What a great video. Excellent to see & hear Buzz Kirkel whom I've bought a couple of nice De Sotos from and of course John Merritt, along with being able to put a face to other familiar names. It looks as if you all had a fun and productive time.

....many times before I have said that John has "the gift." A true hobby ambassador that could host a weekly podcast, cable show, or steaming outlet with ease! Very nice video re-cap John, thanks.

You did a great job on this clip John; thanks very much. It is really nice to see and hear from various dealers and hobbyists.

@frank What a fantastic set of souvenirs you managed to find. I hope you'll take it as a compliment of your choice when I say I am sick with jealousy.

A great overview of the Countryside show, John. I am sorry I missed this one, but I hope to be at the March event. The combination of people, automobiles/replicas and camaraderie is wonderful !

Nice selection of models. I am glad I wasn't the only one that picked up a few models, LOL!
It was great meeting you and your lovely wife. I hope to see you in March, I've already told my wife she's coming (of course, I might have to buy less)

John,
Thank you for the wonderful video tour and interviews. Love seeing two of the folks that I have purchased models from, esp. seeing Buzz Kirkle whose voice I remember so well from past phone discussions, and now I've seen him moving and speaking on a small screen. 
Models = Miracles in miniature = Holding History in ones hand
Cheers and Happy Collecting,
Steve
