<DIV><FONT size=2>Greetings to the Good Gentles of the Western Region. I
would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their kind words
regarding my appointment. As I have said I am going to do my best in this
job. I work some really weird hours at my job, and I want everyone to know
how to get hold of me if necessary. For the next four weeks I am going to
be working from midnight Sunday night to 8 am every day through Friday when I
get off at 8:00 a.m. You may call me at work at 915-263-7361 ext. 7147
during these times, call me at home at 915-263-0246 in the evenings. I
usually sleep from about 9:00 am to 4pm. I do have an answering machine
and caller ID. The ringer gets turned off during these hours so feel free
to call and leave me a message if you need to at my home number.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I am looking forward (with some trepidation) to the next two
years. I am sure that all of us together can make the Western Region the
most fun place to play. I am in the process of contacting all the
Seneschals of this Region. If you are one I've missed getting hold of,
please e-mail me separately with a good time to contact you.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Again, thank you all for your support. I will be
counting on the entire populace of the region, not just a few here and
there. I don't know a lot of you, but my schedule is going to allow me to
play more often for a while. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>In service,</FONT></DIV>
