Will be sort of gone for the next week

[Freebird]

Not completely gone, but limited access. Will check in when I can. I have to fly to Minneapolis tomorrow and then drive to the company resort near Hayward, WI for our semi-annual sales meeting. They do have WIFI there but only in the lodge, not in the cabins so I can only check in quickly once or twice a day. Will be returning very late Friday night. Hope you all have a great week and remember me while I am there getting my semi-annual attitude adjustment.

[Bubber]

I suppose that there is no extra time in your schedule to meet up with one or more of us in Minnesota?

 

Actually you will have to go right by me on Hwy 35 North (North Branch exit) you will know cause they are putting in an overpass bridge at the exit. You know how to get my number or PM Me.

 

If you do we could meet someplace like Mall of America (MOA) or airport or?????

 

Oh Ya I forgot....... forget the Bermuda shorts and suntan lotion it is a balmy 5F

"semi annual attitude adjustment"? Hell, I thought you were one of those 70's era rabble rousers....like me.

 

I get an attitude adjustment daily where I'm employed......and I like it!!!!

 

Have fun up there, and don't bother with the suntan lotion......

I wish I could but these meetings make that impossible. They pick us up at the airport, shuttle us straight to the company resort and we are there in meetings until they shuttle us back to the airport on Friday.

I WISH.

[Bubber]

[ctraylor]

Are you going there for an attitude adjustment or an altitude adjustment. There is a difference you know.

Down 'heer in the South that would qualify as a kidnapping. Well, at least while they are holding you hostage maybe they will give out plenty of cold beer and cheese. And don't worry... we'll be good... no worries at all. That's what my kids always told me... :group cheers::group cheers:
