There was a large selection of items, no one hovered over me as I looked yet were readily available. It may be good I don't live here or I'd be there every day. The prices were cheaper than the online stores.

The store is very large, and there is an incredible amount of stuff all over the place. But the staff seems to know where everything is, and they are very friendly and helpful. During our road trip, we tried to stop in at at least one #RowbyRow2016 (https://www.rowbyrowexperience.com) quilt shop in each state that we passed through. Always quilting was definitely out of our way, but we're glad we stopped in to get one of our California Row by Row selections.

I stopped in at Geoffrey's in San Carlos to get some gold jewelry appraised and find out what…read morethey'd pay. From the start, the staff came across as short and borderline rude. The appraiser seemed agitated and rushed, and the offer she gave me for the gold was a pawn-shop-level number. The next day I took the same gold to a well-reviewed and reputable goldsmith in Marin and was offered 40% more. That's a big gap for identical pieces.

I only recently met Lisa through my wife Kimmy and I must say Kimmy has very good taste in people…read more My mother was an accomplished artist herself and I think Lisa shows real talent. She uses mainly Acrylic Paint and a knife to paint and has a gift for perspective, color, and balance. I was especially impressed by her subtle use of blue in a small painting of birches, which really pops out at you almost like 3D. I know too how difficult painting water can be and she tackled that nicely in a recent boat painting. Again I was both surprised and pleased by her use of color here. I am getting ready to publish a new book of poetry and hoping that I will be able to talk Lisa into doing some painting that will capture the mood of my work! Keep your eye on this young lady! I know that I am!

Everything about it was easy, and the whole team was amazing. I start every morning by looking at the murals. I take a breath, look at it for 5 minutes, and then I can go into my office and work. The kids are still hanging out by them at every recess, they enjoy them as a part of their life every day. I didn't expect that parents would walk up to me constantly to thank me. That was a great surprise. One lady cried in my office, 'it is so beautiful!' The school just became instantly better!
