<p>[QUOTE="The Penny Lady®, post: 1689860, member: 16948"]The PNNA Tukwila show has always been a very active and well-attended show and it’s one of the best regional shows I know of. Scott Loos and the rest of the PNNA team do a fantastic job advertising, organizing, setting everything up, and making sure the show runs smoothly and efficiently. I understand there’s even a waiting list for dealers to get a table at this show. </p><p><br /></p><p>The show this year was again very busy, with crowded aisles and lots of traffic, but from many accounts actual sales were down compared to last year. It’s possible that the gold and silver prices dropping so dramatically this weekend made collectors more hesitant to spend money on coins. But as they say, if you aren’t having a good selling show, then you can make up for it by having a good buying show – which I did!</p><p><br /></p><p>I left a sunny 80-degrees Orange County around noon on Thursday and arrived in Seattle with my mega coat since the weather reports said it would be in the high 40’s to low 50’s with rain in the forecast – which was right on!</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1153_zps02f31562.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1153_zps02f31562.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1153_zps02f31562.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>Descending into the Seattle area</p><p><a href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1154_zps4c10ec88.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1154_zps4c10ec88.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1154_zps4c10ec88.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>My wonderful brother Paul lives in the Seattle area so he picked me up at the airport and toted me around the whole weekend!</p><p><a href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1244_zpsc9701f0e.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1244_zpsc9701f0e.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1244_zpsc9701f0e.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1155_zps6b9cc9f1.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1155_zps6b9cc9f1.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1155_zps6b9cc9f1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1157_zps62d8207c.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1157_zps62d8207c.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1157_zps62d8207c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>We had an early dinner at my brother’s favorite Mexican restaurant – mmmmmmmmm!</p><p><a href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1158_zpseb38934f.jpg.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1158_zpseb38934f.jpg.html" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1158_zpseb38934f.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>My brother plays the trumpet and attends rehearsals for a jazz band and a concert band on Thursday nights so I tagged along with him to watch.

[QUOTE="The Penny Lady®, post: 1689860, member: 16948"]The PNNA Tukwila show has always been a very active and well-attended show and it’s one of the best regional shows I know of. Scott Loos and the rest of the PNNA team do a fantastic job advertising, organizing, setting everything up, and making sure the show runs smoothly and efficiently. I understand there’s even a waiting list for dealers to get a table at this show. The show this year was again very busy, with crowded aisles and lots of traffic, but from many accounts actual sales were down compared to last year. It’s possible that the gold and silver prices dropping so dramatically this weekend made collectors more hesitant to spend money on coins. But as they say, if you aren’t having a good selling show, then you can make up for it by having a good buying show – which I did! I left a sunny 80-degrees Orange County around noon on Thursday and arrived in Seattle with my mega coat since the weather reports said it would be in the high 40’s to low 50’s with rain in the forecast – which was right on!

Even though I am a little prejudiced, the bands are both very good!

Paul has his tv and just about every other electronic thing networked up to his computer. He works at Expedia so he was showing me on his computers where his building is located via Google Earth [URL=http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1161_zps7ab4889f.jpg.html][IMG]http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1161_zps7ab4889f.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s441.photobucket.com/user/thepennylady/media/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1162_zps795ebeb0.jpg.html][IMG]http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2013%2004%20Tukwila/IMG_1162_zps795ebeb0.jpg[/IMG][/URL] The next morning we got up early and headed to the Tukwila Community Center for set up.
