Your family and friends will love it!!!

Read My Shirt! NO MORE SPENDING!!!

It looks like the political scene is heating up and last I checked, "Its all about the Economy . . . . . . ."    The polls are up and down like a roller-coaster and everybody has a solution.  Obama says $pend more and charge it.  Cain says its all about "9-9-9."  Romney says that he has a 59 step plan to solve our problems.  And Ron Paul is going to take a Trillion dollar butcher knife to DC.
One thing that I know. (By the way I am learning the hard way.)  We have to stop spending.  In 1988 H.W. Bush said, "Read my lips: no new taxes."  Well times have worsened, taxes or not, we have to stop spending.  So, my message to the country, the president, and all of the Republican candidates is this, 
"READ MY SHIRT!  NO MORE $PENDING."
Read My Shirt!  No More $pending"

LET YOUR VOICE BE SEEN!  WEAR YOUR MESSAGE THIS ELECTION SEASON!
BUY A CHALKSHIRT!

ChalkShirts goes Multilingual

Here is the first installment of the Multilingual Series of posts.  Your Chalk Shirt can speak every language in the world.  It can even communicate without using words.  Chalk Shirts are useful across the globe for any occasion. Have something to say politically?  Want to cheer somebody up at work or at home?  Want to be the show at a party or provide fun for everyone around you?  Imagine the fun if there were more than one of you doodling around.  The sky is the limit. 

One beautiful thing about the Chalk Shirt is that it has no borders and has no lingual boundaries.

Can you guess what language this is and what it says?  If so, leave a comment.

ChalkShirts Went To The Fair! - Updated

What a great time! What an adventure! 
This was the first real outing for ChalkShirts.  We had loads of fun and met lots of people.

We did have a 
Great entertainment.  Great food.  Great neighbors.  We enjoyed hanging out with every one down the strip.  The food was great, from the Mini Donuts to the Lamb burger, funnel cakes and monster dogs.  We also shared a wall with Silver Mountain Resort.  They were very enjoyable people to be with and the resort looks like a lot of fun year-round.  They offer skiing, tubing, hiking, biking and even surfing.

Fortunately, there was a great response to the Chalk Shirts.  We know that lots of people are now running around in our Chalk Shirts.  Some are even as far as Germany.  How cool!  It was a treat to meet so many people from all over.  Thank you.

Slim and Curly were a great addition to the Fair.  They stopped by several times to encourage us as I stood staring at the sun for hours doodling on my shirt.  They put a smile on everybody's faces.  We hope that they will be back next year to do it again.

Adam the Great was a great act. He was entertaining, very funny and a fabulous magician.  He took the time to stop by during his very busy schedule to check out the Chalk Shirts and give us our own act.  What a treat.



Thank you also to all of you who stopped by to encourage us.  We had so many friends and family stop by to say, "hi," chat and even to buy shirts.  We look forward to seeing you all again soon.

If you are in town, don't forget stop by Figpickels on Sherman in downtown Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.  They have been great partners! It is a terrific store if you ever want to see or buy truly unique toys.  They travel the world looking for awesome toys that nobody else has.

Have a great time and come back soon to see what else ChalkShirts is up to.
   See you soon.

ChalkShirts Goes to Leavenworth WA

Earlier this spring I went with my family to the Alpen town of Leavenworth

Downtown Leavenworth
 What a neat town!  It was surrounded by beautiful mountains, had a gorgeous river running through it, a really neat downtown with lots of fun shops and restaurants, the Nutcracker Museum, and wonderful music in the town square.
I found many occasions to write on my Chalk Shirt.  One was while listening to the music.  I have always enjoyed Bavarian music and this group was not an exception.  They had great upbeat tunes and of course, "Yodeling," and I like yodeling.  Because I can write, erase & write again, I was perpetually changing the message or drawing on my shirt.  I the upright base player found it very amusing and I even got him laughing a couple of times.  As you can see below, one of the messages that I wrote was, "Yodeling Rocks!"



As Leavenworth has much to offer the traveler, we moved on and so did my message.  It now read, "Top of the morin' to you."  I was outside a shop waiting for my crew (family) to come out when a couple walked passed me.  They suddenly stopped, reversed course, looked closely at my shirt, then quizzically asked, "Didn't you have a shirt on that said "Yodeling Rocks!"?"  I erased "Top of the mornin'" and wrote "Yes."  They thought it was a kick, smiled big and went on to enjoy the rest of their day.

As you can imagine I had many other opportunities to brighten some body's day.  For instance, when we were at the Nutcracker Museum I was inspired to dawn a chalk drawing of  a nutcracker on my shirt.  Or when we were at the Gelato Store "Viadolde!" I wrote "I love Gelato."  It put a big smile on their face and the gentleman behind the counter asked if he could get "a shirt like that?" 
"Yes, absolutely! Go to Chalkshirts.com."

We had a wonderful trip to Leavenworth and my Chalk Shirt got a lot of use.

Please feel free to leave comments, suggestions, or your Chalk Shirt story.

Thank you,
