Lake Washington 130 Homes was a Seattle Boat Show “Best Selling Book” for the second year in a row. The Boat Show has been in late January and early February of each year and will be for the foreseeable future. I was at the last two shows signing copies of LW 130 Homes, playing on HDTV a multi-media presentation of the Evening Magazine segment on the book plus the book’s highlights. Books were available for purchase and I was signing them along with having an informal Q&A including my experiences in photographing the mansions and writing and self publishing this unique book. In addition I discussed and presented information on our plans for “LW Map of the StarsTM” cruise-tours featuring the book and a soon-to-be-available map. My table and exhibit were at Captain’s Nautical Supplies booth – Concourse 2237. I will on be at the same place next year.
Attendance and activity this year was up from last year’s low. Boat sales and interest are picking up. Hopefully this is a sign that the area's economy is also picking up.
