Hi Mark,
Glad your class went well ! I guess we didn't wear them out in Martin's Ferry the previous weekend. I have got to carve the new "hound dog" roughout for next year! Sure be glad when its available!
Guess we will have to wait another year till they get back this way again!

Jim:
Phil and Vicki said the convict seems to get the most attention.

[Jim OH]

Convict probably gets the most attention out of fear of what he might do if he gets loose from that ball and chainHappy
