Re: [Texascavers] TCC Winter Conference - James Reddell Speaks

2013-02-23 Thread Mimi Jasek
Mike,

Thanks for a great TCC Winter Conference experience! Sorry we had to leave 
early, but we learned a lot, made some great new friends, saw some old ones, 
and had a fantastic time with all. Good job by those who made it happen!

If you missed it, try to come next year. For all who were there, send your 
reports and pictures to Mike so he can put together a wonderful piece for an 
upcoming Texas Caver! Jill can always use an article like that:)
