BTW, the hotel is out of rooms. I just called to book and they do not have any rooms available!

Is there any other hotels in the area?
Is there someone who would like to share a room (two beds please)?

Hotel still has room in our rooming block, if you go to their website or call the 800 number the hotel 'looks' full due to our & other room blocks.

Make sure and call 260-728-4600 direct and ASK for the Mind's Eye Graphics corporate rate of $55++ for the room nights you desire April 30 thru May 2.

I did call that number and talked to them directly. They have told me that they do not have any room, that they are completely booked for those two nights.

Apparently they have room. Greg called them and then called me with info. I guess "new girl" did not know about it.
Also, across the road, there is a Econo Lodge, on Priceline it is $49/night.

Greg is on a top of this, thanks. Hotel called me and all was taken care off. Booked with Baymont, I guess they had some rooms reserved for our event only and the "new girl"did not know. Econo Lodge had a water main break and it is currently closed. Will cancel that reservation.

Down the road, across the hollow, and a 'fur piece past Hooterville, but I call it home!

BTW Hooterville is not  a place for wings, when you get there just ask Sam Drucker for directions to Mind's Eye and the T-shirt guys!

Just messing with ya man! That is my kind of place. Moved about 40min outside the "cities" to get away from all the hub-bub, but alas I still have to drive in for work :(

I always tell people I moved out of the city to get away from all the stupid people. I don't believe we are smarter out in the sticks, actually probably the opposite in general, but we are spread farther apart!  ;D

Thanks to everybody from The Shirt Board who is participating in the Greaves on Garments at Mind's Eye workshop May 1-2, 2015.

Agenda with Richards talking point notes is attached.

We have only 10 seats left at this time and tonight I start other (Face Book & Twitter) event promotion.

SOOOOOO, if you have not received an e-mail confirmation from me regarding your registration and you thought you sent one in, e-mail me ASAP at greg@mindseyeg.com to verify what is going on.

I will take 10 more paid registrations and then start a back-up list for those would like to be on a 'when and if' status.

Best to all, see ya in Decatur.

Greg,

We couldn't decide if we were going to stay Saturday night....or not. But since we are driving, we decided to head on back to Wichita Saturday after 4PM, to break up the trip a little bit.

I have called the hotel to release the room for Saturday night.

Additionally, since my wife is travelling with me, sharing a ride with the printer you mentioned south of St louis would be  difficult.

Thanks!
Stan

Ya gotta check out Richard Greaves picture at www.mindseyeg.com.

I know 'paybacks' are hell but we could not resist using his masthead sketch from the ScreenPrinting Magazine column he authored for so many years.

Thanks for your support of the Greaves on Garments Workshop.

anybody up for a little parking lot swap meet?

I can bring with:

- 23x33 newman M3 frame in great shape
- 23x31 MZX frame (with no anodizing) in good shape
- a newman ST-1E tension meter, that needs to be calibrated.
