Great Billy,

I just got another payment from someone who will be coming in from far away well at least 5 hours away. I am sure many of you will be happy to see him.

So who all is down for this event so far?

I am guessing that this mystery guest is either Spence or Tonyg? But I am leaning towards Spence on this one?

Wacky are you coming?
Lawren?

Just over 2 weeks to go, any one else want to come. It will not be over crowded as last year and we have more going on and more door prize raffles.

Frank....We had a very nice time last year, and I wish that I were able to make it. Unfortunately, I have a black-tie wedding that day/night. It will be an all day event, into the wee hours of the morning.

Hope that you all have a great time.

I just received a nice donation of 4 very high end bottles for the wine auction part of the event from Wines 'Til Sold Out , I am hoping we can get a few more people to come from this site. Come on people if some one that lives 5 hours away that is coming to the event. Lets try to get more people to show up. We only have 1 table for our site coming.
Lawren and Pat Can you guys make it?

I do a lot of wine tastings, but that is a long way for me to go for a wine tasting. You know that I am with you in spirit.

Frank, I would love to come but my kids have their Eclectic Electric performance at the high school that night. I'm glad the WTSO folks are participating again. I'm sure you'll have a great turnout, it was a lot of fun last year.

This is coming together now. I have 3 or 4 beer companies coming, 3 wine companies coming along with the Lemoncello from last year, We also have 1 high end Rum sampling with fine liquors and The Cigar Store as well s a Martini Bar set up. I just came back for the store where I spent $2,000 on all high end wines and I mean high end rare wines that should fetch over $300 a bottle at the auction. Music will be much better than last year. We also have a lot of Freebies that were donated from the Italian trade commission. The tickets are selling out so if you want to come please let me know ASAP.

On top of what has been donated I just got Confirmation on the phone with Holt's Cigar Company - Everything Cigars Since 1898! who owns and is the maker of IMO the best cigar made Ashton. They are donating about $1000 worth of Cigars, humidors and Ash trasys for the Auction.

I also went into the City to pick up the books and posters from the Italian trade commission. We will be giving away as you come in an Italian wine book and an Italian Food/cook book along with a huge frame able poster that shows where the wine and food comes from. If you had to buy just these give a ways it would be more than double the price of your ticket.

Sounds wonderful Frank - I am sorry that I have a conflict but hope to attend next year.

Enjoy the evening!

Just got back from the 2009 wine tasting. Frank did a fabulous job and worked his tail off again. Frank kept on pulling rabbits out of his hat auctioning off dozens of items, wine, beer, cigars. Job well done!

Brother Coony and his wife Millicent were there.
Spence was there all the way from Maryland.
My son was there as well. He's 23 so he is legal drinking age!

We had a great time over wine, cheese, crackers, pizza, beer....

Well, my kids concert was great, but I'm sorry to have missed you all! Frank, I hope the evening was a big success for your church.
