I get to go. Wooo Hoooo!!!!!


Thought it would be better to start a new post, not wanting to over run Scudleys excitement to be at SOBB

Those of you who want to help send Rich to SOBB and dip his big toe in the Pacific Ocean, I have set up an account with PayPal. The account is helpingout@live.com
Send it as a personal gift. I will keep track of all the transactions and will forward the names and info to Rich.
As soon as the dates are decided on for Rich to head West and then return, we will post the updates of his "Most Awesome Adventure" to keep you all informed with getting his big toe wet.

I want to thank all of you for helping out with this. Rich has worked hard for some time now and has given far more than anyone can imagine. I for one am very thankful for the personal love of this sport that Rich has, with only a small amount of complaining, accomplished without any return for his time.
Thanks for all the emails and u2u's in support of this show of appreciation. Because of all of you, this will be a great opportunity for Rich and the "Most Awesome Adventure".

yah but you know the way it goes, we might just keep him here for a while and feed him Canadian beer and other things and not pass him along home :-)

oops just realized I did my contribution in CDN dollars so I'm sure paypal will short change a little on the exchange rate.

Pass Rich around is so funny! My wife got a good chuckle out of that one. Mark, as a kid I would visit Canada each summer. I loved it then I would love it now. As a family we are going to go, I want to share with my kids the beauty of Canada.

As for this trip I can tell you now that I am humbled with everyone's generosity. I promise to make the best of this trip and will make sure that everyone enjoys hanging with me.

Well, I guess it's official! Flight is booked and I will be there from Aug30th to Sept.6th. I can't wait to get out there and personally thank all those involved in making this happen.

Time to start seeing how many kites I can fit in one bag! It's going to be a great time!

Great news, we needed 423.00 for Rich to purchase his tickets and we recived 425.00. Way to go!
Thanks guys.

Now for the best part. I like Rich and I think he likes me, but for a solid week? So here is your chance to brown nose the Pres. I am more than willing to share him with you all. Lets show him we are not going to just hang out, but show him a great time. If you were not able to help out with his air fare, here is your chance to do it in person.
Let me know what you have in mind and we will try to make it happen. Or you can let Rich know directly.

Jeff you and the rest of the guys have done enough already. Just getting out there to ride the west coast beaches with you guys and hanging out is awesome in my book. I rarely drink and will be happy sitting around shooting the s€^¥ with you all. I am overwhelmed with your kindness.

I may need an occasional ride to the grocery though.:D
