[Woodcarver] GOW as experienced by a "First Timer".

[Kathy Sylvest]

I would like to add my two cents as a first timer, too. I say a big
DITTO to all the good things already said. The Dilletts, Bob, and Sandy
did an outstanding job of planning and executing such a wonderful event.
I saw, again, that hospitality is not limited to the South. My thanks to
everyone who helped me enjoy such a good time.

Kathy with a "K"
