We're still in St. Petersburg. Our Daughter and the famous GrandKid Miss Lydia flew down to spend a week with us. They fly back to Fergus tomorrow.
I'm doing Shep's workshop with Amy and the others on Thursday, but we'll be heading for Cape Coral early Friday. Hoping to arrive around noon.
Gas prices are down. If you have never attended a live meet, this is the perfect time to get up off your best intentions and join us in Ft. Meyers this weekend. Do something impulsive. You'll never regret it!

I got a truck lettering gig in Ft. Lauderdale after the meet, so I guess we'll drive instead - leaving ATL Thursday morning with my good buddy Philip McCurdy, artist extraordinaire. I've been trying to get this guy to a Letterhead meet for 15 years. This is gonna be a blast. If you're on the fence about attending, get a wild hair and COME ON DOWN.

This is Chris Elliott and I'm here at Cj's place!! Sorry to take so long to get there but I'm leaving out of here in a few minutes and since Timi picked up Jimmy, I should have no other stops between me & the Castle (except for gas, etc.) so I'll see y'all sometime tomorrow!! Please save 3 shirts (one XXL, one Large, & one Medium) for a deal I'll explain to Don when I get there.
Chris
Thanks, Chris

We didn't get to leave Thursday like we planned. Too many deadlines to meet..in fact it's almost 1 am and we just finished 19 small banners for a state gymnastics meet this weekend. We will leave hopefully around 6 am and see yall around 2:30 pm tomorrow. Jusy & Roger

Damn, I hate missing a Dixie Letterhead meet. Look at these people sharing rides across different states, staying up late top get there and pulling together before they get there. There'll be some grinning folks at this one for sure. I'll be checking Head TV for a glimpse of the action.
