Boy! UPS is on top of things now! It wasn't even suppose to be there until tommorow, it's pretty rare that they get things delivered early. Did the box hold up o.k.? I really wanted to put it in a tube but I wasn't able to find one big enough.

Alright Glad to hear she doing fine and back on course. Hey Steve how far are you from Spearfish, there's a dynamite sign artist who lives there name Tim Peterson, maybe he might want to jump in on this before it goes out to the next destination, I have his number I will email it to you. Just a thought, if it's ok with Coop?

A wise woman once said... "Slap a 3-day label on it and UPS won't lose it."
Oh, that was me!
Pay the extra $2 and keep sending the banner using the 3-day vs. the Ground shipping and we should not lose it again... plus it gets there faster.

P.S. Noooooo, I'm NOT blaming anyone, or implying ANYthing. This is just one of the lessons I have learned the hard way (more than once), so I thought I'd share my "UPS inside information"... again.

If you say this guy is good, he must be dynamite! Let me know ASAP. We're already a couple of weeks behind, so if he wants to jump in let's have him jump quick!

Coop, He's top notch! and knows how to use a brush, not to worry. Now to get him to sign it is a different story, I can't answer for his schedule.

I sent you e-mail last night, did it get lost in cyberspace? If so, I would like you to send her to:
David Overholt 210 Cedar St Pemberville, OH, 43551
Thanks!

Glad to see Baby Doll's back in good hands!!!
Coop, just talked to Tim Peterson & he's in touch with Steve so if he can sign it without holding up the schedule he will. Cisco's right about Tim, awsome talent & a great guy to boot. (Tim hosts the Black Hills Gold Rush meet - check out the coverage in the AMAL mag) I also let Griz (another letterhead from Spearfish who also turns out some nice stuff) know about it. These guys aren't anti-social or anything, they just don't mess around with the internet much (Griz said "Hey, we just got dial phones out here, now ya want me to learn internet too?). Griz uses a 'puter at the shop & I don't think Tim even owns one (his shop name is "the Flat Earth Sign Co,") but does just fine without one. Some of these Midcoast Letterheads are kinda low profile Tim asked if Baby Doll's gonna be at the Milwaukee Panel Jam, that'd be a great stop for her since it's an international meet. That's just a suggestion, not a demand, I know your busy enough already & would hate to see you with grey hair Along the same line, any chance of posting a picture of her? My curiosity is about to get the best of me so how about it, just a little peek?

I talked to Tim this morning and he was in Sturgis yesterday and won't be back until next Wed. I don't have the time either to drive up there, so he says to forge his name, or if its gonna be at the international meet in Aug. he can sign it there.

I've often wondered why there aren't pics posted of the banner. Is there a reason? A surprise element or ? Alot of us won't even get this banner, so we'd love to see how it looks too.
Go ahead and send it on to Dave Draper. As far as her making the meet in Milwaukee, I just don't know if I can make it happen. I want the banner to get to the 'heads that signed up for it first. If she moves pretty quick through the rest of July, maybe we can get her to Milwaukee. Let's just sit back and see what happens. She's already missed Cornwall, and Bruce & Dana's wedding. So I'm not making any promises.
If someone wanted to take some more, and post 'em that would be purdy kewl!
