Michael,
Loved the postcard. Yes, we now have 3 stores open and working on #4. Filmed the first TV ad today. Hurry up and wait was the theme of the day. Doug is working hard and really enjoying the challenge. Karen is still playing too much tennis and not getting any better. Bill is working for UPS and liking it. Carolyn is a month away from her driver’s license and driving dad nuts by having a boyfriend. Marching band starts this month too. Will also be marching in this years Rose Bowl Parade. Go Carolyn. Talk to you soon. Keep the postcards coming. We love them. Also love your nights of comedy at the improve.
