: : Wanna talk Gathering? OK! This Trader has been busy as you can see from the photo with Rich`s note above. I`ve also been working on some really nice "lined wool Native bags" for the Trading Post. These are all hand stetched and will be decorated in an authintic 18th century manner. I`ll have a few pics to post later in the week just to wet your apetite.
: : Then today, while driving home from 30 miles away, my oil pressure gage dropped to 0 in my new truck. I checked it out and everything seamed OK. I made it to a mechanic and it turned out the be the pressure regulator. No biggie, $85 tomorrow morning and I won`t have to cancel the trip in June.
: : Now, I gotta get back to those bags.

: Ooooooooh, can't wait to see them!! Well, Adele, I hope you will have plenty of wampum with you! I can see the airplanes back to the UK are gonna be HEAVY!!! I GOTTA have an authentic 18th century 'lined wool native bag'! And I gotta have an authentic...
: Gee! I hope we're not gonna be stopped at US customs for trying to smuggle out 'authentic' colonial artifacts!! By all accounts, our French Trader's merchandise could EASILY be taken for the real thing!! OK Adele, we've got to get together and get our stories straight! And we could try bamboozling those customs guys with our accents - they can't pin anything on us, if they can't understand us!!
: Ah well, we've got what, approximately 11 weeks to come up with something?! Meanwhile, FT, you just get a'working on those bags, so that we can carry home all our prized LOTM paraphernalia, ie. raffle prizes, souvenir key ring/boxes(?) whatever, souvenir programmes, etc. And - so glad to hear that the new truck won't be letting you down come June!!!
: Take care, all,
: Kate.
Well Miss Katie - your Scottish brogue might bamboozle but my crystal clear English accent just won't work - so I will just have to use the old stand by.......a little flutter of my eyelashes over my big blue eyes and a coy smile.....failing that, slip 'em a bottle of scotch and we'll call it quits!
Like the sound of those bags FT, my travelling light idea has now developed into a change of undies and my walking boots(!)- gotta have room for all my purchases!!!
