steelie 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 Good Day, Me too! Not confirmed - but I should be tying next to Dennis Potter and Ray Schmidt as one of the "featured" tyers. We should also keep in mind the annual FTF photo! I know they can be a bit scary with all those scruffy guys in the photo... hehe. Steelie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chase Creek 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2007 I'll be going, Lansing/Mason are my old stomping grounds. Should be a better picture this time - I dyed the rest of my hair gray and have developed more protective padding over those rock-hard abs. See you guys there.
