What a wonderful weekend we had in Quebec! It flew by in a blur. After a 10 hour drive Monday, we find ourselves back at home. Did it really happen or was it all a dream? We know many of you are asking yourself the same question.
The photos are starting to come in. I'm doing my best to get them formatted and online. Here's a few to get started. French Kiss A Brush 2003
As usual, there are some photos we missed. I'm after more photos of Pierre, his Family and the wonderful gang of helpers assembled by Pierre's Father. Send us your favorite photos saved at 72dpi and no wider than 600 pixels.
We're also interested in hearing from those who were attending their first meet. Who or what created your favorite memory of the weekend?
With two meets the same weekend, it's going to be a busy week. Everything I said here also applies to those who were in Tomahawk. Get us your stories and photos!

Thanks Steve. I scanned a few last night & intended to some more today, but we had another nasty storm come through. As soon as I can, I'll get some picts to you.
Before anyone else notices, I did discuss the American Flag with Pierre & set him straight about the proper way to hang it. (a "thing" about the flag was my inheritance from my grandfather)

Steve & Barb, you are such enthusiastic and dedicated letterheads! I would like to say how much we all appreciate you spending hours in your car to get to these meets and giving such good coverage of the events here on the bullboard. It is always a pleasure to see your familiar smiling faces at these events. Sincerely, Heather Moodie

I'm having a great day! Thanks for the pix, guys! ooooohhhh I really missed being there too, was thinking about you all when I was in Tomahawk. Was thinking about doing a sign double sided, "wish we were there! wish you were here!" Now, this is almost as good as being in two places at once! well, shucks, almost!!! Glad you had such a great meet too!!! Hope to see you guys in the near future. S.W.A.K.!

Steve, I looked at Steven's pictures and one of them seems to resemble a picture from the Sandcastle meet, but it appears he used a light blue. Did he get you again?

Ditto. I am actually enjoying getting back to work after my month vacation to Scotland, England, Ireland & Quebec. Pierre's meet was ideal, just the thing I needed to get me feelin' groovy about signs again. A message to all of yins, if there is a meet nearby, GO. It is worth it, just like Letterville is worth the fifty smackaroos. I don't want to hear any whining like "My cat's vet bill is too high for me to go to a meet", etc. Meets are a kick in the butt, a great motivator, a social opportunity to be with others who are as crazy as yourself, cheaper than therapy,a place to learn new tricks, and just the best time ever. Thank you, Pierre. Thank you, everybody. Wasn't it great? Love- JILL
