Well, the Philadelphia Home Show is officially over. What a great trip! The show was very successful and I made some new friends.
Bobby was in the booth to my immediate right, prospecting for bathroom remodeling clients. A retired cop, he clued me in on good places to park and good places to eat. He even brought me a Philly soft pretzel. I've always liked pretzels even though they are knot food.
Tommy was in the booth to the right of Bobby. The food company he works for was giving away free samples of steak and gourmet hotdogs. He kept me very well fed. Imagine, I'm in the middle of a flagpole demo and there's Tommy, bringing me steak. When I told him the one about the man who could eat a 32 ounce steak, he said he found that hard to swallow.
Oh, and by the way, for those of you in the know, Tommy is a "traveling man".
Both of these guys befriended a stranger (me) and made my stay in Philly both easy and memorable. I'll never forget their kindness and I look forward to seeing them again in the future.
