Good day yesterday in Vancouver. Again a really keen group working in masters handling and luckily for me I had a large number of observers at the workshop as well (I think there was about 20 or so of them). Being day two of the [...]

Well Day 3 of Tweener camp yesterday was as awesome as Days 1 & 2. The highlights are numerous. One of the cool thing was the tug drive that has been created and maintained by students that have struggled with it in the past. I [...]
The first "wow" of the day has to go out to Bob Bailey who made it back home yesterday, less than a week after his open heart surgery! Bob is doing well, thank you to all for all of your prayers and positive thoughts. As [...]
