    Hi Guys,

    Thank you for the welcome to the board. I have recently left a career in IT after 30 something years. My wife and I recently opened a shop in small town Fountain Inn, SC. The front half of our shop is antiques / vintage / collectibles and the back room is an art studio and gallery where I teach painting.

    We have had booths in a couple of antique malls over the last couple of years but would consider myself a novice at the antiques. I am looking forward to conversation and discussing what I seem to have gotten myself into ;)

    Mike
