Advance forces arrived at Casa Da Dogwood right on time 0800. Order of Battle consisted of Adam Baker, Dukwhunter, Iron Mike, PhantomII and myself.
Uniform of the day was then issued.
We advanced on to the show in Lexington and reconed the site, vendors were setup and prepared for the onslaught. Your humble reporter attempted aggressive negotiations with the first vendor who was holding captive a sought after booty that's been much discussed on these forums. Yet, those negotiations yelded fruitless. for the time being.
Our non conformist Dukwhunter setup his entries for the competition and we all decided to make for strategic retreat to the LHS located in far off Augusta with a mess call at the PF Changs. After assessing the LHS I was unable to acquire any new additions to the arsenal of the uncompleted sprue. But the rest of the team were able to restock vital fluids and even new ones to test out.
We returned to the site of the previous siege to re-engaged negotiations with the previous vendor who was holding out firm so I had to meet his demand but still saved from full retail.
The nonconformist Dukwhunter also had to claim his winnings for all four of his entries including a Best of Show!
Really had a good time today guys, Mike has more pictures. I'm sure he'll be posting soon.
