It’s Friday. it’s nearly Christmas and I thought it was a great day to post a little unexpected ray of sunshine. Back in the summer I got an unexpected email from a local man, Peter Karplus. I’ll let him explain just what he told me.
I have been having a “beaver” year. In early April I discovered that in July at the next 1Concord,CA ComiCon would be hosting Jerry “The Beaver” Mathers and other celebrities. But, before that event the Beaver Festival happened where I found, liked, and purchased a Worth A Dam shirt for myself. I, then, went to the Comicon fully enjoying the time I spent interacting with the celebrities. It was not until a week later, or two, when I thought how cool it might be to buy a Worth A Dam shirt for Jerry Mathers with his name on it. So, I found your design on Zazzle and altered 
the text on the back to read as seen in attachment #1, and with #2 showing Jerry Mathers wearing the shirt. And, in appreciation of my giving him the shirt he signed my second shirt [attachments (front)#3 and (back)#4] I had purchased with his name on it.
Which you have to admit is an unexpected surprise! Honestly I forgot that old shirt was on zazzle at all. I think it’s from our very first festival and features a favorite photo I took of our first kits, When Peter shared his story I asked permission to share it on the website so he checked with Jerry who gave his blessing. I’ll admit, he wears it well. And I can truly say that Peter gave us the christmas gift we could never have expected. Thanks so much to both of you.
May all our holidays be filled with unexpected treasures and delights.
