It&#8217;s not due in it&#8217;s next home (Irving, Texas) for a bit, and the EGA has asked if we&#8217;d like to hang on to it for a bit longer since that makes more sense than crating it up and putting it in storage.  There won&#8217;t be any additional events (these folks are pooped), and it&#8217;s unclear how long some of the associated exhibits will remain up, but the national exhibit will be here a little longer for people to have another (or first) look.<\/p>\nNo tag for this post.\n\t<h4>Related posts<\/h4>\n\t<ul class=\"st-related-posts\">\n\t<li>No related posts.<\/li>\n\t<\/ul>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As mentioned earlier, this is the last weekend for the EGA National Exhibit&#8216;s sojourn here in Morris, Minnesota.
