We went down to Arlington, (Dallas) Texas to show our new Half-Pint 18 selection small vendor (front or rear load). Sunday (24th) the traffic was kind of slow, but Monday was a good day for attendees (exhibitors had free Expo passes to give away for that day). This show is mainly for the state of Texas operators, but was attended by many from other states who wanted to get away from the cold and snow of their home location. We got a visit from Scott Gray (Soapy), Western Association board member, who wanted to get away from the snow and cold of Idaho.

We had installed the first RFID "Wickets" system (IDX) in the vendor and showed how it worked to a number of operators. Worked real well as a "smart card cashless system". You can use this system in all the bays, vacs, and other equipment at a wash site.

Next on the show schedule is the World Car Care Show in Orlando in about a month. We look forward to seeing many of you in Florida and trust the east coast operators will come to this show that is in their back yard. This is the last chance for the easterners to attend the "World" show close to them, since all the "World" shows for many years in the future will be in Las Vegas.

See you in Orlando!! :)

I had a great time at the SWCA show. I thought they had a good turn out and put on a great show. The education programs got everyone involved and were really good. The Texas people are friendly and great to be around.
