Sure wish I could make it! Money's tight though. Here's hoping the CSSA has the best show and sale ever.

What time does the sale start on Friday? I'm in San Diego for the next week, so I figured I'd make the trip. Is there a website with the time, address, etc?

Officially the sale starts at 10:30 on all three days. That's the official opening time of the gardens. However the gates are open much sooner than that. I think the cash registers don't start working until around 10:30, but that doesn't stop one from shopping.

I hope to see you there. We'll both be somewhere, selling and in charge of the show.
