Post by: kartjockey on August 09, 2020, 05:54:42 AM: There were two auctions happening while we were there. Auction was on Saturday as I was packing up. Lots of rusty old cars and old tractor and farm equipment. Prices for stuff went through the roof.

Close-up of Simplex shows air breather support bracket on a Phelon.

There was a trio of Edsels

There were four Simplex scooter/frames on the hill this year!. The one by the "sale' sign came home with me! Jim Lokai brought the one that is hanging from the stand for his grandsons to work on. He has some nice grandkids and we all had fun together.

Some of you may have noticed that I pack light when I come to Portland. Sterno stove heats my pre-packed breakfast sandwich just fine!. But for the second year in a row I have brought a coffee pot. I really missed my early morning coffee drinking with Bob Kerr this year.

Thanks to Rick I will have something new for the campsite. Small fridge. Gonna be great.

Tent picture is last night at camp. Then Saturday morning as I was tearing down a light rain fell in. I got everything loaded and then went and sat with a new acquaintance across the gravel road named Jim. Good stories.

When I left at noon I could count the campers. Portland was over!
