Mikey- I agree, I think I would find both groups helpful. I will be in contact in the next day or so. Thank you for all the info and the offer!
Swedefiddle- I would definitely enjoy getting to go to a NWBA meeting. Do you have contact info for whoever I need to talk to about going to a meeting or is it something I just show up to? Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to make this month's meeting due to a busy work schedule and low finances but I should be able to make the march meeting.
