Tim.. ( and others waiting)I am currently trying to get the CD of Portraits working correctly. Upon arrival it had a small crack, and will not download. I will pass the box along without the CD and continue to work on getting the problem corrected.. |

..I'm sorry to all who have been waiting patiently, especially Tim. Bad car accident has kept me not only out of work ( and out of touch with my e-mail) but not able to get out.. I'm very sorry it's been weeks since I got the box, and it hasnt gone out yet.. but there are some items in there that will make it worth the wait.. ( John Young autograph among others) I will be going to the post office on Saturday February 28th to get the box on it's way.. again, I APOLLOgise!! I also added books, " Last man on the Moon" " All American Boys, and "Schirra's Space" |

Hey gang,Just curious. The box has been on the road for over a year now. I would love to find how many collectors have seen the Grab Box and to how many countries it's been so far, since it left Jake's home. Let's have a rollcall and find out how many have seen it and how far the box has traveled. ------------------ Larry McGlynn A Tribute to Apollo |
