VentHaven Convention-Day 4

Today I visited the revered VentHaven Museum in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky. As expected, it was an amazing collection. Seeing the number and variety of figures was inspiring. I liked the hundreds of photos of ventriloquists on the walls almost as much as the figures. Jay Johnson was there graciously visiting with fellow visitors. We got to spend a few minutes chatting. I'm a regular reader of his blog and a great admirer of his talent, so it was special to share a few moments with him.

Jeff Dunham's lecture was very entertaining. He blended good advice with a preview of his upcoming DVD release. He's chosen a fun theme for his show and gave us a few minutes live with each of his most popular characters.

Still ahead tonight... the closing show featuring MC Steve Kissell, Bob Isaacson, Nina Conti, Dan Horn and the aforementioned Jay Johnson.

I head back early tomorrow morning having made many new friends.
