'Twas the night before French Kiss a Brush in Quebec My trucks loaded (but still my arm hurts like all heck) The panels and paints are all packed up with care With hopes I won't get lost driving up there.
The signwriters all nestled all snug in thier beds, Except for the chat room filled with Letterheads Kissy flying in late night and George doing so, too To a place where all the roads start with a "Rue"
When all of a sudden I awoke with a fright, "NUTS! I still need a room for this Saturday night!" Away to my 'puter I went in a flash "If they don't take the credit card, should I exchange some cash?"
The warm August night and the stars with a glow makes me think "Where the heck did my sleeping bag go?" If no rooms can be found and I'm sh*t outta luck, I'll be spending the night somewhere out in my truck.
"Now, KARYN! now, MARIO! now, PIERRE and NETTIE! On STEVE, BARB, and of course, "BRUSHASAURUS" and MARTY! To the top of the window to the top of the wall! Now paint away! brush away! splash away all!"
So up to the Pierre's in Quebec they all flew, With the box full of One Shot, and a few mahlsticks, too! They were dressed all in aprons, (and a few with cool hats!) Having little concern for the odor of cats! (see other post)
The smalts and the "bagging", all he things we will see Merci, Pierre Tardif. Oh what fun will have we! But I know that at some point someone will raise that fear Sometime Sunday when, at last.......we run out of beer!
(Apologies to Major Henry Livingston Jr. (1748-1828) (previously believed to be by Clement Clarke Moore)
I'm....OUTTA HERE!

We spent the night at a Super 8 in Cornwall, Ontario. Stll have a 3-4 hour drive ahead.
In the rush to gey away, we forgot to pack the hose and mask for my CPAP machine. It's almost impossible to sleep without it so we have to find someplace to buy one. That will delay our arrival an hour or so.
See ya all soon!
