Barrett-Jackson 2009 recap
JL in the booth at Barrett-Jackson showing our unique lines of outdoor teak furniture.
Sales numbers on the cars were a bit off this year. The interest though in our outdoor teak furniture was stronger than ever.
Relaxing at the show.
This clientele demands top quality teak furniture and our unique lines deliver. We were positioned again in the Lifestyle Pavilion.
Socializing with interested buyers.
For those that have not been to this spectacle, it is hard to believe what we are next to so I have included some photographs of the planes, helicopters, power boats and spa services.
Clearly the collections that Mark Suess designed have a distinctive flair that the higher-end, discerning homeowner appreciates.
Barbara and Jim enjoying the Bellasera Collection after many days at the Auction.

The Fairmont display in the Lifestyle Pavilion added a great touch.

We will have many products never seen before on display in our studio, out in the parking area, on the side walk and in the covered patio area.
Mark Suess, designer of the outdoor teak collections, beamed when Arizona Governor, Janet Napolitano commented on the beauty of his work. (Not sure if either will be at the studio, but hey, the old teak door in the background will be on display).
Its hard not to think of a beatiful fall weekend with out the mention of football and of course America's Team. Yes, the Dallas Cowboys and Jerry Jones. Well, maybe some players from the Fountain Hills High School football team will drop in.
Refreshments will be served.
I can't say with any certainty there will be any celebrities or dignitaries dropping in but as more and more people hop on the "Eco-Train Express", you never know who you may run into at our up and coming new location.
