My mind wanders. And that's not a good thing, 'cause it's too small to be out there alone.

Thanks everyone!!!! [Smile]

I got a break last night and got a chance to sleep in my own bed instead of the floor of my truck. I've been at the BigE since thursday and it is going very well. I've taken some orders for some special pieces. My customer came to the show on Fri. and they couldn't stop drooling over the sign (good thing it's water proof lol).

Thay are going to let me show it thru the last weekend (Oct. 2). I'll get some booth shots up for you at the end of the week when I get another small break.

Thanks again!

Joe,

Makin Chip$ and Havin Fun!

Thanks everyone again!

Louie, I'm the first shed on the green in Storrowtown Village. Be great to see you.

Here's the booth...

 -

I also added a traditional sign icon to the display this year....

I'll get one more break next week before the final push.

Thanks again.

Joe,

Makin Chip$ and Havin Fun!

Joe,

I'm with Rusty. That's just average work for you.

Of course, average for you is off the charts for everyone else!
