Life conspiring against me for York, this time around!

Mike,

 

Family comes first. There will be another York in 6 months. Hope your Dad is doing better.

Life does happen weather your ready or not! I had my York badges last fall but other things in life had to take priority. It will be twice as sweet when you get back to the halls next time! Do what you gotta do see you next trip.

Mike.....we understand. You will be missed......but family always comes 1st.

See you in October.

 

I wish your Dad a speedy recovery.

Mike your priority's are where they should be. Hope all turns out well.

Mike:

 

Don't sweat it. Due to life's challenges, the last York meet I attended was April in 2008. It will be there when you're ready just as it will be for me when I can.

 

Please accept my best wishes for improved health for your father.

Mike,

 

Sorry about you missing this York session.   Maybe w'll see you at the NJ-Hirailers (as a member?)

Mike you are doing the right thing for sure. Our family's are at the top of my list and yours also from your post. I also would ove to be at York and maybe some day I will.

I also enjoy all the photo's people post.

Mike I feel your pain! You however, have far better reasons to miss York than I do. 

I ordered my badge early and tried to finagle my way out of a company meeting but couldn't.  Since work is interfering I have to eliminate it :-)  Hello retirement! I think I here it calling me.

Yup ..... don't sweat the little stuff.

 

Quick, full recovery to Pops, and Happy Birthday to you're "little" girl!

 

This was to be my first York, but I'm stuck in a wheelchair rehabbing a back injury. Looking forward to the fall York meet.

 

Jim

 

 

Thanks, guys, for all the good wishes.  I've had some good luck in past Yorks so I really can't complain, especially when there are many who for reasons, geographic and otherwise, have never been able to experience the fun.  

 

At least I'll have the excitement of "opening" two new train catalogs when they come online tomorrow morning.  

 

"So I got that going for me, which is nice."  

 

 

Enjoy the Birthday party and best wishes to your dad. 

Mike we will miss you, but family is first. Happy birthday to your daughter and I hope your dad is doing well

Well you have to enjoy your dauther birthdays.Because like you said she going to be out on her own.The same goes for your dad.There will be other yorks.Enjoy your family and the trains you already have.Stay chuging my friend.

Almost didn't make it myself. On April 6 my wife got in a bad car accident. She was a passenger in her sister's car. They were traveling 65 mph in the right hand lane on I76 west bound in Mahoning County in OH. A semi-truck driver decided he wanted to be in the same lane. He did an improper lane change and performed a pit maneuver to the car, spinning it around 360 degrees while hitting it numerous times. Air bags did not deploy. EMS had to cut away the driver's door so that they could remove my sister-in-law. My wife's door was able to be opened. The car was considered totaled. Both were taken to the hospital. My wife suffered a whiplash and muscle pain to her left shoulder and right hip. My sister-in-law has a cracked pelvis and whiplash. It could have been much worse. 

Wow Bill sorry to hear about this, but like you said It could have been much worse.

I can hear it from here.

Sorry you won't be here. Hope all goes well with your Dad.

I know how you feel!  My unused York badges are in my glove box.  My son had a game last night (I'm the coach) and of course it was rained out..lol

 

I hope your Dad is doing well and let's hope we both make it in October (along with Bill) !
