Well, you'll NEVER guess what I found!!! One of the items was still on the shipping crate with all the goodies still packed inside! I'm going to keep you all in suspense though for a little while. We picked up 7 machines yesterday in a most unlikely spot.......hmmmmmmmm Right now they are in the trailer on their way to Wytheville. Soon as we get there and get them unloaded, I'll take photos and get them posted tonight. Couldn't believe my finds!!! This IS going to be a great year, I can just feel it!!! Mark

SEVEN MACHINES?! Did you knock over a vintage appliance store or something? Can't wait to see what they are! Don't keep us in suspense too long; you don't want the natives to get restless, LOL.
