smitty Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 The last time I checked with the Holiday Inn there were 71 rooms reserved! People are arriving as early as monday, and coming in on "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles"! I'll be checking in on wednesday, but will be down at the hotel all week.

Bo444 Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Since Roany said the "temperture" was STILL 29.95 (hahahaha) I'm not gonna make it this year. Just way too much other stuff going on.... besides Tucson. Dangit, I am sorry I am gonna miss Griff's blowout sale. Man does have SOME marbles!!!! Tucson, New Philly, Kansas City and Orange county all within 6 weeks of each other !!! 4 GREAT shows and there is just no way I can make 'em all. 2 is my limit with the travel and all. Sure makes the "Virtual" MARBLE MALL in April WAY cheaper to attend (subliminal plug hahaha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might google Holmes County Ohio for more info. New Philadelphia is in Tuscarawas County, Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glangley Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 The museum sounds fun! I am pretty used to Amish though, I probably have twenty family's that live around me here in Michigan.
