      I have 2 copies (for two grandsons) ordered and confirmed. The boys don't know it and it will be a surprise to them when we show up at the book signing.

          You can get them signed In Wichita as long as you don't work an 8-5 job on Fridays.

              fyi... if you order on-line, the 'gift code' or 'promo code' is the zip code associated with your credit card; unfortunately, I wasn't smart enough to figure it out on my first attempt. :)

                She was as giddy as I've seen her in years

                One quick note before we present the rankings: With Wichita State’s move to the American Athletic Conference, the Shockers have moved out of the mid-major club. We wish the Shockers well against Cincinnati, UConn, SMU, and more.

                  So, I live in Wichita, and I ordered 2 books. I pick them up at Exploration Place on Friday between 10 and 4:30 and get them signed?

                    That is correct; get there early, Ron might develop writers cramp.

                      The way it was set up in Eldorado, their were 3 lines. One for pre-orders (longest), one for purchases(shortest) and one to get your book signed. It would have been quicker today to have purchased at the event than pre-ordering. However, only about an hour in line to get a signature.

                        Picked my eight copies in Hutchinson for those of us in Great Bend that I have converted in to Shocker fans. There was one line, abuot thirty minutes long, both when we got there and when we left. It began ot 4:00 and we were there from 5:15 to 5:45. It was to conclude at 7:00, I believe.. They had a Kraken employee taking pictures while Ron was signing the books. Ron was Ron, friendly, talkative and the last thing he said to us, "I really appreciate you guys."

                            OK I see they are out of stock on line. At exploration place will there be a line for purchases?

                              I arrived at Exploration Place at round 10:30 with 3 of my grandkids. Took about 90 minutes to get through line. Got some great pix with Ron and the grandkids. Just finished reading "You're Too BIG to Dream Small". Short but a very positive message to kids of all ages. I give it 5-stars.
