I was supposed to, but couldn't pull together the $$ I needed to before my travel permit cut off time ran out.

 That's a bad break Man!

I thought for sure you would get there. You could have done a lot for Savage Pens there!

I'm on probation 9for child support) and had to get a travel permit a minimum of 15 days before my departure date. I had to have everything paid for before I left & just couldn't get the coin together. It's killing me knowing I'm finally in production & can't be there. I don't care what has to happen, I WILL be at the next major show. (even if I have to sneak away for the weekend..lol)

I'm about to nod off so I may not reply until tomorrow (my tomorrow is about 16 hours ahead of the west coast of the US) but I just thought of something. Sorry for the dumb remarks but I have no idea what a pen show is like. I keep thinking so many pens to try out and to choose from and I'm already envious.

Part of me is jealous that I can't go. The other half is relieved. I doubt if I could've stopped from overspending.

Nice pics :)

The easy way to stick to your budget is leave the checkbook at home & bring only the cash your willing to spend and or the pens your willing to sell/trade.

TRUST me it's so very easy to blow the budget in the first day, you have to pace yourself...lol
