But overall I was pleased with the show. Always Great to see Friends and Dealers. Still a Wonderful Hobby (Business)--See you at the next show. Don

Don-it was great to meet you in person after frequenting your namesake card shop in Portland decades ago. I’m thrilled you did great at the show, you had some wonderful pieces. It was my 1st time attending and I got a lot out of it (the chicken in the GF wrap was delicious a close 2nd to trading up for a dream card
).
