<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Penny Lady®, post: 2198233, member: 16948&quot;]If I thought Wednesday morning came too early, then I was sorely mistaken, because waking up Saturday morning REALLY came waaaaaay too early!!!!&nbsp; I arrived just about the same time as the public was being let in!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/IMG_2476_zpsqcovecxv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Although Saturday seemed pretty slow, I had a couple of good sales, including an 1855 Pattern Cent I had just bought at the show.&nbsp; But I had an early flight out so I had to pack up around noon and head to the airport.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>While I was waiting for my flight, I got a text from a friend who told me about Rick’s $127,500 1864 with L Proof Indian cent just being stolen.&nbsp; It just made me sick.&nbsp; Thievery at coin shows is not uncommon, but to me it is the most frustrating, disgusting, and maddening part of this industry.&nbsp; We all work hard for what we have, and to have some pathetic loser just steal what we work hard for is so disheartening.&nbsp; I fervently hope that this special and rare coin is recovered and that the thief/thieves are caught and stuck away for a long time.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://d1241z2j4c1il6.cloudfront.net/cdn/773552/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/e4d92e6aceaad517e7b5c12e0dc06587/6/4/64lp65rbp973.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://d1241z2j4c1il6.cloudfront.net/cdn/773552/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/e4d92e6aceaad517e7b5c12e0dc06587/6/4/64lp65rbp971.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://d1241z2j4c1il6.cloudfront.net/cdn/773552/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/e4d92e6aceaad517e7b5c12e0dc06587/6/4/64lp65rbp972.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Soon I was on my way home, with a 3-hour layover (plus an hour delay) in Dallas.&nbsp; Bye-bye Baltimore….</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/IMG_2482_zpshbvokgtn.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Hello Orange County…..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/IMG_2484_zpssbnbgvlt.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/IMG_2492_zps22yxbeva.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>We arrived about a half hour before the 11:00 pm flight curfew, so the airport was completely deserted!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/IMG_2493_zpswd9i01q5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>My hubby was working all night so my sweet daughter-in-law picked me up at the airport and dropped me off at home.&nbsp; Luckily, my adorable Penny was purring when I picked her up and smothered her with hugs and kisses!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/2015-07-19%2015.01.27_zpslnnp19bp.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2015%2007%20Baltimore/2015-07-19%2014.59.32_zpszi3bnh2b.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
