I'm in Utah through Sunday at the 2011 "Founder's Circle" retreat with the top 100 demonstrators. They are pampering us soo much! Today we had a trip to Kanab, to see the facility where they actually make the stamps. I got to die cut a sheet of stamps, and see the process of how a stamp set is made start to finish. It revealed to me the value of our products! There is so much that goes into the process before it ends up in a box that arrives via UPS to my house.
Here I am sitting in the playground in a lovely town park, which Shelli Gardner's family built up years ago. What am I sitting on? Bits of recycled rubber from the stamps! Now that'd be a safe landing for any kid who fell from playground equipment. (Heaven forbid!)

Kristin and I got to go on this trip together this year. (Last year she was on her own, as this is my first year earning this trip). I liked what she said today - "we are here because of each other." I'm sure she's going to cry when she reads this post.
The Kanab facility is a fairly new building, so bright and cheerful. The employees LOVE working there. This is a big group of them waiting for us with signs as we got off the buses today. They gave us high 5's and clapped for us as we walked in for our tour:0)
