I won't be making it up there, but that sure brings back the memories. Greene's was my hangout when I was there in the Navy. Richard and Jackie were still alive. Tell Greg & Claudette "Bill George Says Hi".

Andy, you gonna have some pics? Wish we coulda made it up there (pretty sure the grandkids would've enjoyed it); we have great memories of our years in Oak Harbor and a lotta visits to Greene's (and the North Whidbey Gun Club).

@Old Dog
I will try to post some pictures that I took ...
Was very busy both days...lots of visitors and lots of interaction with them and what I had on display.
Two tables of antique items or items that I made...and only me to man the tables.

Cool stuff, Andy! Thank you. I'm really wishing I could have taken one of the grandkids up there, she's got a definite interest in American history ("the old days") and it gives the youngsters great perspective on what the early days with the primitive weapons were like.

Thank you.
I enjoy talking about and demonstrating what is shown in the photos.

It would have been great to meet you and your grandkids....Maybe next year....

I do occasionally have a random weekend showing there at Greene's....I'll let you know when that happens if you would like.
