Heyyyyy, Folks...
Well, we're close to caught up from all three of us being gone for 6 days. I'd forgotton just how busy, busy it could be when we do that once a year.

The Pennsauken, NJ Heirloom Convention was fantastic! You came, you saw, you participated, you played.

New this year ... Fee classes were held on Friday. These were well-received by stampers, so be sure to watch for more at next April's show. And for all of you planning to go to the Pittsburgh show in July (Remember, no Pennsauken show in August) ... you'll find Friday classes will be offered there, too.

New products and wonderful stuff? Arrrrggghhhhh... I don't know! :{<> I didn't get to make my round of booths at this show, sorry. I do know that Enchanted Ink (their first time for being at the Pennsauken show) had their fantastic tissue papers there. I passed by these several times, and they're hard to miss. If you've never seen these, you need to.

We stayed an extra day in the area so Cevo could see Philadelphia and Atlantic City. Long lines in Philadelphia now to see the Liberty Bell and other sites due to extra security measures. No more darting into town to see the sites ... so if you're planning to go, build a little extra time in your day to allow for the wait. We wish we had.

Atlantic City? A fun place we love to go, but Cevo sez "It's not Vegas".

Other Air Travel Tips:

Double check your carry-on items! KAI scissors get confiscated even when you really, really don't realize they're there. Yep, for real. :{/

Don't travel with Cevo! She apparently has "Search me" printed in invisible ink on her forehead. Must be true, 'cause out of 4 flights, she was pulled aside twice just before boarding the plane to be searched.

Thanks to Mary Ann and Jack G and Trish S for your wonderful, wonderful booth help, your sense of humor and fun. And thanks to all of you stampers for being there. Without you, we wouldn't be.

And watch out Las Vegas ... here Mr Evo & I come! This month... Friday, April 26th (3 hour dash at 6 pm) and Saturday, April 27th... 9 to 5.
