Hi Gail
Thank you so much for the report. Helps so much to "fill in the blanks" as to who is who etc.

Well, I am on the final day of the Main show, Sunday. After the awards dinner and auction last night, it has been a busy and fun time. Today is running around, picking up minerals purchased, saying farewell and taking down displays. Bittersweet.
