I walked into the large room through the second door. The table immediately to my right is, for some reason, completely lost to my memory. I’ll blame it on pen show excitement.<\/span><\/p>\n

I walked down the row and spent a few minutes staring at the <\/span>Kanilea Pen Company<\/span><\/a> pens. They’re absolutely beautiful, but, for some reason, they just don’t call to me. I’ve yet to figure out why.<\/span><\/p>\n

Just past Kanilea was <\/span>Jonathon Brooks<\/span><\/a>\/<\/span>Carolina Pen Co.<\/span><\/a> Unsurprisingly, the pens at his table were absolutely beautiful.<\/span><\/p>\n

I drifted past the next couple of tables, pausing at the <\/span>Bittner<\/span><\/a> table to admire the Visconti Homo Sapiens. Standing there, I reminded myself of my main plans for the show.<\/span><\/p>\n
