Jeff,
I know exactly what you mean. I hope that none of the fine folks in Arizona Cobras think that we don't care anymore. I think the AZ Cobras folks are some of the finest folks around. I can't tell you how much Paula and I have enjoyed the times we were able to attend the many events that Mikie and Ginny have planned for the group. It is a true disappointment each and every time we are not able to come along with the group.
You can't just have a club like this exist for as long as it has without caring a lot. Mikie is a guy I truly look up to for his ability to put such a fine group together. He and Ginny have work hard to get things going. But as I look back he now just has to enjoy these moments that happened because he and Ginny took the time to plant the seeds. I am very proud that I can call myself a member of the ARIZONA COBRAS. Heck I even made Bernie one while I was there in Australia. I sure hope that was OK with you Mikie.
The early days were good too. I remember all the hard work by many of the charter members like Bob Broberg, Gordon Levy, Mikie C and Mike Foss. There is many many more But you see my point. Please don't take offense if I left you out.
I think one of the things I'm most proud of are the Charities that we have supported over the years. This group has done a super job of giving especially to the childrens charities.
Besides all this I was able to have as many as 45 Cobras and GT's at my house at once. Now what's not to like about that. I truly missed having that Christmas party last year. It was a sad day for Paula and I.
Things are starting to look up so hopfully this summer we will have a BBQ to end all BBQ's.
I Love Ya' all
Hersh
