Just one week away from MPG (IL)

[low_48]

Just one week away from today for setup and the start of the 2015 event. Thanks to Jeff, lunch will be free. It will include a drink along with the meal, but since we often have a lot of walk-ins, we may not have enough drinks all day. I plan on bringing some water, but if you prefer other, bring some along. Speaking of bringing, bring plenty of cash for the vendors!!!!!! Still tweaking some techniques on wood dyeing for my demo.
P.S. Don't despair if you don't have high figured wood to try this technique in your shop. I happen to personally know that a certain vendor will be selling some!
SEE YOU THERE!

Looking forward to Saturday

Well, due to work and school, we will not be there for the Friday activities, but plan to be there for the day on Saturday. If it is half as good as last year, it will be worth the 4 hour ride...

Looking forward to seeing some of the friends we made last year, and to show off some of the loot we got last year in completed projects.

See you all Saturday!

I have to work at least a half day Friday, so I will not be there until after 7pm. Planning to stay over Saturday night and bug out early Sunday.

What's that you say?? Kringle?????
