I am still here in Tucson, leaving in two days. Had a great time with the beads and the people.
I'll post some pictures when I get back, but I did not take that many. I do have some treasures to share, though. I think my favorite things I am taking home are a Venetian millefiori face bead and the Prosser lion's teeth that I showed earlier.
And ofcourse, in a league of the own, is the whole collection of bead cards. With padding and some other stuff we bought (how did I suddenly end up with a full 1924 flatware set?), we will be shipping seven 16" by 16" boxes tomorrow.

Yesterday and this morning, I have been showing Meg (Mparis) around. It was her first time in Tucson, and it was great to be able to share in the excitement of seeing these amazing beads in one place for the first time. She made a lot of great pictures, so I am hoping she has the time to post them online. We had another small dinner at Marisco's last night, with 12 people. More bead talk and laughter.

For those who are interested in glasswork, I would recommend going to the Flame Off next year. It was our first time this year, and it is great to be able to see all these glass artists working against the clock to create their pieces.
