I can't make it down there, but I hope you Ozarkians can. I have been to several Lincoln U seminars, and all have been excellent. They connect very well with the "small" guy, and think unconventionally.

Can your mom or kids do the chores? You are welcome to come here on the 15th, and we can drive down on Saturday morning.
