Ontario Show

If you live anywhere near So.Calif. The AMA show is at the Ontario Convention Center starting tomorrow. They have been upgrading the old IMS show, and this year moved it to the new, larger facility.

Ontario is north-east of Los Angeles, but not so far as San Bernardino and Riverside.

The Knights of the Round Circle will have a booth there, and I will be there Saturday morning and possibly Sunday morning too. (My Dad's 96th birthday and an old friend's memorial service are also on the platter for the weekend, so time must be rationed)

This show has a swap meet attached, and is a great place to find obscure materials and tools. I got the perfect Carbon Fiber tubes for my wing jig there last year.

Darn and I have always thought "ontario" was a chunk of land on the banks of some of the Great Lakes!!!!.

And great lakes they are, too!

Ontario, Calif is named by two Canadiens that got lost on a boat trip south many years ago. Note the spelling of Canadiens. they were headed for Acadian country in Loosiana to visit some Cajun realtives.
