Ray,

You going to be there?

I might go. It would be an eye opener! I will be at the boat show at some point too. Its usually a pretty good show.

It'd be great to meet up!

Passes would help convince me! Thanks!!! I will absolutely bring Lizzy. She might get full of ideas, and then we will have some fun!

Hey all!

Went to the Home Show on Saturday and it was actually a lot of fun. Liz and I needed some ideas, and we came away with plenty.

The highlight of the show of course was meeting Ray. He graciously set us up with tickets, and spent a huge amount of time talking about all sorts of things; everything except cabinets! And I will tell you that though his booth was tastefully simple, it showed the amazing prowess this fellow brings to his work. Absolutely beautiful! Everything from custom cabinet refacing to full on, stunning mahogany and chestnut cabinetry. Just beautiful!

Ray, thank you for your hospitality and it was great to meet you! You can bet that when we endeavor to attack our kitchen, we will be in touch!!!! Heck, on many other pending projects too!!!!

Talk with you soon, and thanks again!

Dug,
Thanks for coming and the compliments..

Meeting you and your wife was great and hope to spend more time together along with my other 1/2 in a more social setting.....

Look forward to helping you and Liz on any of your projects even if it's for advice......maybe even a little lesson on wood species..!!
As I had walnut and quarter sawn white oak in my display.. :)

Thanks Again
Ray

Ray,

I meant Chestnut, said walnut. My bad. And I guess I more meant the mahogany that was used in some of the projects you had in the laptop. Either way, beautiful stuff!!!!

We will have to put together plans to get up to Swampscott!!!! I hope the show was productive for you, and that your wife eventually got out of NH!

:)
