I had the pleasure of meeting Bob D from LA and his grandson Jamie today. They delivered my parts they picked up at Dale's show. Had a great visit and talk also. I believe his grandson will be a great machinist someday. Very quick study for 10 years old. Great to see kids interested in something besides video games.Always a pleasure to meet a new Orange friend. Thanks Bob for all your help. Safe journey home,God Bless. Tracy Martin

Jamie is a worker and not your typically youth of today, as I saw at Dale's. I hope to see Bob and Jamie again. I could use him for several weeks to play "orange" at my house !!!

Thanks for the comments Tracy and Larry. Jamie is a good kid and in the past year has really started shaping up and taking an interest in the orange as well as being a pretty good worker, especially considering he is only ten. I would like to thank Tracy for a wonderful visit. I am frequently blessed by the folks I meet in this orange collectors world. Tracy wasted most of the afternoon Monday entertaining Jamie and I and I feel honored to meet yet another great man in our world of AC. The trip on home from Tracey's was good. Hit some pretty heavy rain a couple of times, but they were short lived and only slowed us down a little bit. God Bless.
