Yes, there is NORMALLY a KC show in the Spring and Fall, though I have never been to one myself. I would think that they should have that bridge repaired/replaced by then.
Blade is strictly a knife show---the biggest in the world. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> You will meet many more Dogs, Rats, and Hogs as well as the Busses and more of their crew. You really should go to Blade, as it is a GREAT time!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
