Rene: My wife totally agrees and thinks it's a great way to get novel gifts too. No cookie-cutter gifts! Hard to believe we're thinking holidays already ... but here it is!

My wife thrives on these things ... so I'm see a visit to the show in my future. EVERYbody knows about this show. It has a great reputation and has continued to do well and others have not. Stop on by ... you can go over with us, Dagny!!

Ah yes, it's getting to be that time of year again when we go to these Christmas Bazaars and Craft Shows. I love 'em all!! I've got to remind myself to post my articles soon. So nice when proceeds go to a good local cause.
Carla: True ... and the list of organizations and charities that have benefited from this particular event was so long and numerous that I chose not to include it. Very impressive and a good reminder. Hope you enjoy each and every show you attend ..
