Delayed Posting March 20 - 23
Please be advised that posting will be slow from Tuesday, March 20th-Friday, March 23rd as I will be traveling and in Atlanta for rehearsals of Ghost Brothers of Darkland County. Rather than closing the Board during that time (and then followed by the two week closing from March 26th-April 9th while I am on vacation and another slow posting week April 10th-13th while I'm in Atlanta for the opening of Ghost Brothers), I hope this will be a better compromise for everyone. For those who've attained the minimum post count, the Groups will still be available during the delays in posting at the normal Board hours and while I am on vacation. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
