Thank you guys. If the moderator wants to delete the engraving post that's OK as it doesn't fit in this thread.

Steve E., Dave maybe we should wait till spring time rather than plan something and have another blizzard.

John, I was sent out to Ojai to see what I could learn in a week. Carl graciously put up with me and both he and Coleen taught me a lot. I got to see the commemorative coin and dies that Coleen had made for the city of Ojai...excellent work. Unfortunately I was having fellow employee conflicts and left the company I was working for. I didn't get to use the information till ten years later. I do have a draft copy of the first 50 or so pages of the book he was writing. Don't know if he ever finished it or if he is still alive. Very nice people and very talented. I got quite a few stampings of his. I should try to contact him and let him know what he did for me.

I hope to meet a lot of you sometime.
