Birthday Gloat

[John Altberg]

Today for my birthday, my wife and children presented me with my reservation to attend a 3 day class with Jimmy Clewes in December. What an unexpected surprise. Escaping Spokane for Vegas in December is an added bonus!

Having taken classes from Jimmy on 2 different occasions, I know you are going to learn a lot and have a great time.

Congrats! I was able to do this class at his house about a year ago, and I had a blast. He and his wife couldn't be nicer people. Looking forward to seeing what you turn and hearing the full report.
