The show was lots of fun!
I dragged the Electro-Metro and the Electric motorcycle up to the clean car show to display for the whole event.
Fellow Ecomodder Ryland was there both as a hard-core volunteer AND showing off his all-electric Commuta-Car.
Last year, I lost my voice talking to people for three days straight! Now, I have a stereo installed in the Electro-Metro with MP3 playback. I recorded an MP3 file of me talking about the car, and let that run on repeat on the car stereo all weekend. It saved my voice. I still talked to tons of people, but my car could talk to them too while I was away looking at the rest of the fair!

Boyscouts check out the electric banana. Both Ryland and I took it for a spin. Of course I didn't take it onto the interstate the way Ryland did.
The last thing you would expect to see at an energy fair! It is however Natural Gas Powered!

PS! Ryland, if you are reading this, the First Aid Tent hijacked my good yellow EV Charging extension cord! Guess I will have to be back next year to get it....
