Funny you should mention that East vs. West bit; I had originally thought to do a project "on tour" as in taken to various events and restored as a "how-to" exhibit but the transportation logistics and time investment required would have simply been too much. From a
PR standpoint for both Pelican and the charity it would have been golden. Not being able to do that, the next logical idea was TWO projects- one for East Coast Pelicans and one for the Westies. And then I realized that procuring the pieces for two project would just make it twice as difficult . . .
