no convention for me this time

Sorry folks, after looking forward to it for months I can't come to the convention. My son was diagnosed with walking pneumonia yesterday and is really feeling out of sorts. I just don't feel right leaving him even to go that far so I guess it will have to be next year (maybe by then I will be well on my way to the losing side). I hope you all have a great time !! Post lots of pics and lots of stories. Kathy
