My Visit To Mr. Puppet’s Toy Collection

The Vent Haven ConVENTion 2014

Well another year has come and gone for the Vent Haven ConVENTion. By all accounts, everyone had a great time, I know Steve and I did.

Mark Wade and his crew are to be commended for all the hard work they put into this year’s ConVENTion.

We want to apologize for not posting as many blogs as usual, but Steve had some technical difficulties with his newest computer. We’ll be posting some recaps in the coming days.

Now…..time to catch up on some sleep!!!!

Bob Abdou sent us this email about his “Tidbit in a Minute” videos:

Hey Dan and Steve,

I know it’s been a while since I made a Tidbit in a Minute. My summer

I have enjoyed making the Tidbits in a Minute and plan on doing more. I have 3 in the works and plan on sending some out in august.
