you for posting. I was really looking forward to attending but work prevented me this year. I hope they do it again next year. Sparks/Reno seems like a perfect place for it- the area is very pipe friendly and the JA Nugget is a great family-run casino hotel.

Hope to meet you there next time!
