daffodils are the true harbingers of spring in the Smokies and throughout the United States. the flower stems appear suddenly, magically, in March, where they appear for several weeks in colors of golden yellow, white and bi-colors, releasing their delicious fragrance for all to breathe, to greet a new season, a new world, to punctuate new life.

March 5, 2016 Dear VIP Buyers and Exhibitors, The Torch Has Passed. Tom and I thank you for the loyalty you have extended to The Norton Shows over the past twenty-nine wonderful years. We have worked together, grown together and have succeeded together as well. We are reminded during this moment of reflection of the old roads our ancestors built across America, indeed, across the entire world. These roads were hued, dug and worked, accompanied by backaches, torn muscles and headaches. But, together we built them. And adjacent arteries which spun off the main roads, creating interstates, enabling us to network, to spread our wings and fly. And fly we did. The Norton Shows, with lots of love and work by all of us grew to occupy 800 booths and attract more than 21,000 buyers. Those were heady days. Then the economy took it toll...with all shows...we remember when we had to tell exhibitors, “Sorry, we don’t have any available booths...we’ll add you to our waiting list.” Our daughter, Nikke Norton and her son, Hunter Norton Johnston are now at the helm of The Norton Shows. Both are ready, willing and equipped to take over our valuable charge...our VIP Buyers and Exhibitors...and to take you back, cresting and breaking our past records. Nikke, a University of Tennessee alumni, has always been the sole owner of The Gatlinburg Gift and Variety Show and Hunter, newly graduated from the East Tennessee State University with a degree in History and Criminal Law and Investigation, has worked with us since infancy. They know the ins and outs of the business and learned from us as Tom and I did from our parents, owners of Mortons’ Antique Shows. Nikke and Hunter are equal partners of Gatlinburg Apparel and Jewelry Market. Tom and I will be involved as counselors should they have a question. We are pleased with new ideas Hunter and Nikke are tossing back and forth, all in an effort to grow The Norton Shows. They will utilize the foundation of the old road which we built to erect even greater routes to success, enlarging the interstates to incorporate overpasses, bridges, tunnels, encompassing new methods of advertising, technology, networking, video, bookkeeping, etc., efforting to enable all of us to grow, to be even more successful. Nikke and Hunter are not afraid to work. Hunter has wonderful attributes and is very inventive and is a kind, thoughtful young man but will stand his ground. May we ponder...let them help you. And you can help them. Tom and I plan to spend more time enjoying our homes in Gatlinburg and in Florida. I’m looking forward to getting back to my gardening and doing things for which we simply did not have the time or energy. And writing the great American novel. We still have a few places on our bucket list to visit, Scotland, Ireland and Spain. And return trips to Paris, exploring more of France. And Cuba. We are planning a trip for late summer. Want to go with us? After that, when we are too “old” to explore Europe, we plan to book Amtrak, head north and then circle through the western part of the United States, visiting nature we were introduced to as children by western movies, spun by John Ford, Walter Huston, John Wayne and so many other fabulous artists. Right now, I’d just like to sit on our balcony overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, sip a bit of coffee and contemplate about the things we need to do, laughing, knowing that we’ll never do them. Looking forward to days without an agenda. Again, we thank you for your friendship, your loyalty and just the act of all of us being ourselves. We look forward to visiting restaurants and venues in Knoxville, Sevierville. Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and cities across the south and north, seeing you and exchanging smiles, hugs and handshakes. Each of you have enriched our lives a hundredfold. Blessings…May God hold you in the palm of his hand and whisper his love… Tom and Linda Norton
