It was a real treat to work with you in the Mississippi booth, Mark.  I brought one of Mike's books home and I've already gotten a couple of chapters deep into it.  Some great, inspiring writing.  You are blessed to have a friend like Mike Giles.  Mr E and Mike Langley were great booth partners, also!

Thanks Tom . Mike Giles is now addicted to nwtf Nashville and is also a call collector but does not know it yet. He got one of your calls and he loves it. He confessed on Facebook that he came home with about a dozen calls. I think we made Mississippi proud. Enjoyed being with you and Nina, Mr. E., and Mike Langley. I missed walking around and seeing other friends and call makers. I also missed bidding at the silent auction. Looking forward to next year.

Enjoyed meeting you Mark, Mr. E, and your friend Mike.  Good to see Tom again and run some of those calls scattered about the place.   ;D Mike L. had a pot down there I really liked but somehow kept getting sidetracked by all the good conversations.  ROTFLMBO Had a blast hanging around you guys!

Kolton should love adding that Padauk call to his collection, Mike, its on its way to Joplin even as you read this!  Thanks for buying and it was nice to put a face to your name.  LT, I hope you like your calls, also!
