First I want to say it was great to be back at the Winterfest, and an
honor to spend time with all of you. Camaraderie beyond compare. Y'all
know what I mean. I won't say much more. Thank you. That last session of
shortwave memories was really something.
Now the downside, at least for now. I already posted something about his
on facebook, where I guess I don't wanna say much more about it there.
But through a strange and unexpected turn of events at the end of a bus
out of Philadelphia, my bag is now in Germany, and I have a very similar
looking bag full of a stranger's sweaters and Doritos and cookies, and
my grand prize from the raffle and a number of important items of mine
ended up with somebody leaving the country.
The woman who bought the ticket for this German traveler has assured me
that my suitcase will be shipped back to me as soon as possible. I hope
that's true. But these are strangers, and this is a strange situation.
At this point, I don't know what to expect. Whatever happens, I will
post on this list and let you all know.
Meanwhile, thanks for the memories of this weekend. I'll say this -
Rich, and John, all of you, even if I've lost my prize, along with my
prized GE portable that was in that bag, and everything else, this last
weekend will remain a prized moment in time for me, despite all that.
Still, I'm sad (Remember the Yardbirds?), and frankly stressed. But
again thank you, for the good times.
