I know that there are some of you who aren’t attending convention. I am looking to see if any of you would be interested in attending the convention banquet via zoom. I was thinking that we could either make arrangements to get together at a restaurant, or we could even meet at our house. I would like to have several people, but I will take what I can get. I think we could have a lot of fun, and maybe we will be one of the lucky ones and get dropped in on. This would also give us some time to enjoy each others company. If we are going to do this, I need to know as soon as I can, so that I can get the ball rolling. Please consider, and I hope you will come.</p><p class=MsoNormal>Please contact me off list at my email or phone listed below.</p><p class=MsoNormal>Let’s have a celebration of our own and have some fun.
