Would you like to try to get together just before the Satisfaction

8pm
in Columbia College's Conaway Center, 1104 South Wabash Ave, ground
floor?

I'd love to meet any and all of you during SGC. I'm open really anytime (unfortunately). I have to look at the

schedule of SGC events. I'll have a few prints on display at the Noyes Center in Evanston where I print occasionally, right off

the Purple Line. Throw out a date/time and we'll make it happen.

I'd love it if San Antonio were kept as an option for future summits. I
would also love to attend the 2010 summit in Nevada but will need to clear
some hurdles before it can become a reality though.

Interestingly, Asilomar, which is now quite expensive, was once dirt cheap
($12-18 a night). My husband and I (who were even poorer then) spent an
overnight there once a year. The famous architect, Julia Morgan, designed
several of the original buildings which, ironically, were the cheapest. I'm
writing an essay of Hitchcock's Vertigo and discovered that Judy's working
class hotel, the Empire, is now an ultra luxury place called, appropriately,
Hotel Vertigo!

Sorry if this is off-topic.

Subject: [Baren 38485] Exchange 40 time lines and other stuff
Send Message: To this poster

Dear Members of Exchange 40,

This is just a reminder of the time lines for Exchange 40. The deadline for dropping out of the exchange without penalty is April 1st. There is still one person on the waiting list. And as you know, the deadline for having your prints turned in to your coordinator is May 1. This means that in order to meet the deadline, you should plan on having your prints in the mail at least a week before the deadline.

I will be collating and scanning your prints as they come in, so if everything goes as planned I will be able to get your packets of prints in the mail back to you by May 3rd at the latest. Of course the only way I will be able to do that is if I get everyone's prints by May 1st.

I hope the work on your prints is going well. It is a terrible time for carving and printing here on the central coast of California. The peach and plum trees are in full bloom, and the ground as been softened by the winter and spring rains so it is just perfect for digging. This is good because I found a deal for sixty roses that I just couldn't pass up.

So if it is still winter where you are, think on the bright side. You don't have to worry about spring planting and other chores around the yard, so (unlike me) you have time to work on designing, carving, and printing while I will continue to gamble that the work will get done before my old and unreliable back says enough already!

Hi ,I am going like many to sgc .
people wish to meet up, but many of us have other activities we are
committed to.
I thought we could pick a event, and try and meet up like the

Complimentary Coffee and Pastries
Location: Columbia College, Hokin Gallery, 623 S. Wabash Ave, 1st floor
Date: Thursday, March 26
Time: 9 am - Noon

and meet in what ever is the back right corner at say 9:30 or does someone
have another idea along these lines

I'll be helping at the Hui Press (publishers booth)
