I have the day off and would like to go. My only concern is that I have enough room to stretch out my leg to be somewhat comfortable. If that is doable I'm in.
Oh, is and would there be room to bring back a 30 gallon tank?

That depends, can you fit your leg into a 30 gallon tank?

Michael, we're taking the wife's Tahoe. Not sure if that's enough room for your leg stretch. we can try it. I've got 2 29's coming back and a grandson, but I'm thinking we can stack them in the back.
Your call

I am picturing the grandson laying in the back of the Tahoe with 2 aquariums stacked on his back....

And a good time was had by all. Corey, Mike and Denny went to the first HAAS Swap Meet yesterday in KC. Corey got us all up at the crack of 8 am, and we were in KC close to the start of the swap meet at 11 am. Mike and Denny made major scores at the swap with purchases of red shrimp and bronze cories. Corey also managed a UV sterilizer for a really good price. We then headed to several of the LFS's and managed to find several barbs and some more cories, as well as providing Mike with some picture-taking opportunities of fish he had been looking for. Road trips with NWAAS can really be a lot of fun. Denny

I just found out that HAAS has a map of all the stores in KC on their website. Would have saved a lot of running around if we'd had that. Denny

Actually, we knew about it. I even posted a link, either in this thread or another. I didn't print a copy because the stores showed so close together that the markers all overlapped and couldn't be identified without zooming in. Even then, you have to click on the marker (they are all identical) to get a popup with a store name. It would have been nice if the markers had numbers to cross-reference with the store listing like some other maps I've seen.
Anyway, I had printed out the store list, and Corey had already programmed them into his GPS when I got there, so that we could choose the next closest location.
