    I have three sisters and we have tried going to it for a long time. My husband got sick and passed away and now my oldest sisters husband is sick and she won't leave him. Maybe next year! Keep your fingers crossed!!!

    Boy it sounds like fun! It's a bit far from Jersey and I don't have anyone who would appreciate what a fantastic trip it would be. Maybe someday.

    Billy, so glad to hear you made that outing. It probably did you a world of good, mentally if not physically. You sound energized. Hoping it did not take to much out of you though. Maybe rest a day? Would've loved to go to see if they had any feaherweights-I picked up a plastic Singer to take to workshops but still would like a featherweight. Oh well, maybe some day.

    Never heard of it and I do want to go. Do you know anything about the one in Arkansas. PLEASE SEND ME INFO. Went to your website and enjoyed the pics and what you do. I have a 1911 White in a beautiful cabinet, drawers are curvy instead of straight which I have not seen before. Bought it for $5 in West Memphis in early 80's. Had cabinet redone but machine is still the same, need restoring. Reading about you and your joys makes me feel as though I maybe could do it myself.
    Where do you live. I live in a small town near Greers Ferry, beautiful area, the sportsman paradise. Also a pleasant place for old lady quilters.
