Hi, folks,
We were looking forward to heading to Springfield next week, but after sizing up the immense amount of sorting of 1963-66 loose parts that we STILL have to do, we've decided that our summer "free" time will be better-spent staying close to home and taking care of business. We're really bummed about not going to the International Meet, but our reality is that our sorting project along with some home and shop maintenance have to take priority this summer.
As many of you know, both of us are full-time educators, and this year has been a really busy one for both of us at school (Lori started a principalship at a new school and Will had his hands full with Student Council and Knowledge Bowl). Add to that various family health-issues, and our time has been stretched thin. Hence, we are crazy-behind in the somewhat-final stages of sorting the last of the 1963-66 seat covers. It's slow-going because each separate piece has to be carefully examined to determine whether it's good enough to save and sell.
We know that many folks have been waiting to hear whether we've found requested parts, and we really appreciate everyone's patience. This has been a bigger undertaking than we imagined it would be, and we are hoping that the next 6 weeks will be productive enough to have all the loose parts sorted and inventoried which will free us up to get orders out.
Best wishes and safe travels to all who are headed to Springfield!
