Hey guys,
I just got into "Lost Wages". I've been traveling every waking moment since departing the factory, but will be home this weekend. I have a few shots on my camera, and once I get them onto my computer (where I can see them), I'll see if they are any good. If so, I'll add to the collection here.
One thing I noticed during the visit which I don't think has been mentioned yet was a slide show on one of the TV's in the factory lunchroom. This is where the party took place, and the TV had numerous excerpts from commentary here on our forum. It was neat to see our members' praises for Thunderbird's products, services, and support broadcast for all to see.
Additionally, many many folks came up to me during the visit offering thanks, and explaining how it was so nice to have something uplifting going on for a change, which left me with a good feeling to say the least.
As for the entire Porter family, I found them to be a most impressive clan.... not so much for their accomplishments, but for their demeanor in spite of their accomplishments. Each and every one of them are just everyday people. I felt it was an honor to spend time with them, as well as all who were present, including Gary, Rose, and Jed....great meeting you guys!
