Happenings at NRA 2008 Day 1:

A bright sunny gorgeous May morning greeted attendees and exhibitors as the NRA 2008 opened. The best part of going to the show is getting new ideas from unexpected sources. Ask the Design Experts where reviewing blueprints. Eco friendly is the theme this year as carbon footprints are making a huge showing. Mario Batali had people standing in a long winding fast moving line to get an autograph and picture. The education sessions got show goers thinking and reassessing. The Technology Pavilion was situated at the far corner of a dizzying area of tools to open, operate and expand your enterprise. The Culinary Scene at the other end of the exhibit floor demonstrated the incredible artistry of creative individuals such as Craig Priebe making the ordinary look spectacular.
