Back in Atlanta and already missing all you wonderful guys. Thanks to Greg for being such a wonderful host and to Terry for being such a warm and gracious co-hostess with the mostess. I'm so glad I finally got to meet Robert - and with his vanilla Norge in tow to boot. This was my first convention but it won't be my last. The 60 GE filterflo brought back many childhood memories. Did anyone notice I'm in love with the 55 Kelvinator?

I hope everyone had a safe trip back home and I look forward to seeing all of you again soon.

Les

I miss everyone already

When I stopped home for lunch today, I threw a load of Aloha shirts into the hettie, watched that for a coupla minutes. Then I popped in the video from the 2002 convention. What great fun! Seeing all the washers and people brought back some of the feeling of our weekend in Omaha. Great job on the video Jason! Let me know when the one from last weekend is available

I have lotsa pictures, except for the ones that may be blurry or mal-composed. It may take me a while to get them up, but it'll happen!

I'm still in catch-up mode at two jobs. Unfortunately, neither one is the kind where somebody covers while I'm gone.

Don't get on Les. You didn't take home the Westy or the Hoover either like you were supposed to... ;)

I also got home safe and sound, with just minor flight delays.

And I would also like to thank everyone involved and attending the convention, I had a wonderful time -- I loved being able to meet the new members, catching up with everyone, playing with the machines and I ate so much of the wonderful food and desserts that they practically had to roll me over to the hotel. Anyway, if you missed the convention, be sure to catch the next one!

Venus, I tried to sneak the 55 Kelvy home with me but I was afraid Greg would catch me and beat me with a Kenmore spankalator. :O

Great Fun At The Convention

Roger and I got back to Tucson this afternoon with fond memories of Convention 2005. It was great to meet everyone. We had so much fun with Greg's machines. Thank you, Greg and Thank you Terry for all your hard work putting things together.
It was wonderful to see people face to face so now I can connect the person to their postings.
