    Boom! Lots of stuff we don’t need.

    Good point. But perhaps that signals an anti-trend, an opportunity for a smaller, quicker market with carefully selected items.

    Hey, I was surprised to find my photograph being used on your blog. I haven’t seen it posted on the internet since it was shown for the purpose of the Albany Ave: Now and Then show last year. Thank you for crediting my work and be sure to see the rest of my photos at my website: nicolegesmondi.com. :-)
