Field Trip: Adventures with Pen Friends Pens 'n Pints @_WonderPens @Laywines

A few weeks ago, Eric came to visit us here in Canada! We had a great time adventuring, playing with pens, exploring, adventuring some more, and visiting pen stores (more than once). Here's what we were up to:

An obligatory visit to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, of course. And to Tim Horton's. 

Naturally, there was pen time. This is Eric's Franklin-Christoph Pocket 66 with the Franklin-Christoph Philly Pen Show ink. 

Lamy Petrol!! We went in a few times to inquire about Lamy Petrol ink bottles. Pretty much the day after Eric left, the ink bottles landed. 

We visited Laywines, spent way too much money, and had a great time doing so. And then we went down the street for the best coffee on the planet and hot, freshly baked chocolate chip sea salt cookies. Unreal. 

We also visited Wonder Pens! We kept hoping to see Chicken and Super, but we were fortunate to meet other lovely people (but no cats or pups).

I got some stuff.

We went to Pens 'n Pints!! It was so fun to meet new people, see old friends, and fondle pens galore!

Eric muled a bunch of stuff for me and I picked up some inks from BauerInks - so I'm well stocked. Do not let me get anything else. 

We also did a Pen Powwow, in case you missed it.

What do you do when your pen friends visit? Eric, come again soon!
