Thanks, updated my notes.
We did swing by there in 2017 on way to Utah's 5 national parks. Alex

AdminiScott wasn't at that one.
Greg was, though. As well Boxley. But I think you'd come to a couple.
You the one who gave me an IWeThey hat, right?
Wade.

That was the one I believe I sold you an Aussie $5 note. :-)
I think it was you.
Also got a few people to try Vegemite.

Ditto, but didn't think it was that bad.
Box's blubber offering was really OK.
But then, when I was a kid in the refuge camp in Germany, I got to eat salted (pork) fat back. Imagine eating raw bacon for an idea. In cold places the body "burns" that stuff to keep warm. Alex

I did give out a few IWeThey hats over the years.
My wife was into machine embroidery then. Even sent a hat to Arkadiy whom I never did meet.
You were an honored guest at Beep's and had your own room. Box and I spent the first night in a tent and the second night in the basement with the "fly over country" contingent.
But, there were so many other folks attending that it's hard to keep score. Remembering two new people a day has been my limit. Alex
