Starting a new Q&A feature in the monthly newsletter just for kicks. My friend Haig Sujohn was kind enough to be the guinea pig. I think it will be fun getting to know fellow Clownshoe owners a bit better and getting their take on this random assortment of questions I’ve come up with. Hope you enjoy!
