1999 Convention Pictures..

And ofcourse there is a story behind these Pictures..

I had been home from the convention for a few days when
I got this email:

To jack Skaw:
I was at the convention last week and took some digital pictures of the displays. I took them under prevailing light and have improved them in "photodeluxe", and I wondered if you would like copies to use as you see fit?

I'll attach a couple here just to illustrate what they are like. Let me know if you want the others. I took a total of 18 or 19 shots.

Enjoyed the convention - it was our first, but not our last.

yours in Christ

Well, I never turn down anything so I ask for the pictures.. These are so good that I will probably use them to build the color page for the news letter.. I have included all the pictures here and will return to put captions on them as soon as I have all the information . I have formatted these to fit the page.

Debbie was so busy at the hospitality area she was the last to set up..	Some how I failed to get back to her display. She did a great job and I did her a great injustice by not getting her display on a Picture.. so very sorry.
