I attended Joe's seminar... also had supper with your boys.
Joe did great in his seminar today. He presented clearly and concisely. He also was calm and collected... much less nervous than last year. I'm looking forward to tomorrow's lesson.
Be proud for you have good reason to feel so.

Jane I attended 1 of Joe' talks. He did great job. I am looking forward to seeing the video that Ben filmed.
Dan has teased Raymond a lot. I think Dan and Raymond atte ded all of each others talks. There weren't nearly As many Attendes nor as many vendors as i the pakst. The bullpen was active.

Joe did a great job in his second seminar. As he gets experience he is doing better and better all the time. I learned some new things too, even though I don't use Corel... I'll apply these bots to Illustrator.
Be proud Diaz family!

Mom and Dad...you should be extremely proud of your boys! I attended their seminars and learned a lot of good stuff. Since I wasn't there last year, I don't have a comparison, but Joe was concise, clear, and very informative and just inspired all of us.
Also, I got to attend two of Dan Sowhatshisname's classes. It was good to be able to get a nap in the middle of the day! On Friday our classes overlapped each other, so I wasn't able to attend that one, but Dan said the place was sold out and they had people standing around the walls. There were three in my class (including the two Diaz brothers).
Besides being able to listen to some powerfully talented people, one of the best parts of USSC was just hanging out with old friends. I'm home now and licking my wounds from being beat up by Dan, but the time spent with him, the Diaz brothers, Dan Antonelli, Mark Roberts, Bill Riedel (and many others) was just a real battery charger.
I didn't get to spend a lot of time in the Bull Pen, but some great work was being done there, and for a great cause.
Publically, I would like to apologize to Mr. Sawatzky...I had promised I would buy him supper on Friday evening and it slipped my mind when we were at the restaurant (how convenient). Anyway, the next time we are together I promise to follow up on the deal.
True to form, Dan has no direction and has no idea where he's going. We walked all over the Boardwalk, through casinos and up and down looking for a place to eat on Thursday evening. I'm not sure how he became to be in charge of the expedition (we never took a vote), but that's how it ended up.
Love ya Dan.
