Hey, Corey, thought I'd stop in and say Good Morning. What are you up to? Do you know what you'll be doing this summer about the time of the reunion? If we do anything, it'll probably be the Sunday of the weekend, 7/20 since we have the boys and won't bring them to a bar. We'll have to see what else is going on that weekend we may be able to do. We don't do babysitters and wouldn't for our long drive down there anyway. I know you mentioned some time ago that you may be doing a workshop or seminar then???? Hope you had a peaceful Easter! Take care-
