Hilary I love the photos and everyone looks so happy. I couldn't return on Saturday to Blenko but did enjoy friday visit and bought several hundred dollars and a van full of glass for my friends.

I don't know where I'll work, or if I'll do another training program.
Do you know of an open spot for a Left Handed Dentist in your town?

Sent my Son the link for these photos, if you get a note from
Saul (not SOL) respond, he's my unmarried son, his Mom and I think he is a great catch.
Happy Birthday. Did your friends tease you about spending your Birthday at Blenko?
Is there a website and is the collectors four still a group?
I am always confused about this stuff.
Where to join?

Dear Hilary:
What a pleasure to finally meet you at the Blenko Convention! You have done so much for promoting the ageless art of hand blown glass and the treasure of Blenko Glass Company in Milton, West Virginia. Thank you so much!

Mr. P,
The pleasure was mine. My Dad and I collect together and have a very small collection, nothing like the magnificent collection you and your family have put together, it is one of the finest I've encountered. (if you haven't seen RP's collection - www.blenkoproject.org for photos of a small portion).
Blenko is promoted most by people like yourself - who buy Blenko - and share their collections and their knowledge.
Thank you.
Dr. Bob,
Thank you for the referral but I'm not "fishin". Life is much too complicated, and when I do decide to 'fish' I've just about decided to eliminate DOCS from the pool- their lives are also complicated.
My Mom is very much like you and your wife, always she looks for
'nice people' for me. I hate this,and I'm betting your son does also. You will learn to love whom ever he brings home!
Having said all this, let me also say I consider it a compliment when you guys write to offer me your sons, and nephews.

Now that I know you consider it okay I want to tell you about my nephew, who is 34 and lives in New York. He likes vintage cars, traveling, races of all sorts and theater. He is also very kind to older people.
