Pate Swap Meet... Who went and how was it

[todd j]

For only the 6th time since 1987 have I missed the Pate Swap Meet. And the first time to miss it 2 years in a row. For those who went how was it? Plenty of vendors? Big crowds? The one thing I did notice 3 years ago was how many "vendor spaces" had cars parked in them so people could be closer to the action but not selling anything.

I'm not looking for any certain parts when I go, just like to look and visit with friends.

Let me know what I missed and thanks for your replies.
