Thanks again Pat for your superb photos and commentary. If I had done a job half as good as you did, I would have been quite satisfied.

You both did a great jobs Brad.Taking the time to take all those pictures and putting them here took a lot of effort not to mention the time that it took you away from the show itself.Much appreciated.

Gentle Friends,

Below are the last five photographs I took on Sunday. After passing John Updike's dioramas, I was too tired to try to photograph anything else. After four very full days, carrying that camera, plus a very full and heavy tote bag, down very crowded narrow aisles on Sunday simply wore me out.

Photo 171 - I could not resist trying to get a shot of the buzzards on John Updike's Noon Chuck diorama.

I hope you have enjoyed my photographic journey through OTSN 2014. It was a huge amount of fun and I hope to again attend next year. Will I see you there? I hope so.

Warmest personal regards,

Pat

Gentle Friends,

Photo 095 - There have been several comments regarding the young ladies that were working for Nicholas at the show. Well, here they are. They were a fun, polite, helpful, and they demonstrated a nice sense of humor. Nicholas certainly knows how to pick his employees!

Photo 097 - Here is the reason I returned my contest form to Nicholas. The John Jenkins prize in his room was this beautifully painted WWI pigeon wagon. Unfortunately, I must wait until November to discover who the lucky winner might be.
