If you have not been to the show in February, now is the perfect time to visit the Southwest and shop for some beads for the upcoming holiday season the city is much less chaotic in September than it is during the rat race of February. Hotel rates are cheaper, car rentals are much more readily available, and the congestion of the big show is not here. If you have shopped the big show, but need to replenish your supplies, now is a great time to come too.
