OR Going GOOD-- I met Skip ----OK, Ok, OR means Outdoor Retailer Show- and I have been here in Salt Lake for a few days now telling the OR world about OlovesM Bags. It has been interesting, fun, exhausting, and every other word you can think of that goes with waking up early, talking all day, and going to bed late:)
Who is Skip?? One of those awesome people in the OR world--Skip Yowell is founder of Jansport. It just so happens that my booth was right behind Jansport, as well as I was staying at the same hotel, so I knew that at some point I would run into him, well lucky me-- he heard about the little booth behind his, with this girl selling really fun bags!! (really, that is what he said to me:)
Not only did Skip come over to my booth, but he also signed one of his books for me, gave me his card and told me to email him anytime to ask for advise--very cool:) His book is a great read, and check it out here:
