Fee for Attending York

I learned this lesson many years ago when I stood in line for a half hour.  I didn't think I'd get off of work but I did... back then I'd run around the first few hours checking out all the halls to fill "my list." So, missing the first half hour really put a dent in my search.

Also, a few Yorks ago I stopped reading these posts about York gripes.  However I must admit I learned I've been eligible for the senior rate.  I never gave it thought, just considered the difference a donation to the TCA.  

Nowadays I'm mainly interested in the Orange Hall.  I get to see the manufacturer's displays and make decisions on what I'm going to preorder.  And there's always something I didn't plan on buying that ends up in my bag.  

It's kind of like Christmas morning with a lot of trees to look under...

That's a perfect description of the York experience. My hat's off to you, sir, for that bit of romantic insight.

Thank you Frank,

If your works are on display in the Orange Hall I've complimented them a couple times in the past.

 It really does have a "holiday" feeling... York.  My dad's been gone since 1997 but I always feel him with me there.  He always reminds me to tip the guy in the bathroom a buck.  I guess I should bump it up for the twenty years it's been since we were there together.

I won't be there this October, but I thank you for your visits in the past. Have a wonderful time; in fact, have a merry early-Christmas looking under all those "trees."
