So be sure to stop by my table (No. 312) so I can post photos of our members. I'm sure some may have forgotten what you all look like!

Best table number on the bourse! That's the last day of production of the chain cent, 1793
Looking forward to it!
I am grateful that show isn't canceled.

Coin displays and oenological crack-outs. For @ricko, copper and Cabernet.
Does Women In Numismatics still have a charity raffle?
Now I'm really looking forward to the Show!
Awesome

Look forward to stopping by !
@ColonelJessup.... Please be sure to detail the brand/vintage of your oenological ventures. Cheers, RickO
And the cheese pairings please! Peace Roy

Always enjoy your show reports. Make it a great one.
Can't wait. Absolutely love your show reports and have missed them.

I was raised in the valley of the moon Kenwood , Glen Ellen ,Sonoma Ca. The wines. Of all the cabinets there are 2that will always stand out. 1963 and 1968 Charles Krug Red Stripe 🤓
Psychedelic.

The watercress sandwiches in the convention center are usually wilting by 10:00AM.
The Brie gets uber-oozier by the minute soon after.
By 11:30, resentment from the adjoining tables about overflows from both the coin and the caviar lines is starting to build.
Working under the pressure of a national show is no picnic.
The resultant thread will take 37 minutes to load due to terabytes of images of wine labels and Forum members
To be or not to be, in Charmy show report, that is the question.

@ColonelJessup .... Probably will not find this one at the show.... Cheers, RickO
Just post my picture from 3 years ago.

I've got a guy in Rosemont says he can hand-deliver one of these to Charmy's hotel. What vintages might you recommend to charm the lady's palate (and my own)? Assuming a lack of congenial cheese in the Convention Center, any pairings you can suggest? Fedex will deliver to the bourse floor
I remember a Long Beach show in maybe '83. JD lived outside of Memphis, home of both Fedex and Corky's Barbecue. So a bunch of us had some fine ribs gifted to us for lunch that Thursday.
@ColonelJessup.... I cannot get Heitz Cellars out here, but I have been told the 2016 vintage was excellent. I would recommend an aged Gouda cheese with it. The richness of the Cabernet goes delightfully well with the nutty flavor of the cheese. Enjoy - Cheers, RickO

There are detractors of show reports with the extras,
But
PennyLady’s show reports are from airport to airport including meals and deals.
This one looks to be a mega-report with lots of photos.
You’ll get some real life photos of forumites with this one.
Charmy's show reports are the gold standard of show reports. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

I've had that Heitz wine and it is wonderful! I plan to enjoy some long lost wining and dining during this show and will have a couple bottles of nice reds at my table, so any of you wine enthusiasts feel free to stop by, and if you want to be in my show report and would like a taste, just let me know! To keep it coin related, I have also beefed up my inventory and will have lots of Pretty Pennies for you copper folks to peruse!

Ima look up Heitz 2016 in Wine Spectator.
@Charmy hands me a glass as I'm gazing through the coins stacked on her backup table. Some call this tripling your chances to fall in love.
@# - Evidently in wines, as in coins, there is a commonly-shared delusion in the merit of systems which might quantify esthetic virtue. The linkage ends there. They use a 100 pt grading scale.
A recommended cracker or biscuit for the Gouda?
Will the TSA let me bring cheese aboard in a carry-on, or do I have to check my bag?.
I've sure missed you and your wit! I believe you can carry on food in your bag (I know I have not had any problems with certain foods and I doubt they'll have a problem with cheese). Looking forward to sharing some wine and gab with you!
The Penny Lady®
The Gouda will keep in my hotel room fridge overnight. The Heitz 2016 will be delivered to my hotel Weds AM. And.... I'm buying more wine for @BigMoose and @MrEureka at dinner that night...., with luck Barolo for an osso buco or more likely an Amerone that doesn't overwhelm my linguini marechiara. What time does Gibson's open for lunch Thurs?
I will wear a shirt for Picture Day that doesn't clash with spilled Cabernet.
420 flash mob at 5:45 - Hall C, loading dock #2. No cash bar. Vaccination card required or bring your own.
great. miss them dearly. enjoy the show.
Look forward to your report! They always make me smile...

Binary thinking is destroying the intellectual fabric of American life. Explaining the former shouldn't disqualify me for the latter. Also, I made a part of that up.
The 420 flash mob at Long Beach is at 6:45 in the lower level of the Convention Center parking garage. There is a cash bar. @MrEureka and I are its bankers
Coloneljessup as your body deteriorates your mind has gotten sharper. Congratulations and will see you next week.

Coins are great, but cats rule. I will be keeping my eyes peeled for a sighting of @ThePennyLady ’s four-legged critter….and some nice cents as well.
Chance favors the prepared mind.

Kennedys are my quest...
the forum software has been deleting people's posts.
I advise that you copy and paste your post to notepad before the post attempt just in case it disappears.
Thanks, I always save my report on my computer just in case!

Please stop. I really don’t understand or want too. Hey check out the humor thread put it there. I happen to enjoy the colonels posts. What ever your reason I feel it’s in the wrong thread. Don’t no don’t tell me about yolo
And I really am interested in the OP as it’s someone new to me ( plus homey I really don’t like rude people)

That is one of my favorite wineries in Napa
Latin American Collection
Circa 1975, my senior year at school. I was working at the BOTTLE SHOP in Belvedere, CA part time a couple evenings a week. Jos Heitz used to make the rounds every week or two and leave us a couple of cases to try out. IIRC, he started with Zin. Seems he has quite a following now. He's done well. IIRC he was about 40 at the time and a nice guy.
And oh those '62 Louis Martini cab sav and Mondavi Private reserves. We had a limit. Two bottles. If you pushed it you lost your 'privileges'.
63&68 Charles Krug cab. Red stipe.
🎶 shout shout, let it all out 🎶
@Boosibri ... It is hard to get in this area.... Used to get it all the time when I lived in Seattle. Cheers, RickO
Heitz is one of my favorite wineries also. I have visited there on multiple occasions, & have a few bottles I brought back in my cellar.
Looking forward to the report!

Youz guyz just spend way too much on vino. Walmart house cab sav. $2.94 a bottle non vintage. Lay it down, I don't know why because it has a plastic cork and give it about 3+ yrs. Add an ice cube- good to go.
For me Mateus is as good as it gets. Comes in white and red. The liquor store where I buy my Korbel brandy doesn't stock it but can order it for me.
