I finally got caught up at work enough to take and extended weekend (at least that's my story and I am sticking to it). Still have several reports to finish up and our end of fiscal year is Friday but I have been planning my escape for a few months now so I am out of here.
Once again, it is time again to hit the road for the annual old guys drive halfway across the state, drink beer, buy old car parts, and talk about our cars/wives/kids/dogs/jobs. This weekend is the annual Pate Swap Meet. Big ginormous flea market/swap meet/car show held up north of Fort Worth at the Texas Motor Speedway.
Typically around 2-3000 vendors selling anything from old car parts to entire cars. I used to attend this event annually when I lived in Dallas, but have skipped it the last decade. My brother and I have picked up the torch once again and are planning to make this an annual deal.
Will send some pictures of the sites/sounds when I get back on Sunday.

Hope you have a great time. Sounds like you are in desperate need of a break. Looking forward to seeing pictures of the festivities!
Good for you! As soon as things slow down even a little for me, I'm dragging my hubby to Nashville. We probably won't come home with car parts though...
Looking forward to seeing the pics! I'm sure you'll find all kinds of unique items to photograph. :)
Marty, we have to go back!
Swap meet time! Gonna come home with a Delorean this year?
