I was wondering if anyone else was planning on going to the Barb Wire Convention this year? It is a combination between the California Barbed Wire Collectors Associate and the Antique Barbed Wire Society.
It is going to be in Minden NV at The Carson Valley Inn, Thursday April 20th through Saturday 22, 2023. Lots to do around there, if you have not been to Carson City before.
I am kind of excited, I have purchased a pile of historic barb wire catalog books over the years and have a hard time not cutting up the old fences I pass over. I have a hobby of taking pictures of the wire in fences, then trying to figure out where it came from.
I don't think there is a website, so I scanned and attached the announcement. This may be your last opportunity to attend a gathering that does not have a website.
Judging by the rest of my office, the only other person I know who might have similar interests is KentMcM. I honestly have no idea why this does not generate more excitement...
