• We will have door prize drawings of offerings supplied by our favorite vendors.
• We will have a Show and Tell table where those who participate can show a pen or other item they have turned, and explain all about it.
• We will set up a table where people can leave things they are giving away to the membership, not things for sale.

No more Caddy for me Bill!! It went to the big scrap yard in the sky. I think they made 10 Toyota's out of it :eek: I know have the Blue Bullet. It's a 2004 Subaru WRX Wagon. I've made quite a few trips to the Chaotic Construction Covered City of Indy.

I told Chuck I would bring some Krispy Kreme Donuts with me for everybody. Just shoot me a pm with how many dozen's we will need.

If any of you guys are up, from 6-8 am there is a wonderful radio show on public radio. It's called American Roots. It's mainly about early 20's-30's Jazz from New Orleans and they do alot on Bluegrass music, but it is a great radio show. I can listen to it almost all the way to Indy. If you're near Louisville, it's on 91.9 fm.

Now that we're after the fact, it was a great meeting as usual. Kudos to everyone who worked to hard to bring it all together!

I'll be sorting through the photos I took and posting them in the next day or so. So stay tuned for a note on where to find them!
