I'm going to the Dallas show next week. A bunch of us from Durant, Denison,TX and Sherman TX rent a bus and just go down for the day on Friday. Yeah, it wears me out, but I'm looking at embroidery machines this year, so that will make it fun. I understand the lectures are all free this year, so if I get tired I can always sit and listen to somebody talk. I enjoy looking at the quilts and telling myself, "Oh, I could do that!" or "WOW! How did they ever do that??". I don't usually buy much, but I enjoy looking at all the new gadgets.
