NewsWest 9, Salvation Army Toy Drive Thank You's

A big thanks to Paige Fulton and everyone at SkyWest airport for having us out. Thank you to Midland's EAA, the DPS, Air Vac Lifestream, and everyone else who brought out toys. They're overflowing the studio and making their way down the NewsWest 9 halls. Thanks to the Salvation Army for all the help (we should have accepted your offer to help transport all the toys, the van was packed on the way back to the station.) The chili and fajitas were delicious. Thanks to Michael Clinton and all who shared their secret recipes. And a special thanks to Steve Clinton, and all the pilots who took us for a rides in the skies. This Toy Drive couldn't be a success with out all of your generous hearts. Thanks.

Day Nine, Chrismas Shopping. 78% CHECK

Only 4 more to buy for & I know what 3 of them are getting.
(If Lonnie has 77.8% of his shopping done and only has 4 more gifts to buy, how long is his original Christmas list?)
