Our booth this year was D8.

We're in a prime spot for watching the daily parades.

This is a great group to see and hear but you need to expect a few booms!

The third weekend in September you'll find us in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. It isn't fall until we've heard the bagpipes, smelled the Sweet Annie, and eaten food cooked over an open fire.

Tucson and the 4th Ave Winter Street Fair

This show is really difficult to describe. Eclectic and amazing are two words that come to mind. You really should just come and see for yourself. There's definately something for everyone!

Our customers were as fun to meet as they always are here.

Next year we hope for two spots again so John and Charles can demonstrate carving.

Greater Gulf Coast Art Festival

We look forward to this show all year long!! Who wouldn't want to do a show in Pensacola?!? Our show family in the Heritage Arts section includes some outstanding artisans who are friendly and fun to be around. The setting is fantastic and the food is to swoon about. This year John was so proud to be awarded the Buddy Page Legend Award. The photo of the onstage presentation shows him with Paula Lou, our wonderful Heritage Arts organizer, and several other Heritage Arts artisans, including all the "front row" neighbors.
