Hi Liz,
I'd like to attend the meeting, possibly with my girlfriend. Since I
live in North Carolina, it probably makes sense to drive up the night
before. Is there a reasonably affordable motel nearby?
Also, is there a possibility that we can get a brief glimpse of the
collection? Is there an inventory of the collection?
Thanks, and looking forward to meeting you,
David Kirsh
Durham, NC
