I've been stuck here engraving coffee cups for a couple of days -- and haven't had a chancve to acknowledge the recent entries to the wrench contest. There've been at least a half-dozen, and when things slow down tonight (I hope) I'll get notes off to all of you that your Paypal entry thingie has arrived. Except you, Hooley -- your note has shown up and I'll send a note back to you later on. As for the rest of you that did enter - thanks. For those of you that didn't -- why not?
There -- that's about it for now. Oh, yeah -- we didn't spend 100% of yesterday engraving. The local Blues Society held a gathering to announce the bands that'll be here for the Labor Day weekend Blues Festival and we just had to go to that, and then one band we've heard before - that'll be at the Festival - was playing at a local watering joint. I could've gone home without hearing them, but Nancy insisted. Local guys -- Travis Swanson and the Nightriders. Decent -- and better yet, free. But tonight it'll be thank you, thank you, and thank YOU.
