Birthday outing

The Antiques Roadshow came to town today, so I got tickets as an early birthday present for Ariel.
Here is the photo of her at the ARS site


We got there around 9:40, got in line until 11 for our sixty seconds with an appraiser. Pushing the wheelchair with one hand and carrying the rug in the other went fine until the cell phone rang.

The "Kazakh" carpet we brought turned out to be Qashqai, about 75 USD per square foot. So its not quite the precious object it might have been. She'll get her picture on their website though (along with 4000 others).
