It is very much appreciated!! sincerely, Janet Bone
CHECK IT OUT
Just wondering what the deadline is for the September issue.
Also, I'm still pretty certain Christilot is coming near the end of the month, the dates tentatively are July 23-26 or 27th.
Hope all is well with you!
So sorry I couldn't make the event tonight. I was planning to come up but got stuck at work until 8! Next time though.
Sonia
great pics on your site!
