Thanks for the heads up!
Sounds like a lot of fun. I've known the Seto family for years...very nice people.
I've missed a lot these past years...only come home to visit twice a year. I didn't even make mt boy Jimmy Mullen's funeral! Atlanta's cool but I might boomerang and make my way back home for good one of these years.

Did I already say, "If you bought a 40 from Mrs. Duncan in the Crest"? Coldest 40's ever. She is the reason why I drink Olde English to this day. My first taste of beer was a cold ass Mrs. Duncan 40. She had a freezer in the garage, and your 40's would have ice on them when you got them. Best ever.....
