Default Still Around, just been tough lately...

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that's being patient with m. I've been off the forums dealing with family issues, from two seriously sick parents to my daughter's house burning down (April 1st in Atlanta) along with an office move, but I'm still here, just not as active. I apologize if anyone feels I'm leaving them hanging out there, don't mean too, just trying to catch my breath right now--though I have to prepare for our upcoming Virgin Islands trip (workshop) and the Atlanta workshop coming up the weekend after.

For those going to the International Glamour, Beauty & the Nude workshop in the Virgin Islands, just wanted to let you know, you are all lucky! We have the current season's American Idol Superstar Amy Davis as one of the models! Along with a Playboy model and four other beautiful girls, so I hope you're ready! I do have one person that had to drop out, so quickly email me if you're interested as a replacement, but you must act fast and include your number and time to call.

I want to thank everyone for their supportive emails about my family issues and I'll slowly get back to full speed after the VI trip, so thanks for bearing with me, it's been super, super tuff lately, but I see light at the end of tunnel. And as an old friend tells me, after every storm is a rainbow so I'm setting my goals for it to make do where I need to. Thanks for your patience during these trying times, rg sends!

(American Idol Superstar Amy Davis--wait for new images from next week's shoot!)

Take care of your family matters, sometimes we let buisness consume too much of our time. Our thoughts are with you and your family. We will still be here when things get sorted out and back on the right track.

Regards,
Claudio
