Rick,

Well the big evening is almost here…today was meeting with the Press at 9:00 . It was a success! They loved our room. We also met with Victor Skrebneski this morning in our room he loved it also and was attracted to what was on the LCD ! We had to leave as he was touring Mick DeGuilo’s room. He is considering a new Kitchen I guess. We met with Bud this morning about the layout of your cards and found a nice place for them under the LCD.

As I continue to say….thank you for being a special part of our room. Its amazing! Sorry you won’t be able to come to the opening but hope that you will slip in as see your work of ART IN MOTION in our room. We would be more than happy to meet you there also. Thank YOU!

Best,
Denise
