Have to say thank you to Bob, Liz, "T", and Shannon for another great GTG. Really enjoyed meeting some new faces and visiting with familiar faces.
Thank you Bob for letting us stay even with Mountaingals behavior im in your debt:hmm3grin2orange:
Got to run the Treeslinger 372xpw side by side with several other saws and got some guys to run it now im even more impressed its a mean work saw for sure. Didnt realize how much power it has for its size.

Well, after a semi-long drive home, some rest, and a day of regrouping, it's time for a post.

We would like to thank Bob and Liz for having us to our first ever GTG. The wife and I had so much fun, it wasn't two miles down the road before we were talking about how we were going to attend the next one.

To everybody we met, I can't thank you all enough for welcoming us with such openness and enthusiasm. I am sitting here trying to remember names, faces, AS user names, etc. and it's just all too much to recall at this time. Guess that means we need to get together more often, so we can learn and remember everybody involved.

We will be keeping up on all the current happenings around our area, so we can be sure to make the next one. Even if it's only a small one, we'll still be there.

Thanks to all who provided the great eats. That was an unexpected bonus. Sorry the doughnuts didn't make it there earlier. The freebees, book from the drawing, and other stuff from Bob were great gifts to bring back home. They were very much a surprise.

Oh, by the way. To anybody interested, Jackie says the book is fantastic (she's still reading it), and for the right price, we might entertain starting a "loaner" program.:msp_tongue:

Jackie wants me to pass on to Liz that she will be bringing the next bottle of wine.

We both set a goal to run more saws and participate more at the next one. I'm trying to talk her into doing the tree climb, if I do it as well.

We look forward to seeing everybody again, and re-meeting you all soon.

P.S., to the people sitting across from me at the fire on Saturday night (sorry, I don't remember your names), I wasn't intentionally trying to eavesdrop on your conversation. As a healthcare person in a busy hospital, I'm just so used to being able to listen to anything and everything going on around me, I tend to do it outside of work as well. If it makes you feel any better, I was actually listing to, and keeping track of every conversation happening that night, all at the same time. So, sorry about that. I'll try to "un-focus" next time.

No worries Doc..I was across the fire and thanks for sanging with us hope are tune was par for the course your background in old tunes was great also..hope to see you again at a camp fire...and bring the book
