Well ok here are some of the pictures from the "Greatest iATN gathering on the East Coast" Rick and I would also like to thank you both very much Ron & Sue for the great time, the memories and all the lasting friends we made this past weekend. What a group!!!! To try to express how I felt that day would be too difficult. But I hope you all realize how special you all are to Rick & I. Some of my most very favorite people were in that shop Saturday. Lets begin
From left to right---front to back. Tom & Debbie Ham, Brent Swails, Sue & Ron Ciglar, Lisa and Tim Delong, Paul steinborn,Tim Mathews, John Gillespie ,Tim Taylor, John Gibbs, Kelley Hunter, ,Grumpy, Ken-Pa (sorry Ken I didn't catch your last name.) Dave Kline,Bill Lockerby, Chris Dreyer, Rick & Lisa Mayer and last but certainly not least Guido! There were a few others here but seems they left before the group shot was taken. :-(
This is a bit more of an updated picture of Grumpy. Personally have to say if you thought by his nick that he was Grumpy, you are sorely mistaken. What a wonderful sweet man!
Now this is a crew for you.Kelley Hunter, Paul Steinborn, Lisa (Me), and Rick, my wonderful husband. What a time we had! We all hooked up in Atlantic City on Friday Night along with Paul's wife Betsy, Chris Dreyer, Ron & Sue, Tim Tayloy (TW)and Tim Mathews. We had a great time. Oh yeah and I even got the opportunity to loose another man's money for once. Rick liked it! Yep. Thanks TW It was fun. As the story goes, I sat down at a blackjack table with next to me and $10.00. In a matter of minutes I turned it into $200.00 Luck was on my side.(TW said it was cause was sitting next to me. Kinda like a rabbits foot I guess.) Seemed I couldn't loose a hand. It was my moment to win. So I went with it till I lost a total of 3 hands. When that happened I left the blackjack table When I hooked up with everyone else and relayed the story, TW's eyes glowed! Make me some money!!!!!! So he handed me 50.00 and said here go for it. I tried to tell TW that my luck was up. But he choose to believe I was lady luck of the moment............... Well needless to say......... poor TW :-( left Atlantic City $50.00 poorer! Sorry TW! But it was fun.
Ron Ciglar and Paul Steinborn. Seems we can't go anyplace without one of you guys poping the hood of a car to do something. Pauls maintance reminder light came on during his trip down to Ron's and you know how that makes you crazy. Ron thought maybe black tap would work, I thought maybe remove the bulb....... but NOOOOOOO Paul had to have it fixed!!!
I tell you what.... you coudn't find a better group of men than this. Tim Taylor, Dave Kline, Brent Swails, Grump and John Gillespie. Oh and Tim tells me he is quitting smokeing for sure. I'm glad to hear that too considering the problems he had earlier in the year. I know he worried many of us.
Lisa and Tim Delong. Another great TEAM and a wonderful couple. Why is it we all have to live so far apart anyway. I didn't spend enough time with each one here, that was my loss for certain. You two are super and I'm honored that I had the opportunity to meet you both!
P.S. I ask BigDog to help Me with these pages and just look at what he did to his name.DARN DOG ALWAYS CAUSING TROUBLE!!
