Dear Ricky –
Last night at dinner we were reflecting over various aspects of this past year. While it has been an exciting journey – it is safe to say that many emotions were felt through out the year. When ever we hit a “bump” in the road, we would gather via ma bell and work things out. Has it been a smooth ride? If our guests only knew – We can laugh over some of it now, but perhaps the most riveting moment for me, was the morning you had been delivered the news that it would take several HUNDRED thousand dollars to get the site video ready. Apparently our idea was a bit before it’s time technology wise. We had already cashed the Bernina check, hired the crew and had taken subscriptions. You explained the situation plainly and clearly, then ended the sentence with, “we have excellent webmasters – they are working on this and we will be talking to them this afternoon – we are not going to give it another thought this morning – we have work to do”. “YOU SAY WHAT???” LOL – and our web guys did solve the problem.
I also remember standing at the top of the stairs right before the first taping – I am so glad Gregory Case / Photo man caught the moment.
And what about those bears? hmmm – you know revenge is sweet.
Anyways, thinking of you, reflecting on last year and planning for next.
Alex ;0)
