Happy Family Day!



Happy Family Day, everyone! Personally, I think it's kind of sad that it's taken for granted that most people don't spend enough time with their family that we need to have a provincial holiday to make sure it happens.

Thanks for all the Strumstick case advice, everyone. I'm going to investigate plastic tubing. The main challenge would be the 5" wide part of the Strumstick, which means the entire tube would need to be at least that wide, and at least 30" long. Not sure if I could fit that into some of the Air Canada overhead bins of smaller planes (the size AC flights from Toronto to Atlanta and Columbus seem to get tinier each time) but perhaps I could find tubing that could padded well enough inside to check it if necessary.

Speaking of checking, do check out the page about my line of cards on the Blush Publishing Web site. Click on any of the card images to see a close-up of each card. I'm also in their Announcements page. If you're interested in distributing these cards or have suggestions for Mark and Allison about how they could get wider distribution, please do let them know!
