Thanks so very much for giving me an opportunity to take my various messages directly to the NACHI members. I thoroughly enjoyed myself every minute I was there.
I think you and I had some very worthwhile and frank chats, and I think the future looks good. Once I get a rest from the past three hectic days I’ll contact you and we can discuss a few more ideas.
It was an honour and a pleasure to meet your lovely wife and well-mannered, polite son. You are a lucky guy !!!
I met so many very knowledgeable and helpful people I don’t know where to begin, but Joe Ferry, Mike Crow, Russell Buchanan, Valerie Green welcomed me and treated me like old friends.
I met lots of my new and old colleagues and I hope I was able to advise a few of them on a number of matters. I also received much good advice.
Last and certainly not least, it was a profound pleasure to meet John McKenna and sit in his Infrared Course for two days. The amount of information he threw at us in a short two days was amazing, but with his old boy, quiet humour and wit, he kept the class alive and interesting. Thanks, John, and I sincerely hope our friendship lasts many years.
I also have some pictures from our class that I took from the rear of the room and with any luck, I’ll upload a couple just to show you I learned something.
On a more serious note, it was nice to meet old friends and meet new ones; many thanks to John for teaching me so much in such a short time and to Nick and team for providing us such a great association with resources to die for!
He’s pretty beat up. But that is the point of it. This is the second year I sent him (my 15 year old son) up there.
As a former slave (I was sold into slavery when I was 12), I try to give my kids everything I can. That’s a mistake that I had to unravel with my younger son. These trips help do that, and also keep him away from video games and TVs.
The trip you provided for your son will be unforgettable and much better than any video game on the market!!
I did a three day canoe trip at the age of 14 that I cherish and remember to this day!
Forget the video games REALITY is a much better place to be. Temagami is a great experience , I have been fishing up in that area a few times. How did he handle the MOSQUITOES!:mrgreen:
