Tomorrow, I'll be heading down to the Spring Jefferson Car Show and Swap Meet, one of the harbingers of spring in the upper Midwest. Be sure to catch me out there -- I will put out Iola Old Car Show posters, free issues of OCW and more on the publications/flyers table at the event's main building. You'll probably see me behind the lens of my camera, shooting pics and covering the event for OCW, too.
