Can I get a copy of your handout after you finish it? You know I never make it to any classes...especially at Pennsic!

Sure, but it'll be on the web anyway. All my class handouts are on the web.
That's so I can't lose them.

A class in my specific and never talked about area of interest!!!! You should have seen the looks I got from the movers when they packed up my hand sythes and corn choppers . . . .
