Last year I wrote extensively about the IMS show in Cleveland. As I mentioned last week, I missed the Cleveland show this year while I was soaking up the sun in sandy, gulf side Florida, so I took my kitchen pass and headed over to Chicago for the big Midwest show.
In the course of about four and a half hours, I shot almost 600 photos; sadly, I know I missed at least one. I’m currently in the process of going through the photos and sorting out the good ones; I’ll have them posted as soon as possible, along with a few anecdotes about the booths and so on.

We miss going to the IMS shows. We used to go to Atlanta every year, then Charlotte, NC. Even our hometown, Greenville, SC hosted the show for three years. Now there is nothing in the southeast proper. We’d have to travel all the way down to Miami, FL. Too much time/expense. Hopefully they’ll reinstate one back here.

I received a survey from IMS, it included a comment section that I mentioned that they needed a show in Cincinnati. Perhaps Lexington or Knoxville would be more reasonable?
