I love going to Paducah during quilt week. I prefer going to the exhibition alone so I can walk fast and see everything. There are so many vendors and famous quilters there, I have met many of them. One wanted two women and I to applaud after every paragraph she spoke!! I'm serious, no joke. Take loads of cash, go to Hancocks and Eleanor Burns shows-she's a real lady. Transportation is easy to get in the city.
