Atlanta is shut down for the most part.  Sideways sleet in Woodstock.  Wind + ice equals working from home.  Tony, need any supplies? ;) ;)

Figured as much. Sorry Sonny we're good. I try to keep our vendors down to two. Plus Brannon for screen stretching........they do an awesome job, especially after switching to laquer adhesive.

Yes but shld be OK. Mt P is connected to Chas by two series of bridges. Its essentially an island. One is shut down. If the other one goes we're stranded.

Ive been in need of a vacation for many months.  Ive got my girl, my dogs, my guitars and some beer. This is actually what I was looking for as time off. I just hope the lights stay on.

St Thomas would be nice though.

Eric if you ever make it to St. Thomas stop by and see my printer friend Billy D. Then you can write it off!
But seriously after that get on the ferry to st John.

Nothing comes to mind but didn't we talk about a wing pallet that would fit on both Hopkins and M&R a while?

Is that a single wing?  that does sound familiar.  Theres been a decline in that but I expect it back soon.

A single wing retractable would be appealing to me and maybe some others. The ability to take it from a manual to auto would add appeal as well. We would need at least two sizes. BTW do you sell dryer repair patch kits?

Retractable is a tough one but possible. regarding the dryer belt patch kit I do have some belt material and can get McMaster Carr send you some Teflon coated Kevlar thread.
