    It was really nice to be included with the really big boys and girls...

    Did you notice that the bags sction had 36 manufactures with over 450 bags and top quilts listed, probably double that number if sizes per model are included... AND...

    JRB was the only manufacture with two bags/TQ below 16 oz. Actually the lightest and tied with three others for second lowest also.

    The lightest down bag/TQ for 40* summer range:
    JRB Shenandoah...15 oz.... $190
    JRB Stealth......... 16 oz.... $210
    FF Viereo..............16 oz... $239
    MB SS#5..............16 oz.... $234
    WM HL.................16 oz.....$270

    On the other end of the spectrum there were only five bags/TQ rated at 15* or below and under two pound...Tow of which were our JRB quilts.

    The lightesr down bags/TQ 15 or below winter range:
    JRB ORM...........25 oz........$300
    JRB HSS............27 oz.......$ 325
    SD Vapor...........31 oz......$440
    TN Lazer 900......31 oz......$650
    WM Apache.......32 oz.......$410

    Tops overall in both light weight and value in both summer and winter.

    ALCON,

    The move went well... We only dropped three quilts but none of them broke...

    We were physically in on Monday and only suffered 3 hours of down time without phones or internet... Best was that we manage to keep the "Same or next day shipping standard" through the move...A little chaotic at times this week, but all shipped IAW the JRB standard...Phrase of the week... "Have any idea where the ____ are?" ....Standard answer, " In a box somewhere"...

    Planning to host an Open House sometime near the end of the month for those within driving range... More details and Invite later.

    The first of three new tarps has arrived... Just need to get the web page up...And, yes we will bring some to the MAHHA this month.

    Our new contact info is here ... Note, there is now a toll free contact number.
