Re: Wayne L's talk

Laurie,

I have tried doing this in the past and have been met with total
silence....it has really sucked.  I notified Portland that Wayne was
coming down back in Feb/Mar....now that was more for club snail stuff, but
said hey he is here and you guys are welcome to crash with us or whoever
they want (ie you, bob and anne etc).  I got no response for like 6 weeks,
and then Joe emailed back.     I think I let Norm, Joe and one of the Van
Dorens know.

Send on Rolands phone number, I would be happy to coordinate.
