Hi Julie,
Congratulations on your National Certification as a women’s business owner. Best wishes for a productive 2012. I am still giving tours throughout the state….last week did a typing job for Shell Oil at Wild Horse Pass. Week before took a bus load of international high schoolers on a city tour which included climbing Hole in the Rock. Betsy Todd
