Looks like a mini meet is happening again

[gottahaveahoove]

AND.......................

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.

My first ever vacuum event!

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.

Robbie,

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.

Finally!!!

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.

Looks like you all had fun. I like the table cloth and the Halloween decorations!

Thaanks, Kenny

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.

Happy Halloween!

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.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Yes, Mr. Shore

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.

 

[connieceleb740]

Does anyone happen to have...

...the picture of me and John from the meet by chance?

I forgot who took it. We posed together with a (now my) U4007 and orange plastic base Convertible just before all of us left. Loved that one. Let me know. THANKS!

 

[gottahaveahoove]

we'll have to ask Mike

He took lots.
Looking forward to seeing you again..... we're not that far at all.

 

[electroluxxxx]

I forgot to post that!!!! I’ll definitely put that up! It was a great pic!

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Thanks, Mike!

I'm so glad you took such great pics. I'm hoping Robbie will become a "regular". CAmeras are always very kind to this house.
And, thanks for completing my Hoover "laundry set".

Thanks John


Thanks for opening your home and sharing not only with people who could attend in person, but also with those who, for what ever reason, can only participate from a distance.
Thanks to the web and picture sharing, an infinite number of people benefit.

And yes, you do have a beautiful stage with which to host.

This was spook-tacular.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Thank You, very much

They are a lot of work (prep), especially when you'r alone.
But, once everyone is there, having a great time, sharing, etc., it's all SO worth it.
I love having them. Years ago, the topic of "bashing" came up. Since I DON'T bash, I thought, "why not have a Halloween "Monster Mash" bash"? And, now, I think there have been about 8 of them at this time of the year. The house really lends itself to the decor, etc.
I'll have another one shortly AFTER Christmas, while everything is still up, and the pressure of the holiday is off.
