Every year Patsee and I have an open house... kind of a (wine and cheese thing) for the people that come in early for Fred's Meet in Oklahoma City.
The meet is just a month away and we're looking forward to meeting new and old friends once again...
The fun will begin Thursday March 11th from 6 pm to 10pm or so...it gives us all a chance to get aquainted before the meet, party a little and still get a good nites rest before the meet starts on Friday the 12th.
Right now we anticipate having all the fun here at the house,(depending on the head count)we may move it to the shop...so stay tuned to this post and we'll let you know where to head
If you need instructions on how to find us e-mail us at <jumpers@itlnet.net>
Leave a post here if you can come (or if your thinking of coming)...we're looking forward to seeing you! oh...and come hungry we always have food left over! Beer wine and soft drinks will be served.
Hope you can make it!

We (2) are driving straight thru on Thursday from central Illinois and we guesstimate a 10+ hour drive. We will try to get there if we aren't too late. Looking forward to the meet!

Darn Jane, looks like I am going to miss meeting you again!
Fred's is out again this year. I still can't walk without pain, real pain. So a meet is out of the question.
Maybe next year I can see glue chipping up close and personal. Y'all have fun.

Bump
Geez Monte ... it doesn't seem like a year since we enjoyed your hospitality before (and after) Fred's Meet.
Doesn't time fly when you are having "fun"
Can't make it this year, but we will do it again I promise.
Also I highjacked RT this year He can't come either! Yer home is going to be awefully quiet at nights ... except for "baby doll" pining away in the storeroom missing RT

Monte - I will not be able to be there Thursday night but Mike and I are driving up Friday morning and should arrive around noon. It will be great to see you and the rest of the gang again.
These things have become more of a family reunion than a Letterhead gathering. Fred always puts on a great show and makes you feel special.
Time to break out the kit and brushes. Just about the only time I do any hand lettering is at a Letterheads meet. I guess that is why they are always remembered.
See ya next week.
