What a great time my friend Claudette and I had going to PBS's Antique Roadshow!! There was alot of standing in lines (in total we were probably there about 4 hours) but it was so much fun to see what other people were bringing to be appraised. Each person could bring 2 items. Some had their treasures so wrapped up you could only guess what it was - we thought one woman had a bunch of subway grinders wrapped up in her plastic boxes LOL!!! It seemed like there was alot of furniture, especially rocking chairs and it also seemed heavy in the paintings department. I was jewelry and posters & prints and Claudette was jewelry and decorative art. Luckily we were not chosen to be on tv although we were both having good hair days :) but while waiting in the jewelry line we did see a woman that had been asked to be taped and they covered up her item and she told her husband that she was told not to speak about this until it was taped - top secret stuff, we were tempted to go over and test her to see if we could break her!!!! 
On the way out we saw one of the Keno twins and quickly grabbed an autograph from him. Hmmm, he signed like a doctor so we are not sure which one he was but I think it was Leigh. He was very personable and a good sport.
It was so much fun and I'm glad we went together cuz we laughed and laughed especially when we got on the wrong elevator and then in the parking garage it seemed like we were never going to get out.
