RE: Columbia Day 2-Tylers First show - 2/18/2008 1:57:35 AM    thesodafizz   Posts: 167 Joined: 1/13/2008 Status: offline Just a note - I wasn't there Friday.  I could have been if I'd had a babysitter for Shaun.   So, couldn't make it until Saturday; got there a few minutes before 9.  They were good to me; gave me the first table inside the door.  I didn't give as many magazines away as I usually do at a show - but figured it was because most people that came by didn't know they were free (forgot my "Please take one - they're free" card.  But lots of people came by, and at least stared at me until they figured I didn't bite. :)   The best part was getting to meet people I hadn't met before - like Pat and Matt Dempsey and a few others that I knew by name but hadn't met in person.  About an hour before the show ended, while things slowed down enough to walk thru the aisles, I went around and took photos.   If you haven't checked them out yet, I've got the link to them on my little bit of cyberspace.   If you wonder how I know all those people - I didn't, so I started out with an empty camera, knowing it would start with picture #1, then as I took a photo, I wrote down next to the number who and what - with whatever comments I got, otherwise, I would never have remembered all those people.  A couple people was curious as to what I was writing down and sneaked up to take a peek - then laughed when they saw stuff like, "#19  blue shirt, white house stuff, who, where" on the list in case I got the numbers messed up< I could still figure out who was who.  Later, Mr. Blue Shirt came over to the table (after I got back to mine) and teased me about it, saying, "Remember me, I am the guy with the blue shirt from Strasburg" and laughed.  What could I do but admit I was "guilty as accused."  Then Pat came over and teased me - telling me he'd gotten my picture earlier, when I didn't know who he was.  So, I wasn't the only stinker there with a camera....huh? If you were at the show and didn't come over and yell at me, please do at the next show.  I promise I don't bite (and I'll give you lots of magazines).  Whether you read much or not, you can still look at the pictures.

I passed on several bottles thinking I had more time. Most of the dealers had already packed up that I wanted to go back to.  Missed seeing Pat, missed my CV bottles, did get to see Kathy (thesodafizz) before she left the building.  What a screwed up day for me!!  7 hour round trip drive for 45 minutes of the show.  Oh well, maybe  I will do better next year. < Message edited by digdug -- 2/19/2008 1:03:15 PM > (in reply to thesodafizz) Post #: 23
