Yep, Southeastern. Still have a great shop in Raleigh. Tons of used gear and give much better pricing on trades than KEH and others do.
I came away empty today, but will be heading back in a couple weeks with my eye on an item or two.
I did get a chance to walk around downtown late in the day.

Ever since your visit this summer, a fellow vendor/photog and I have been talking Leica. He's carried it one step further by renting the 262 and 2 lenses for 5 days this week.

Is it the guy that sets up and the very end of the row you set up? Down toward the buildings with the coffee shop and restaurants? If so, I remember talking with him a while at the end of the market.

Yup, he's the one. He used to be the photography editor for the Virginian-Pilot in Norfolk.
Enjoy the time with your families - I had a delight this afternoon talking to my two older American granddaughters who were helping their Ouma with the pumpkin pie.
with the rain, stayed home and visited the 2011 photos of Queen Califia court in the Kit Carson park by my house. Nikki de St. Phalle the sculptor made this her last major work, culturally it is in the middle of nowhere. Nikki died of lung disease due to the materials used in her work. The place used to be open all the time, now it only opens once a month, wonder what its current condition is, need to go.
This is Queen Califia's court, she was the queen of California.
D3 and 8mm 2.8, a really outstanding lens. Today's processing, I and the tools are both better.
Looking at the pictures on this page I think about getting a fisheye or another wide angle but then I come back to reality and acknowledge I don't have the wide angle composition skills that Rafael and Scott demonstrate here.
