Ironically, just last night I attended the wrap-up meeting for the Crime Bake conference I co-chaired in November -- and did so knowing I was going to be very happy not to be involved much this year. As you know Annette, these conferences organized by volunteers are a lot of work and worry -- even if they are very successful!!PatRemickhttp://www.patremick.comnoreply@blogger.com
