I will be there. Driving out Weds morning and should arrive by supper time weather permitting.
Andrew, I have the photos and magazine article for you as promised.
Have a safe trip all...........
David Sheehan will be there on Saturday! This will be my first time and I look forward to meeting many of you who have helped me on my engraving journey thus far.
We can't make it this year, but are interested in trying for next year. We would like to bring down our jewelry (40-50% engraved) if we can put up a set of shelves alongside the table w/o having to buy an extra space.
Would love to meet everyone, put faces with the names and see all the exciting work!
Will
I will be arriving Wednesday afternoon along with my brother. Looking forward to seeing all the great friends I have come to know being a member of FEGA.
First, I must apologize for starting back in to posting once more, after returning from Scotland, and then immediately disappearing out of view once more. I have been struck down by the severest winter bug of my life, bed ridden for a long time. Now at day 18, I am past being contagious, yet severely weakened. Doctor's orders, I have had to cancel both FEGA and a subsequent flight on to Colorado. I was so looking forward to the great one stop shopping of FEGA, seeing friends and making new ones, and of course keeping up my tradition of photographing the show and putting it on line. I will especially miss our tradition of having some informal music in the evenings. I hope Fred, Roger, and others will continue this, especially so that Barry had a nice tradition going, hosting some singin' 'n' pickin' evenings in the Exec, Suite. I do know that Chris Norman will be there with his world class flute and pipe playing.
By the way, I have a ticket reserved and paid for the Saturday banquet, I would be happy to donate it to anyone going to Vegas who does not have a banquet ticket, yet who may want to attend. Just see Betty Strosin, I will let her know it is up for grabs.
I so much regret this situation, having enjoyed so many years in a row at FEGA.
I'll be getting in Thurs. afternoon. I'm with Roger in wishing Rod a more speedy recovery! Rod, your presence will be greatly missed by all, my friend. We'll tip a few in your honor.
