Dad2Cue Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 We are on Symphony in January so we thought we might see you then. We can't afford Icon yet unless Royal reassigns us with price protection. We really enjoy your videos and congratulations on your reassignment. I won't hold my breath waiting for our reassignment. We will enjoy Symphony but we would volunteer for Icon. CHRIS WONG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
