Thanksgiving - Thanks To All Of You!

It's been a banner year here at FAB Magic and we have all of you to thank for your support. This is my favorite time of the year. No gifts to exchange - just good family times - and lots of memories.

From my family to your family I wish each and everyone of you a blessed and safe Thanksgiving Holiday.

Where To Put It All ?

Here is just a portion of the illusions and used magic that just came in. Whew! Trying to find a place to put it all - hopefully not for long :) - We have these illusions priced to sell. If you ever wanted a head chopper, Mirror penetration etc..etc..hmmmm I am sure I can find one around here!

Business has been brisk to say the least and I can't thank our customers enough for their loyalty. We have a BIG announcement forthcoming and ..nope..not even going to hint on this one :) - Guess you will just have to stay tuned!

In the meantime we are overhauling our http://www.colonmichigan.org/ site and lots of new info on Michigan Magic Day with our headliner Losander, Gene Anderson, Alan Smola and more! and of course MagiCelebration starring Silly Billy, Baffling Bill,
Kyle Jerard and more to come which can be seen at http://www.colonmichiganmagic.com/

So much going on here in our studios it's unbelievable! New products coming out just in time for Thanksgiving and a SALES SPECIAL I cannot even believe. We have partnered with American Express in bringing you a very special event on Saturday, November 27th...stay tuned!

Doug Henning - A Slice of Magic History

Here is my granddaughter Lily on our loading dock standing next to the Doug Henning 'Things Go Bump In The Night' that just arrived along with nearly a dozen illusions - of course I am thrilled to have it here and yes, it could be yours! It comes completely crated and ready to ship FOB Colon, Michigan. It is a unique piece of magical history and in very nice condition.

Maybe it's just me but I yearn for those wonderful tv specials and the big stage shows. Perhaps...just perhaps...those days will re-emerge once again...I can only hope :)

Check it out here along with other illusions.

Changing Seasons . . .

Where has the summer gone ? This is a view from my deck and for the first time in a long time I can see the St. Joe river. During the spring and summer I could only hear it's babbling sounds and the fish jumping. Now, the deer and wild turkey ( and a few fox) make their way into the backyard. After a long day at the shop it is nice to come home and relax with a cup of coffee and listen to ....well..nothing :) Only a five minute jaunt from the magic shop, this is my slice of heaven.

As we make preparations for the upcoming busy holiday season I have to remind myself that sometimes I need to slow down and enjoy what God and nature has given us. It's too easy these days to get lost in the internet, check our cell phone every hour, watch all of the satellite tv shows.

Now, where is that second cup of coffee :)

Coming Home :)

After tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, my oldest son, Lee, is on his way home :) I can't express into words how very proud we are of him. It's been a long journey and I know he will be glad to have his feet firmly planted on American soil. We are one of the lucky families who get to see their loved ones return safely. Our hearts ache for those who did not make it home.

With Veteran's Day on Thursday we ask everyone to stop, take a moment, and remember those who have served in all of our wars - past and present. It's our freedom they are protecting.

God speed to them all......
