Linda decided I needed some help on this trip and has agreed to join me for a quick two day excursion to Miami.  That is, if I promise to take her to her favorite restaurant (at lease in Miami) - Joe's SC/South Beach. 

We won't be exhibiting, just meeting with some customers and walking the show / with thoughts of exhibiting next year.

If you will be in Miami for the show Monday (tomorrow) or Tuesday, and would like to talk tables, or just say hi, just say the word!  Miami's always fun.  But we are over due a visit since it's been almost three years since our last visit.  - Gosh, now that I think about it, last visit to Miami I returned in a wheelchair!

Robin Wade
Robin Wade Furniture is a celebration of nature—a melding of a forward thinking commitment to the environment and a quiet, harmonious design aesthetic. From his "slow studio" in North Alabama, award-winning wood artist Robin Wade designs and crafts one-of-a-kind handmade furniture. Years before a piece is ready to enter a client's home or a gallery, the process begins—naturally—with the tree. Sustainably harvested, each specimen of hardwood is flitch sawn into natural-edge wood slabs, debarked by hand with a draw knife, and stacked to dry, usually for years, before the final cure in the kiln. From here, Wade and his team use both hand and power tools to bring Wade's vision to life, and then finish each piece with a hand-rubbed oil blend. Each organic furniture creation by Robin Wade Furniture balances the raw, natural beauty of environmentally, locally sourced hardwoods with minimally invasive, clean lines—a juxtaposition Wade calls both rustic and modern. “I haven’t yet found a better artist than nature,” he says.
