My hero...
Envelope – Free stationary taken from the Marriott while on a business trip.
Snowflake address label – sent to me free and had to be used up.
Stained glass stamp – It was more then three feet away from me when I decided to get them so you know I didn’t see them clearly
Butterfly and Sunflower stickers on the back – Also free and required because the glue on the envelope was so old it no longer stuck.

FYI on meeting place

Post by Alicia »

Let’s figure on meeting in the parking lot of the former Food Land in Gauley Bridge at noon on Friday.
BTW, the former Food Lion is now a Dollar Store (or perhaps Dollar General). We had a great time on the Lower Gauley yesterday & looking fwd to going again Friday (I have to go to work to rest in-between!). Thanx to Dave for orchestrating again.

Ugh I hate it when life gets in the way. I will not be able to make it this year. Going to try and go the last weekend of this year's releases. You guys have fun, stay safe and take a few photos.

I plan to drive up Fri morning to join this trip in a kayak. I've paddled the Lower Gauley only once (earlier this season), so I'll need coaching on the lines.

Heading up Friday night. Bringing the kiddo along, so we'll likely be on the Upper New Saturday.
I kneel before you m'lady. No really, I can't stand up. Could you please help me out of my boat?
