Well I drove in the driveway this afternoon and wouldn't ya know it. 5 guitar cases sitting on my front porch. I will definately bring one next time. I had a great time meeting and hanging out with all you who came to ASIA as well as meeting several people that haven't found the OLF yet but hopefully will soon. I spent all my allowance and then some. Bob, Steve and Brad all had a great assortment of wood as well as several others and of course John had all his tools and jigs overflowwing his table. I got to see Lances great latest pair and Matts eye popping and ear wowing guitars, especially well demonstrated by Matts friend (and now mine) Steve Couch of the "Betweeners". I got to see and pluck Don Williams smiley face Uke (Don't tell him cause I didn't ask) and I snuck a couple strums on John O's beautiful guitar while he wasn't looking as well. There were lots and lots of very hot jam sessions around the grounds and dorms and always someone to talk guitars with. Last night we were treated to a fine concert fingerstylist (Can't remember his name) followed by a succession of fine ASIA members singin and pickin on stage. The night closed with an ASIA auction that was full of great bargains. I picked up a $75 set of fabulous european curly maple and a very nice vine fingerboard inlay, also $75. Good stuff, be sure to catch the next one. You won't regret it.John How38522.9664930556

John, I truly enjoyed meeting and chatting with you. I'm also glad to see you safely home. Last time I saw you was about 3 hours before your limo was to arrive and you hadn't gone to bed yet since the auction had just ended.

John,

Man, you're every bit as cool as others have said you were... It was a pleasure to get to hang with you. In fact, all the OLF guys were great people. But I felt very out of my element being the only goofball around all those normal folks.
