<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Jim,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Larry Yudis here.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I, too, just got back from the GOW (well ... not
just back ... but a few days ago). I had the priviledge of seeing your
friend Jack Miller for the second time in the span of 2 months, the first
time was at the Carvers Campout in Bremen, IN.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I met Jack's lovely wife for the first time at the
GOW. It was very surprising that we had something in common.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Neither she nor I looked forward to spending a week
with Jack when he had only ONE SET of underwear! I don't know, maybe it's
just me, but a guy can get by with 2, maybe 3 days with the same set, BUT A
WHOLE WEEK!!! Ain't no way. Thank goodness there was a K-Mart close
by for Jack to remedy the situation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I still don't know what possessed Jack to tell me
his situation, let alone saying that it was the SECOND time that's happened to
him. I told him I would keep his secret so make sure you don't tell anyone
Jim. I'd appreciate that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good luck at your carving retreat. If it gets
cold and rainy, tell Jack that it helps to put more clothes on to stay warm
instead of walking around in a t-shirt and a pair of bermudas.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Until next time ...</FONT></DIV>

<P>Hi Jim.</P>
<P>Jack Miller here. </P>
<P> I just got home from the GOW in Illinois. Had a great time but
the weather was awful- it was cold, rainy, damp and just plain miserable but
the program was great.</P>
<P>Anyhow I'm getting ready for the retreat this weekend but I don't know how
many students to prepare for. Can you please let me know ASAP? I
need to know how many blanks to prepare and bring along.</P>
<P>Also I have been working on the project for the class at your house in
Florida. I'll bring along what I have done so far for your perusal but
also would like to know If you received the proposal I sent to you
earlier. Let me know what you think, Jim.</P>
