I posted on Facebook my true feelings about it. I understand the circumstances behind it but it’s just not the same being face to face with other federalists! I do appreciate what NFB is doing to continue with the convention. So far I have been in out the meetings and the exhibit hall! Today is the Krafers Devision and I will make a strong effort to go in and check it out. Again please don’t think I’m complaining or giving up! I’m not!! Also it would be nice to hear from any of the Ohio Chapter even the Cleveland Chapter via phone call or txt to see how I’m doing.
