Hi all wanted to post on here that I am planning a mini meet Sunday April 26. Feel free to email me if you would like to come. Some of you that have Facebook probably saw the post on those vac groups.

Gee, Luke.

gottahaveahoove's profile picture

I'd LOVE to be able to attend.  I'm not sure I'll be able to get away, as there's a lot happening back here.  It was great having you here in my humble home in January.  If I can,  I'll try my best. If not,  I'm sure it will be most successful. With right vacuums, good food, and great friends,  mini meets are a blast.

 John

I'd love to be able to come, it's about 3 hours from here, and would be my first mini meet, but will have to see what the future holds. Maybe if anyone else from Michigan is going I can pick them up or meet somewhere and split the gas?

I just might surprise you and show up Luke. Can't wait to see the look on everyone's face.

Why?

gottahaveahoove's profile picture

What looks are you hoping for?

 

  We all had such a grand time at your house, Luke, when we were at Kirby's 100th Birthday Celebration.  It would be great to see your collection again  when there would be less people there.

  Still not sure I can get away..... the college was closed so much during the snow season, etc.  But,  I'm not ruling it out just yet.

 If not this one,  another. How many are coming so far?

Well John, if you must know - Luke and Levi (as well as Luke's mom and his dad) have made the 12 hour trip to see me many times. He would be surprised (and I'm sure happy as well) to see me come to one of his mini meets. Luke is a great guy and a great friend. Plus, I'll see him in June at the Vacuum Collectors Group Convention the 2nd weekend in June here at the Vacuum Cleaner Museum.

Well,

that clears that up.  Thanks.  When you memtioned."to see the look on  everyone's faces,"  thought something else.

Luke knows that I, like old cleaners, don't travel very well. The surprise would be that I was able to contain all my energy for a long 12 hour trip. I've done it before, to see former VCCC board member, Clay Floyd, in South Carolina. I just have a very hard time in the car that long. Planning on seeing my friend John Gregory at his store, in the very near future - but I'll probably fly. He and I always have so much to talk about.

Well, it's good you can fly.

Our airport is 3 miles from here.  The vacuum store is about 20 minutes..... not hard to get to at all.  I presume you know all this, as, you no doubt have been there before. 

 Safe travels.

If you like chocolate,

gottahaveahoove's profile picture

be sure to stop by The Dunmore CAndy Kitchen.  It's 3 doors down from the vac store.  Co founder, John Lucia enjoyed the candy store when he came home w/ me from the VCCC convention. It truly is a must on any trip.

As far as I know I'll be there, don't think I've missed any of Luke's mini-meets yet! Always a great time, great friends, great vacs, and great food! And Tom, I hope you can make it! It will be a pleasure to finally meet you in person!

Excellent pictures. Looks like you guys had a blast. LOVING all the Dysons. Nice to see Evan S. and Evan R. exploring the new Riccar Prima canister. Can't wait to see most of you guys at the Convention at the Vacuum Museum the second weekend in June.

Yes, it was a blast! Always great to see old friends and meet new ones. And Luke and Levi are always wonderful hosts! Plenty of good food, vacuums, and visiting made it a really fun day. I was lucky to have the day off work--seems they work a lot of 7 day weeks at my new job.

Is the pine green vacuum a late model Regina or Oreck ElectrikBroom?
