Hello that amazing i hope some day im a successful for my wish…
I live on the East Coast so it woul be hard for me to go to Tucson/Denver shows. I also have 3 younger children. Do you know if there are any good shows on the east coast that you would recommend. I hope to one day visit the other 2 but for now anything closer?
Thank you so much for your lessons, insights and all that you do.
