Hi everyone! I've missed you all since the last fair at Vacaville, but let me introduce myself to those of you who don't know me. In '85 the court guild was asked to appoint patrons to all of the other guilds, in an effort to improve guild relationships. Everyone in the guild laughed when I asked for the criers, and I got you guys.

I remained the patron until the last year at Vacaville, with the exception of 3 years, 90-92. I was the guy that the northern guild would mob hug during Mayor's parade, among other times.

That said, here's the problem. Due to a lot of issues, many involving the activities around Leland and Leslie's divorce, Leland has virtually nothing of his mother to remember her by. So here's the request - if you have any photos with Audrey in them, any at all, please scan them and send them to me. I am working with a non-faire friend of his to create a memory album of his mom.

Leland's hanging in there, and it looks like Lee Presson and the Nails are slowly starting to increase their gigging, perhaps they'll even get together again.

So once more, I'm glad I get to see you all again, and please send what you can to my email address at philip-at-mchsi-dot-com.

With love and fond memories,
Philip Tuley
