DH and I have decided to use some of his hard-earned vacation, and we're going to the AQS show in Des Moines! Here's the website:

We'll be staying over the 9th and 10th. I didn't sign up for any workshops; I might when I get there, but really wanted to keep a free schedule. It just happens to be the same weekend as the big Fons and Porter sale, and Winterset is just so darn close :D

If anyone else is going, I'd love a get together - just let me know!

Oh wow! Lucky! Have fun and take lots of photos. :D

Good for you! Buy lots and lots of stuff at the sale!!!

I'm going to the show and sale too! Just don't know when I'll be at either. Just a heads up....the covered bridge festival is that weekend in Winterset. Lots of fun stuff, crafts/food/talent, going on but parking is a bear.
