Haha... so yeah, very excited and am looking forward to learning some new tricks and playing more with my toys. Also meeting some of you like minded peeps out there
peace

Sanity is a highly overrated state of mind.

Hey Stef, actually from time to time I have a random spin in that field next to the Precinct at night.. It's dark enough to have a spin, yet light enough to see what you're doing. Maybe meet up some time when assessment calms down a step?
See you at moonfest Monday!

Hi Stef,
welcome to HoP. Hope to see you (back) in the Alice in December. There are some other jugglers, twirlers and spinners here now. About five people!!!
Anyway, enjoy this fine site and all the inspiration you get from so many great spinners.
