Someone was asking about what show I have a booth at in Tucson for the 2018 show.  I'm at the Pueblo show, it was formerly the river park show.  From what I have seen it's a good show just down from the 22nd street, AGTA, the GJX shows and right off the tram line.  It also has about the same amount of opal dealers as the huge GJX show so it's like a 1 stop shop.  We're more likely to be seen at a show with a lot of opal dealers than a show with only 1.  Our booth is number 5c so in the Cort yard across from the lobby.   We'll be easy to find just look for the short woman loving the weather standing next to a guy in the middle of a 3' diameter puddle of sweat.  I didn't get my application in soon enough to make it into the AC.  Thought 10 months would be enough but everything books out very early.  If you can even find a hotel room it most likely be gross and you will pay  $250/night.  If anyone wants to go from here I would recommend that a bunch of people go in on a large air bnb or home away, much nicer and allot cheaper in the long run.  Also you can cook for yourself, it can be very difficult to find a seat in a restaurant during the course of the show.

Thanks! I will probably just leave them alone unless I get so broke I have to take them to a pawn shop
