Seeing emails like this just makes my day. You know how crazy it is to think Iris was standing there taking these photos the other day and when we receive the container it will look exactly the same. I love thinking about Iris standing in the lot taking photos, talking to the man, the man hop in his truck, brings the cartoon to the docks, another man picks it up, and puts on boat, it sails for a few week, goes into another port, gets loaded onto a train to Chicago and then gets on a truck to Fort Waynen. And us 435 girls just burn a ton of calories unloading it, box by box.
And now I am singing
You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don’t care how you get here, just – get here if you can
You can reach me by sail boat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don’t care how you get here, just – get here if you can
Stay tuned for your chance to shop early at 435.
