Loren,

I'm taking this year off from NTS (been to 3 of the last 5). My wife wants to go to the beach instead. ;-)

I am hoping to go to Anaheim 2008, Milwaukee 2010 and Sacramento 2011 since I've got family within an hour or so of each of those. I think we are supposed to be having a family reunion in 2009 (Connecticut).

I can't wait to meet Karin as well, but I'm afraid it WILL have to wait until 2008.

Take care and best of luck.

Randy

Hi Randy,

Well, not really an official announcement, but never the less an
announcement of sorts......let's see, we are registered at Target, Wal Mart,
Lowes, Home Depot, Sears, JC Penny, Nordstroms, etc. etc. etc. :o)

No, just pulling your leg, but we will be married on July 15, just two weeks
before NTS.. Which reminds me, are you going?

Karin wants to meet you and hopes you'll be there. I don't want to meet you
(already have),. but also want you to be there. LOL

Remember Saturday night two years ago at the pizza place when about 90 of us
crowded into that place to chow down? Did you know that the table that Jim
Manley sat at served twice as much as the rest of the place combined? I
just had to give Jim a zinger there.

Speaking of Jim, I'll join the BAZ boys on June 2nd along with Lajos Thek
at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California for a regional
NMRA "show and tell" event. This is going to be a fantastic opportunity for
us as a club to really show off Z scale. Even Joe D'Amato is trying to find
homes for his kids that weekend so he can go with me. You know all too
well about kids sometimes being anchors don't you?

A grand time should be had by all. Kind of a regional mini convention in
which we will get together Saturday night for eats and several of us will
stay with Jeff Merrill from BAZ. We're all taking the best we have to offer
to try to convince the "other" scalers how great Z is. Aren't you glad you
already know that and don't need convincing? Smart is the word.

Well, you asked about Karin's training......she does just about have me
house broke, but I'm going through a lot of newspaper :o)

ZU,
Loren
