Aloha Chippers,
I pleasantly caught myself Daydreaming about my Chipp'n adventures in VIVA Las Vegas June!!!!
I flashed back to seeing all the Volunteers at the badge pick up, greeting me and giving me my dealers packet.
I truly miss seeing Mrs. Lighterman!
It felt great to place my badge on around my neck!
I daydreaming flashed back at also about:
Checking over and checking again to make sure I had my memory cards (film) in my cameras!!!
How I greeted every Chipp'n Volunteer I saw and to say, "THANK YOU FOR VOLUNTEERING!" That put a smile on my face!
The happy sight of seeing Cigarman Doug with that big cigar in his smiling mouth!
Seeing Sheldon & Christine Smith busy, but not as stressed-out over the 364 days prior to the start of the June Convention!!!
For these two Chippers, as U well know, the convention is an all year preparation event!
*Numerous times:
I had to shout out "Hey Sheldon! Slow down that speed scooter U are racing in!!!
There're young Chippers crossing!" LOL!!
Once inside the showroom.....I walk to the back left corner where the water cooler was, turned and looked at all across the dealer's tables and saying to myself..."I'm finally here again. Let the good times roll!".
I go to our show table#33 to see, to shout Aloha, and to hug my chipp'n partner Curt Squires and his beautiful Bride, Diana.
If it weren't for joining the , I would not have met them!
*****SPLASHBAR BRIAN'S Awards event was a special fantastic moment for me. So much Chipp'n Fellowship!!!

Aloha & Okole MaLuna,
