You just never know...

You just never know when you'll run into another Hermes collector.

There I was in a small furniture store in rural Kentucky, when one of the associates came up to me and said " I love your Hermes bag ! " (I was carrying a 32cm rigide Kelly.) Turned out she has a 35cm croc Kelly and some H scarves. We had a wonderful conversation about Hermes and other common interests (we both collect 18c European porcelain). Now, I've found a new friend near my new home.

Life sometimes gives us wonderful surprises !

What a wonderful story! Makes me want to visit Kentucky again! Both Kentucky and Tennessee are gorgeous states. I love that both figure prominently in my family's 18th and 19th century history.

I agree with coco-nut. I usually only make it to Louisville but Kentucky is gorgeous and my grandma is from Kentucky. Lovely memories.

It is a small Hermes world.
Hermes lovers generally are so sweet even if the SAs are not always.
Wonderful story.

I love Kentucky (especially the Horse Park near Lexington ). How wonderful that you found a new friend there!
