Any conflict with having a meet around June in Pontiac, Illinois in 2009? I know there's some meets in 2008, so we're looking at '09 to see if there's any conflicts. It has been approved by the city council and will be a free mmet for the dogs. Insurance has been secured and that was the hold up in the past.
Let us know of any other planned walldog meets for '09 that we don't know about.

I'm thinking 2010 might be busy but 09 is pretty much open....if you have a meet count on us. Beer, blues and maybe a wall or two!

Hey Sonny... we can all bring our grandkids by then.(no kidding, I'm gonna be a grandma in April '08) I'm up for it. Might be organizing a walldog meet around here about then.

Hell Nancy, my Grandkids will be old enough to paint by then. Not sure I will bring the boyz, but it would take a whole lot of serious schtuff to keep me and Miss Dora away from a meet in Pontiac.
Looking forward to it already.

Illinois sounds like a nice place. I would like to meet your family Bill, and I've never been there. That's two good reasons for me to go!

And I'm only 2-1/2 hours from Bill and Jane, Deri. You know we'll be there to work. It'll be good to see you again.
Set aside 2 0r 3 extra days to go to Chicago as long as you're in the area. From Bill and Jane's it's about 90 miles - if I remember what Bill said. Short distance to go for great museums - great sports teams - incredible architecture - and the activities around Lake Michigan.
We Midwesterners have been known to be quite hospitable, haven't we, Bill and Jane?

Sounds good to me Bill. I look forward to slinging more paint along Route 66.
Speaking of meets, we had a kick-off event for the Walldogs on Nicollet, Minneapolis meet last weekend. People were happy, money was raised and two walls were painted though they both need a little more. As soon as I catch my breath and get a little of my shop work caught up, I'll get something put together and out in the mail.

Hey Bill: Chris said to tell you that sounds good. Keep us posted on details...
