Rendezvous

[Reid Trummel]

Thanks from Sue and me to everyone who had a hand in
organizing and presenting the "Rendezvous in
Richland."   The pace of the event was great -- not
too much to do, and not too little -- and even with
everything I had going on, it was great to be able to
do it and still not have to miss anything because I
was involved in concours judging (thanks Jim), a
seminar, and giving boat rides.

I think that the auction seminar was well received,
and the Healey boat ride raffle winners seemed happy. 
The 51-year-old boat and motor performed flawlessly,
even if the boat needed a few screws tightened along
the way (thanks for loan of the screwdriver Walt). 
(Was slightly surprised that aside from John Wilson,
donators of auction items were not
acknowledged/credited, but perhaps that's something to
note for next time.)

The drive home went well, and despite predictions of
showers in Portland, we managed to avoid all but a few
drops -- this is quite important to someone driving a
Healey 100 for 200+ miles each way with no weather
protection beyond aeroscreens!

Thanks again and looking forward to the Northwest Meet
in Silverdale in two months!
