The Hall of Fame

Rex is now a QRP Hall of Famer. He said this morning that if he hadn't been so incoherent with emotion while accepting the award, he would have thanked me and Kayti. "For my grudging support, you mean?" I asked innocently.

Now that he's been validated, he'll probably spend twice as much time on QRP. Don't see how that's possible, though, since he's already QRP-occupied 24/7.

We'll be leaving Ohio today, and not a moment too soon. I can't stand being in a room with this many mirrors. If hotel furnishers were smart, they'd put in mirrors that make you look good. It will be good to get home and be able to keep my eyes open in the bathroom.

It's actually quite chilly out today. Not the Ohio I've come to know and appreciate. My exit strategy for today -- the one I dictated to my family yesterday -- is in shambles, and it's only 8:50 a.m. Instead of dashing from MetroPark to MetroPark, taking the pictures I should have taken in the past few days, I'm doing laundry and cattle-prodding Rex to pack up his stuff.

Kayti, of course, is still in bed, sleeping soundly.

  1. I wish I could have been there to see Rex honoured. A recognition he richly deserves for all the stuff he does for the hobby that most people don't see (except perhaps for Deb & Kayti). Welcome to the Hall of Fame Rex.

    Kind regards

  2. Hi Tony! Yes, Rex does deserve to be in the QRP Hall of Fame. I'll make sure he sees your comment. And we wish you could have been there too!
