Sign of the Times...Retro

You would not believe the amount of work required to get a sign installed. It started out with our landlord wanting to charge us $5000 for seven block letters. ZigsBar- which we have not used for years not wanting to be associated as a bar, since we are so much more than that, but back to the sign. So we want a marquee where we can put names up old fashioned style. We would like it to have the clear light bulbs running around the outside. Of course, city approval is required, designed must be presented before any work can be done. After getting city approval our landlord has now balked. We do not expect much trouble from them, electrical stuff and design issues never end. We are hoping to have a sign by year end. Hah, let us thank you for coming since you do not need a sign.
Ward Anderson coming this weekend, been here before and was excellant. We look forward to hosting a very nice Christmas Party this Saturday, so it should be a fun weekend.
A couple of friends and I signed up for dive certification classes here in Alexandria in January. We did a resort dive in Aruba and are hooked. Looking for a trip to the Cayman Island's to certify open water in late February. Even have our seven year old nephews signed up for a juniors class as a Christmas present. Splash Dive shop in Alexandria is awesome. Great group of people, all passionate about diving.
For tonight, a cold Monday, we are off to Seacret's to see Johnny, even in the dead of winter this place is awesome.
Thanks for reading and hope to see you soon
