at the JJW Concert

Windjammer – the licker sounds more like my black lab named Negrita (called Grita). I call her the bar bitch as she will go anyplace, with anyone anytime and come home happy, innocent and as sweet as can be.
Pepito (called Pepe) is smaller and looks like a golden lab only smaller. If he didn’t try to chase you away and actually licked you then you must be some special person. Either that or you gave him some chicken bones.

Keli and a number of other people somehow got some bad information and showed up at various places today. We were all supposed to meet back at the medical school at noon today. I got there at 1:00 (golf cart problem) and they had this huge stack of forms all filled out by the kids.
I’m in total shock; 50 kids signed up for my photography class. They talked me into teaching two classes, back to back. We are going to put only 12 kids in each class. One will be for 8 through 12 year olds; the other will be 13 and over.
As of today I have commitments for 5 cameras. Obviously we can use more.
Classes start next Saturday. I sure could use some help.

Scubldy, they told me there were 2 locations due to the large number of students who signed up for all the classes and called me personally, told me to go to St. Peters!!! And no one was there!! If you have a number for you know who, please PM it to me so I can find out where my class is next Sat. There is a woman who just moved here a few weeks ago and interested in and was most interested in teaching photography and Evan let her know you are teaching but perhaps could use assistance if you have too many kids. Perhaps you and her should talk.

Deacon, friend in town so was out all day and night. Hurting today. Goma.

my, my, my Keli - what one can read into your post!

Scubaldy, too funny....poor keli...

Deacon, today's the day. And I found out I have 40 kids!!!!! what a shock! Today is our intro day and will take pics and send them to you.
