What a day.Put lots of faces with names.Everyone I talked with seemed like I`d know them for years.The seminars were great.The hour allotted for each flew by and was packed with info.I was so involved with the seminars i forgot to eat lunch.Andy Dears presents at the show is worth the price of admission alone.His deals were crazy and his people were nice.Emily was a sweetheart for baby sitting customers blank purchases behind her at the register.Thank you for that service it sure made the day a lot easier.Andy`s fit and finish seminar was more of a round table type discussion of pet peeves(a great way to present this).All the venders were more than helpful without being intrusive and pushy.The U-40 booth was a great sorce of info all day long.I think I was back there at least 6 times and learned something new each time.Putter was,well he was Putter.The soft spoken free giving sharing type with a funny accent(Being from Jersey everyone had an accent even Billy Vivona).The NERBS booth very informative with the decrative wrapping.I got a few good ideas to improve my thread art.Worst part was having to drive home after the reception(10hrs with three short naps)to make it home for a fund raiser where we will jump into the oean(its 23 degrees and the water is in the 40s).Wish I could attend Sunday also but being selfish is not me.Thanks to all and a safe trip home.See you all next year.Maybe we will be the first ones at the bottom of the stairs.

Your cell phone still looks like a million bucks, Fred! I enjoyed getting to put a face to that name.
