I'd like to talk with you regarding your lease offer, my brother Jim did not recieve a copy from you, however he received a different offer from another lease man. During my work day it's difficult for me to have a long conversation, and I am on pacific time (2 hours behind you). I'd like to call you in the evening, the best time for me is probably around 9pm your time. I realize this is after your normal hours though. Please contact me by e-mail (anytime) joepalouse2001@yahoo.com or by phone (509) 595-2916 (again, best in the evenings). Best regards -- JOE FORD
