"I was wondering about that. With lots of people still setting up, isn't that a deterrent to shoppers? I know the Mall one has always been open Friday night. So enough people do walk over, to make it worthwhile?

"KIA started Friday night sales last year. Was an easy set-up Friday afternoon and there were plenty of shoppers that night. I had good sales that eve and be backs on Saturday that scoped out the show Friday night.

"Best wishes, Sandy. You might search for Nels' report from last year for more details and maybe he'll be there too. But I'm sure there will be a fair number of people from AFI in the show."

- Sandy, These new pieces you have added are terrific. Really interesting and I don't know anyone else who is doing work like this. I like the "rawness" and the slightly unfinished look of it all. Good job.
