Prize Gloat

[Old Lar]

Late last week I received my prize from the donation drawing for the Birthday Bash. What a great prize (even has my name on it)!!!
Thanks publically to Doug and Thompson Tools for the prize and support for IAP Bash.
I am bragging now, but I also won some alumilite in the trivia contest. I don't typically brag, but I don't usually win much of anything. Thanks to Alumilite and Thompson tools for their support for IAP!

Congrats Larry. Lucky for you, you'll have an abundance of free time to play with you new toys too!

You might have to change your name from "OLD LAR" to something like "Lucky Larry"

Enjoy the toys.

Thanks Ian. My wife and I visited NZ four years ago. A beautiful country! I even managed to bring a little kauri home with me. Thank you again for the good wishes.

Congrats on your winnings and retirement! I'm envious with 7 more years before I get more shop time.

One small piece of advice about retirement - when you walk off the job for the last time - never look back. That part of your life is behind you and there is a whole different world in front of you - keep your eye on the front.
