I had no idea that you lived near or in Milwaukee. I go there every year in June for the Bead & Button Show in downtown Milwaukee. Maybe we can meet for a drink or dinner in 2011. I always love meeting my on-line friends.

I am relieved that everyone escaped the fire unharmed. The building looks lovely, of course now there will be a lot of rebuilding or tear-down and rebuilding to do. But it is life that is most important.
