Trip to the midwest


I flew out to harrisburg, PA and Evansville, IN (and owensboro, KY). Other than breaking my new macbook pro -- the trip was productive.

The thing about a small town airport are that the lines are hit or miss. In this case I hit it just right. (note the car in the lobby???) The picture below is of the lines in the harrisburg airport at 5:30PM on a monday.

The auto emblem machine (or AEM) as it was known in a prior life was in residence at one of the facilities. Even though it's ugly it was a sight to behold. One operator using 4 machines and sewing dozens of thousands of patches a day. Impressive

Merrow has manufactured sewing machines since 1838 and remains one of the most interesting companies in the textile space
