My brother and I were highly disappointed in vending/swap meet area, as for us, it was definately a bad year for selling parts, etc. This was the worst I have personally seen it, in many year's. There were people walking down the lanes, but not many stopping to look at stuff. I do think the walk through the gate people, was way down, as to just about 2-3 years ago, I heard the gate entrances had more than 45,000 people through them then, not this year in my opinion. We did end up in the negative for certain, still have not figured everything up yet, still working on that part. So, after driving 650 miles x2, and all the fuel it takes, food to eat everyday, we just cannot do this very often, as it really takes a toll on both of us!! I'll just say this, we will probably try 1 more year in 2017, and see what happens, another year like this one, it WILL be our last for sure.
