I went to the show, arriving just after 10 and stayed till nearly noon. WOW! Great turnout. About double the number of tables as last Oct, and lots of customers, too. I went looking for a few specific things, which I did not find, but got a camera and lens I forgot I wanted. It's amazing how sneaky g.a.s. can be - I left the house thinking it was conquered, and returned defeated but satiated.
I went also, we overlapped by at least an hour. I was earlier. I agree that last October was kind of disappointing, and this time was not. I got a few goodies.
