Well this is possibly my last US Typed Blog. I’ve an hour until the Fair Well Party. Though I prefer the Dutch “Tot Zeins” (Till I see You) it sits better.
Another round of Golf this morning cheers Tim and John (we won’t hold being Canadian against you too much) and I actually won a Hole and split 3 or 4, improving slowly, wonder if Grandads old clubs still work.
Presentation today at High Point Rotary, apt. I had been afraid on Sunday that this week would be an anti climax after Conference. It hasn’t been. It was not the psychotic madness of last week and weekend but the pace was great, varied and interesting, gently bring us back ready for reality but still rolling along the GSE Ride. Thanks I needed it.
Tonight will be tough on all of us, Guests and Hosts, I can already feel it building as I packed this afternoon. Burying the fragile stuff and minimising bag numbers for travel. Hope we don’t disappoint. So many Tot Zeins. Random one the K9 dogs from yesterday were Dutch Maussers, trained in Holland and answer to Dutch commands, it was totally left field to hear that in NC.
People have asked about “Best Bits”, not sure yet, too many great and different things, lots stand out. All the hosts have been wonderful in different, special, ways. All the new things, turning wood, playing golf, public speaking, Mitzi’s infectious laugh, TR McCoys sense of Humour, Harrys Accents, beer tasting (honest), 9 Ball pool, Victory Junction, The Bread Basket, feeding donkeys and on and on and on.No I won’t pick a favourite it’s all been too good.
Many Many Many thanks to all of 7690 every one we’ve met or done something behind the scenes or in front. Also Thanks to 1230 for putting us up for this.
“It’s been a total BLAST”Simon.
Time to get kilted up for the last dance.
