Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Been following Allison's thread, & respect the process.
However, in the interest of sending positive energy out into the void, I am willing to start my copy on an adventure, also.
Here's the deal: You get it for 30 days. Period. Post a picture on the "ning" site, with the book in your clutches. Then let us know who it went to. They post the arrival, & post a picture. Try to get some distinctive background into the shot, OK?! Put a copy of the picture in the book, too!
We have members world-wide, so mailing time will vary.
Has a copy been to Oz, yet? Might be a good place to start. |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Shoot me a PM, or email. A tour of The Old World might be interesting, & Quebec would be a great departure point! I'd love to see the book in front of some well-known, & perhaps more esoteric, locales!
I've got a good backdrop for my location, to start the journey. |

Location: Sunshine State, Australia | As far as I know, only one copy has been downunder. AJ brought it back from one of the get-togethers. We all (AJ, Taffy, Flackster, Oz and I) signed it.
We all have (I think) our own copies now, so it wouldn't be difficult to 'fudge' a photo. |

If that was the 'new' one from Amelia Island, then at least one more has been through Oz. ozwatto sent one to me back in Jan with some post cards included. I took that one to G8r Bowl II and then sent it on out to the NW with the Aussie postage/post cards and a handful of G8r Bowl II decals. |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Sounds like we may be revv'in up the European Tour. Daniel looks to be the embarkation point, for leaving The Colonies. So, to our European colleagues- start getting organized! It would be fun to get about a dozen "stops" in the next year, before returning to The States.
Heck, if its real successful, how 'bout a junket to South America? I believe we have a couple of members down there. A picture from the top of Sugarloaf in Rio? Machu Pichu? |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Three stops, so far. I will initiate a new thread, when The Book is on its way. The order of transfer is to whomever requests the critter, from the current holder, and they make the arrangements. Just keep it circulating! |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | The logistical coordination will be through the OFC thread, "The Book- European Tour 2009 & Beyond", set to begin very soon. I got my pictures done this AM, so I should have the parcel off to Quebec by Thursday. After that, it's up to Daniel.
Just remember to post arrivals & departures on the TBET-2009 thread. |

Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | It's coming. The 1st stop is scheduled in Canada. After that, probably, Tuscany, based on the order in which our members have been responding. That's why have a centralized place for tracking The Book's movements will be essential. With the demonstrated demand evidencing itself, perhaps the "30-day stay" may need to be renegotiated!
Shoot, I may not see this tome's return for a couple of years!! |
