Congratulations! I have walked around with judges at other shows, getting their impressions (it's very rare that they say anything as they do their job, so I have appreciated every nugget I can hear). They can be extremely detail-oriented and stingy with points.

I always try to take time to view the exhibits at any show (some get more detailed examination than others, of course). Exhibitors spend a lot of time collecting, researching and compiling their displays, and I want you to know that your effort is appreciated.
