This has been one crazy month! I ve been on the road more than I ve been home. As a result of my own craziness, as well as everyone else s craziness, this newsletter is probably going to be late. I apologize a lot for that! I hope everyone was able to make it to our show. We had beautiful weather and a great turn out. A lot of good finds were found by everyone. We, also, had a lot of great exhibits, both adult and YN. November brings our double auction and our annual holiday banquet is on the auction s heels.
