I believe the reason some vendors can't get into Road is because they are already filled up. There has to be an opening for new ones to get in. That is what I have heard.

I think that's a great idea. Ahead of time we should coordinate a meeting place for each day of the show that more than one of us is going to be there and meet up for lunch or snack or something. I usually go both Friday and Saturday. It is really hard on me right now, I want to go so badly!!!!

I would love to meet some of you! Lunch time is always good. I will be there Wed for a class and then again on Friday I think...or Sat. If my body would agree I would go everyday!

I plan to go but am not sure which day. I will not be in any classes. Where do you usually eat lunch?

Last year was my first and I can't recall where the lunch was at but I think we just bought food from the vendors there and ate outside. So to answer your question...I guess I don't know a specific place to be a meeting place....maybe some one who is more familiar can suggest one.

Sometimes I go and eat at the buffet in the giant tent out front. I will probably eat lunch there on Friday. But it will depend on other factors. I am really hoping to go this year.

Oh, yeah. I'll be there. Can't wait. It's supposed to be one of the biggest in the state. Since this will be my first time, I hope I'm not disappointed.

Wear good walking shoes and carry a big bag for shopping. I wish they allowed those carts with wheels - it is too crowded.

I'm going! Its my favorite show of the year. I love that there are lots of vendors and I always come back with ideas and a bagful of goodies. Road to California is by far my favorite show; I went to the Long Beach show this year and I honestly didn't care for it as much. Its so big and it didn't seem as organized as "Road". I didn't sign up for classes this year but I'm making that my goal for the next one.
