 20,000 Leagues Exhibit postponed indefinitely
Well, at least you tried, Tim.
I'm sorry i wasn't more supportive, but honestly i have a pulled back
muscle, which hurts not only lifting heavy items, but sitting in a car
for any length of time. I pretty much walk everywhere now, and use my
car only a few times a month. Walking everywhere is helping me
reclaim my youthful health.
Lake Elsinore is pretty far away for me. It's over two hours of
driving, not including the congestion. It's not like an Our Gang
episode where everyone lives next door. It's more of an Our Gang for
californians where the event is only 15 counties away.
Again, sorry it didn't work out for you, and your friends.
Take care, and have fun.
Sincerely,
Ed
