It's going to be a great event. The houses are under
construction now and the opening event is Thursday
morning. (Ern, please feel free to come down and shoot
it-- there'll be VIPs.)
The houses will be open to the public most days, with
exhibits in our main tent, along with a kiosk where
the public can sign our guestbook.
Hope you'll all come visit.
