happy birthday - Blog - Art Fair Insiders

This is a big day for ArtFairInsiders aficionados. It is the birthday of Nels Johnson, the erstwhile chronicler of the nation's art fairs, roadie, gourmet foodie and tequila taster. He seems to be hiding out in Ybor City today, or maybe at the golf course. Please add your birthday greetings to him in the comments below and if you can, tell us your favorite Nels story.

Happy birthday, Nels. I never turn to this site that I don't hope there is a new missive from you. Many thanks for all the info, photos and laughs from you in the last year.
