Sharing for Scott Riddle: Just a quick reminder, if you’re planning on bringing CS plates to the Chattanooga show for the photo shoot for the book, please email some pictures prior so that I can see what you have. I wouldn’t want anyone to show up with something that we already have. We will be shooting on Saturday only too, so I need to make sure that enough time will be allotted as well. Thanks Email to: [email protected]
