Just wanted to know if anyone went last year to see if is worth the drive to go. Most interested in what the swap meet was like. Thanks Thomas

Swap was pretty small, but ok if you felt like taking a drive with the show as a sideline. ;)

Swap was fine last year. 
It's an indoor swap, and the drive is a lot less than it was in years past.

They ran out of swap space early last year so this year they got a bigger area and still ran out a month ago! The added more "outdoor" swap space and that's where I'll be.

If anybody wants to buy something too large to carry home, I'll have my trailer and can bring it back north as far as Bellingham/Lynden if that helps.

Sounds good. I'm usually buried in Ghia parts, but I'll be trying to unload a bunch of Beetle parts this time too.
