Very good choice you made, Lance
That Helson is built like a tank. Enjoy it in good health for a long time.
Thanks a lot, appreciated it! Peter is doing such a great job with his watches. I only wish I had the expendable income so I could purchase the Sharkmaster as well.
Btw, short story; “Once Upon a Time, a Long, Long, Longer Time Ago” I was part of Continental Airlines new hires to work their Air New Zealand passenger service and baggage handling contract in Honolulu.
After working with the New Zealander’s, I will say what an absolute pleasure it was in assisting them, as well as working with Air New Zealand's Passenger Service Managers and Crew.
I remember a girl (from New Zealand) traveling home who got stuck in HNL International during the Holiday season (no rooms available anywhere, in fact people were sleeping wherever they could find in the Airport. Always made the front page during the Christmas Holiday travel season). Called my parents, which immediately opened their doors to her. I finally (after cashing in a few markers as well as passing out a few of mine as well….LOL) got her out in only a few days. In all honesty, I think she wanted to stay a while longer. Because my folks had a beautiful home, a few blocks from the ocean as well as being kind of like a mini resort, with Pikaki flowers growing along my old bedroom windows.
A few weeks later, while working our flights. Someone told me I had a parcel in the back office. Her family sent me a box with a thank you note packed solid with Racks and Racks of Lamb.
My friends and family had one heck of a BBQ. They sent so much Lamb that Ma was sharing it with the Family. This is the kind of memories that brings a smile when I think about it.
