Met Reelgem & Del

edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
I had the pleasure of meeting Reelgem and her husband Del this last Friday. They were kind enough to drive out to the pub to meet Old Bordello and see if I was for real or not. A very nice couple indeed and it was my pleasure to meet and have lunch with them which they were so kind to treat me to. :)

Time seems to fly and they had to head out to take care of their four legged little one who was left behind. Poor little guy, bet he was glad to see them when they got home. I was going to see if they would adopt me but felt that may be a bit much for them. I'm hoping we can meet up again on their next trip out this way.

My thanks to Anne & Del, it was great to meet you and hope to see you again soon.

Del better keep a close eye on me as Anne gives great hugs. :woohoo:

Regards,
Bordello

    Bente I can assure you they seem to be just fine and Del is very lucky to have such a great Hugging Woman. :woohoo:

    Hmmm,
    I keep this up and he won't bring her around again. :(

    Glad you had a good time with Del and Reelgem, two great eggheads and the nicest couple as you know. Reelgem posted some great cooks, she knows her stuff and they also are a proud owner of one of my egg tables.
    Hope to see them again at an eggfest.
    Thanks for sharing Bordello!
    Have a great day.

    Great picture.
    Glad you were able to sneak in a lunch with the Packers.
    We sure miss them down here in the south.
    Looks like we will have to make a road trip north.
    Thank you,

    ah ha! So you are in fact now selling your finely crafted tables! Are two planning on Oswego in a couple weeks? I have an unavoidable conflict.

    Bob,
    Del and I really enjoyed meeting the infamous "Bordello" at the "Pub", which was beautiful. Not at all like we had expected. We had a great time visiting with you and you were a most kind and gracious host. We also got to meet Lindsay (one of Bob's girl's):) She is a sweetheart and a very pretty girl.
    We also got to meet alot of your other friends and talk with them and we all concluded you're one great guy. You're just one of those guys that would be there anytime, anywhere if someone needed you. We will definitely keep in touch and give you a call next time we're in town.

    Clay, Del and I had a great time up at your shop. It was soooo interesting. We really learned alot. I've been meaning to post the pictures of my mini table you made me. It's just gorgeous and we get so many compliments on it. I don't have the pictures with me on this computer but as soon as we get back to Milwaukee I will post them. It it definitely the most beautiful mini table you've made to date.....unless you've got one you're taking the FL fest that tops it. I'll have to check out the pictures from the fest. Wish we could be there.

    Darian, we miss you and Lora too. Thanks for the great picture you sent of both of you and your egg family. Beautiful job on the new cooking area you built. You'll either have to come to AZ or WI one of these days to visit us.
