Tomorrow is the Great Canadian Bayshore Game Sale, a nearly annual tradition that has been recounted in this very journal lo, these many years past. I've gone almost every year since 1990. Tomorrow morning, bright and nerdy, myself and a collection of local luminaries will gather at Bayshore Hobbies. Schedule as follows!

07:00 AM: Rendevous at Bayshore Hobbies in Hamilton's west end.
08:00 AM: Receive golden tickets, which determine your place in line for the sale.
08:15 AM: Greasy spoon breakfast.
09:45 AM: Return to Bayshore, stand in line.
10:00 AM: The Vaults of Wonder are opened.

Anyone reading this is welcome to join us if they can!

Over lunch hour I ran over to Bayshore to drop off some of my unused, unwanted games. Prior entry to the contrary, it seems I am capable of doing this. I'm selling some GURPS supplements, an old boxed Card Wars set, and a handful of Judge Dredd books and supplements. While there, I chatted with Rose, who has been running Bayshore Hobbies since 1980. She suddenly remembered a stack of photos she'd found, and we looked through some pictures of past events. She let me take some home, as there were a few familiar faces.

These photos were taken at the Hamilton Mountain location of Bayshore, which has since closed down. At this point in time, I didn't know either
