Strange Interval

You received KTB #173 a bit late, but with KTB #174 very soon thereafter, and you probably wonder what is going on. The weather here in Florida had been extremely strange throughout December and January, and we had people off with colds and flu almost every day, so we were late getting to the printer. On top of that, the print shop had a breakdown on their main press and so KTB #173 was quite late. But we were putting KTB #174 together all that time, and so it mailed out approximately a week after KTB #173. Just thought you should know, so you don’t think we are totally crazy here at HQ.

“Patrols” for 2004

We have some great patrols planned for this year and apparently, many Members are excited about them. We already have about a dozen signed on for each of our Germany “Patrols”, so book soon to be certain that you have a place on the bus. Remember, we can take only 40 and there are already 12 signed aboard, so with my poor math skills – that leave about 28 places.

Many of the wives were with us last year (2003) and had a great time – shopping! This year, we have organized some actual shopping afternoons for those who want to go. Bring the plastic!
