This year has absolutely FLOWN by so far! But there's a reason for that perception in my life. Also, some may have noticed that I cut the deadlines for getting calendars printed pretty close the last two years, and there's a reason for that too. And coincidentally, they are the same reason.

Most of you don't know that I went back to grad school two years ago. Long story short? I've been working full-time, teaching part-time, and trying to keep up as a full-time student at Villanova Graduate Buisness School. (If I didn't think I was getting old before, I sure do now!)

But three weeks ago, I wore a cap and gown for the first time since 1983.

So what does that have to do with calendars?

Instead of spending every free moment doing research and writing papers, I suddenly have the occasional spare moment again. And that means, I can start working on next year's project within a more reasonable timeframe.

Of course, that means I get to be the one assigning homework for once.

I need pictures for the 2018 OFC Calendar. Lots of them! There is a link below to a drop box. That way you don't need to worry about maxing out your email size limits when sending in those nice, hi-def photos. Be sure to let me know EXACTLY what model and any details you think may be relevant. My email address is the same as the dropbox-name-below @ patchworkmcg.com.

I can't wait to see what you all come up with this year! Thanks everyone!

OFC-Calendar

Thanks everyone! Now I just need to turn that new degree into more income....

But that's another issue.

Regarding the calendars, I can see some pictures are waiting in my drop box, so thanks to those who jumped right on this. But we have a ways to go yet, so keep them coming!

I would really like to be close to a first draft sometime in August.

So far, I have enough photos to cover a little over half the year. I'm gonna need some more!!!

Got'em Dan. Thanks!

It's almost ready. I will be submitting a proof to the printers tomorrow. Once  it is given the all-clear, I will post a new thread with ordering info

Start figuring out how many you need for Christmas presents.
