Thank you for the clarification on which shows to go to. All of artists who live here in Tucson basically do not eat for the months of January and February because we would rather have every dollar we can scrounge up spent at the gem show. Now, to my list of dozens of varieties of crystals that I must shop for, I will be adding antique beads. I think I need to give up food NOW and start saving...isn't there a term for that? Breatharians or something? I need to learn how to live off of breathing! ;)
