I opened my email this morning and found a note that left me puzzled for a minute.
LOL you so had me freaked out that day!! I'm sorry i didn't get this until today. We just had our internet re-installed in our new house and we had actually been living in our camp trailer since July. I am so thankful and amazed about this. Please send me a stack of your cards. We meet over 1000 customers a year and would be more than happy to hand them out.

What? Who? OH!
Back in August, I was participating in the Local Business Challenge on ActiveRain, writing a series of posts about local businesses. It was a great challenge, and I really had to scramble to get the required number of posts done according to schedule. I don't think I got them all done, but I had fun doing the ones I did complete, and met some great people in the process of promoting their businesses on my blog.
On August 7th, while stopped at a red light, I whipped out my camera and took a photo of The Gutter Guys Truck in the lane next to me. The guys in the cab had very puzzled looks on their faces and I got a chuckle thinking of them trying to figure out what I was up to! After I posted their story on my blog, I sent off this email:
Hey Matt,
Sorry I didn't have time to chat before the light turned green the other day! Check out my post, hope you like it. When I get back to town next week I'll add more and better photos, hopefully a nice one of your truck since the one I took stinks! If you Google gutter guys you come up on the first page out of all the gutter guys in the world! Not too bad. Haven't had time to see where you are on other phrases.....

Better late than never! Unfortunately, it's been more than four months since that post and The Gutter Guys in Hayden Idaho aren't still coming up on the first page out of all the gutter guys in the world for Matt to see and enjoy. I'll have to work on that for my new friend.
Hmmm. Do you think I really should send him 1000 cards to hand out?
