Thanks, Sharon. That other gent is Steve Forney:

The man. The myth. The legend.

Steve is the guy who travels to all of the commission meetings to videotape them so the rest of us get to see whats going on with the RR.

Steve is also one of those guys that seem to stay quietly in the background but, is always there when help is needed. He won't wave his own banner so we need to do it for him!

Yes, Steve is an unsung hero and we need to start singing his praises. He's one cool dude!

He's also half of the team from Three Foot Films. Check out their YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOY33Y ... cjjsG4P7Ng

In a way its a good thing that the audio wasn't working, because when you get Steve, Jason, and myself together we are having too much fun talking trash to each other. (Sharon knows, she spent 45 minutes on the phone with us one time when we were troubleshooting the system.) Good times.

The gent looking up at the Camera is my wife Joanie's cousin John who came out with me from Calif. for the weekend. He had such a good time at the R/R he rode the train on Sunday. (I think he will be back....) :lol:
