element 14 Members meet in San Antonio

Today Millie and I passed through San Antonio Texas and we had the opportunity to meet with genebren and his lovely wife for lunch. This gave us a great chance to compare interests and ideas about electronics. Face to face meetings add a new dimension to friendships on the forum. While the friendships that we make and develop on the forum are the best they are even better when accompanied with a firm handshake and a smile. We are all fortunate to have someone with the skills and competence of Gene helping out and contributing to our community.

    Thank you shabaz , my arm is doing well. At first I thought that six weeks would take forever to pass, but I go to the doctor Thursday and hopefully the sling will be gone and I can start physical therapy…

    John,

     

    It was an absolute pleasure to have lunch with you and Millie. More than a month ago, when you mentioned stopping by for lunch on your way through town, I was quite surprised.  I had never considered the possibility of meeting any of the fine people from this site face-to-face, but I am glad that you made that effort to set this up.  We thoroughly enjoyed your company and stimulating conversation.  I look forward to doing that again sometime, either here in Texas or in Wisconsin.

     

    Save travels my friends,

    Gene
