Thanks for the thought Cardinal, but not so fast there... :-)

Kinko's IS where I have them done.  Matter of fact, I just had another
20 printed so if anyone needs one that didn't get one, fire away :-)  I
haven't sent them out to a ' poster printer' since that very first year-
I learned THAT lesson REAL fast :-)

In a normal year, I put back the proceeds from my retail plant sales
(hardware stores, festivals, and such) and that usually covers the
fields event.  This year was an exception as I was out of town during
that period.  I apologize again for selling stuff at the event. I
promise to do better next year :-P

I don't mind the event costing me some.  I've paid more money for less
fun, I can assure you :-)  I don't work this da*n hard at this business
not to be able to do as I please occasionally.  There are other folks
that do what they can for the support of the group without complaint. 
I'm thinking of Jeff S & the chileheadsonline, Brad & Jeff on the poster
work, Alex & Renee burning the CD's, all the FOOD that is brought to the
event and so forth.  We each do what we can :-)

I solemnly promise that if the costs become great enough as to endanger
the event, I will let folks know.  Fair enough?  :-)

Abby survived the rafting.  Within 30 seconds of putting into the river
though, the entire raft (except the guide) got dumped into a sinkhole at
the start of a rapids & two of the folks were injured.  My wife thought
it was a blast :-)
