So far.... repair clinic, trade, buy, sell, I have a free 'can of non-Hoover items', help yourself, lolo
A nice salsa dip/chip. also, deviled eggs (it IS Halloween you know), Italian chicken, baked beans in bacon, home made macaroni and cheese, (4 cheeses), Warm apple cider with mulling spices, ghost cake.
Sounds like "fun".
It began around 12:30. The last one left at 11:20 ! It was great to see the old gang again. WE also welcomed a new person to the fold. Welcome Robbie #2!
Vacuums ran all day. A circuit breaker tripped 4 TIMES.... (non-Hoover products). Dinner was fun. Thank you, Robbie Coonradt for the delicious pumpkin bread, Sam Addison for the cookies and cocoa, Chris for the steamed veggies, all else for the chips and assorted treats.
The boys, (Murphy and Harold) descended from their apartment to visit. Machines were etraded, repaired, bought, sold, enjoyed ,etc.
A wonderful time with wonderful people.
Pics soon.
Nine cleaners left the house....cellar dwellers, plus a ton on non-Hoover bags, (expensive Simplicity, etc.) were given away.
Everyone also left with a Halloween treat: Halloween kitchen towels, spatula, potpourri pumpkins, pumpkin spice soaps,Halloween tissues, etc. Always 'fun' to give holiday motif things away as a remembrance.
I should have some time to post pics tomorrow, things have been busy busy!!!
It was and always is blast, thank you John for everything, you are indeed the host with the most!
Thank you so much, John, for being such a wonderful host. The U4007 went to a good home. Let's see if I can figure out posting some pictures on the forum, as it is the first time I'm using this website.
I am so glad you were finally able to come to my home. You fit right in. I'm also glad to see you join Vacuumland. Now, we'll get you to join The VCCC...and, you can come to the conventions.
Glad you didn't run screaming from Pittston.
I am able to post the pics I got from the "Monster Mash Bash 2018"
a lot of fun indeed and lets not forget the awesome homemade Dinner that we were all welcomed to. It was great seeing everyone again and also great meeting Robbie.
Everyone seemed to have a great time. Over the years, I've collected some great Halloween AND Autumnal stuff. It's not all out. But, I didn't have time.Hope you enjoyed the "virtual meet" from your location. Christmas will be next.
Glad you all enjoyed the Monster Bash. Looks like lots of vacuums got played and even an Electrolux got serviced there!! I'm sure the house got blessed with Holy Water after.
A great time was had by all. Remember when you used to attend them, too?
Great machines... great food.... great fun... great friends. They'll be here again sometime before Christmas is over.
