Dave,

I have a full day planned on 5/12 . Will leave home in Delaware and join the breakfeast and signing in Savage,Md . After that off to Baltimore to take in the inner Harbour for lunch and check out the reunion hotel. From Baltimore on to Annapolis to take in the sights, dinner and another signing with Bill.

I do not have a way to post pics but I will send you some for posting.

Betty and I will be at this event on Sat. and will post a report on it since this is the only scheduled breakfast event that I see so far. Should be interesting. We will also post a report of the Bill signing event on Sunday at the Sea Shell Shop in Rehoboth Beach Delaware.

I will be attending this event and also the event in Annapolis. I don't have a digital camera(yet), but I will post a recap when I get home.

The Breakfast with Bill was a success. There were between 80 and 100 people I would guess that showed up. It started with a continental breakfast at the eatery in the Savage Mill which was near the Hands of Time that was putting the event on. A corsage was presented to Jacque Cater the Rep for Harbour Lights and then Bill presented a talk about the history of Harbour Lights of how it started 10 years ago. Very interesting talk. It lasted around 40 minutes and then it was getting near 10 AM and it was time for the signing so everyone got their lighthouses to be signed and got in line at Hands of Time. The line was steady until 12 Noon. Bill did not get a break as he was busy. At 12 Noon Bill and the Reps. had to leave as there was another signing at 2 to 4 PM at the Ingles Nook at the Dulles Town Center in Dulles Va. I did not attend that one as I was headed for Delaware for the weekend. But as always a good time was had by all. The only Wacko besides me was Lonnie Davidson from Wilmington De. as far as I know.

Thanks for the report, Hal. Glad you had a good time. No inside info from Bill that morning?
