From Chairman Laszlo in Seattle.
Greetings Bill
You probably heard from Don that we have
experienced a rather costly transmission
problem
with our motor home in Montana.
After it was fixed and we arrived to
Seattle I acquired a E-coli bacterium
infection and have
been hospitalized for 3 days but the
main problem was that I blacked out,
fell from our RV
and broke a little bone in my left foot.
I am in an air-cast now but I can
walk....so...so.
We are flying back to Europe on the 5th
of September arriving in Dusseldorf on
the 6th.
I do not know if I go to Hungary to that
Ham fest in September. The same one
where John
and Diana participated last year.
I am reading your weekly with great joy
here and wishing to be on the air with
you all.
Planning to be back ...and on the
air...in CT about October.
Till than I wish you good health and
stay vertical with the rest of the
"gang".
Great to hear from you Laszlo. Best 73
from all members. Take Care !
That's all for this week,
73 de Bill g4yze
