    I feel compelled to be at the computer and by the phone just in case Brent. After all, they do send me a paycheck a couple of times a month. ;)

    Just received notification from Tshirt Guy, my order is being shipped this week. Ordered back in February. If you want the Tshirt, for the NC2B, my best advice is to order soon. It took him almost a month to fill my order.

    Ron, just guessing here, but I believe Stephen waited until a good number ordered before shipping out? Either way I should have ironed those details out and communicated.

    Ron, just guessing here, but I believe Stephen waited until a good number ordered before shipping out? Either way I should have ironed those details out and communicated. 
    My conversation with Steve, was that he had gotten busy, and that he was behind. The shipping date he had posted for the order, when purchased, was incorrect, he also said. That is why I inquired.
    No big deal, really, but I have some extended travel coming up, and I wanted to get things situated prior to departure.
    After 10 days of the posted process date, which accompanied my order, I sent an email (last Thursday I think) figuring 10 days for shipping to my home is a bit long, (even for the slowest parcel delivery service) so I thought I provided incorrect information.
    He did get back to me, via email, the next day. I called on Monday, as per his offer, and he told me he would get them out Wednesday.
    I was running into crunch time because I have some extended travel coming up, and did not want them delivered while away, and heading to the NC2B.
    Had I known the process date was incorrect, I likely would have done something different.
    I just think it is spring youth sports season, and he had a lot of orders. Good for him.
    The reason I suggested that people get their orders in sooner than later, was because of what he told me, thinking it might help them, so it would not be a last minute, late delivery.
    I am good, mine should arrive the before I leave. I appreciate his help on this.

    Is there anything going on Friday night?  I’m starting to plan the details of my trip and get reservations set.

    If nothing is going on Friday, I may drive from Cincy to Asheville and spend all day Friday there and get a hotel.  Then make the drive Saturday morning to BB.

    Likewise for Saturday night.  Are there festivities that I should plan on hanging around for?  Just planning my trip and looking for insight.  Thanks.

    Typically, there is a social get together for those staying at the camp ground. Both Friday evening and Saturday after the event.

    We plan to arrive around late afternoon Friday and get setup at the campground. Any and all is welcome to stop by and have a beer. (Discreetly in a cup obviously).
