In the interim was Covid, the onset of my wife's dementia and all the woe that entails. I had big hopes to go to the National this summer. Wanted to shake hands with many old friends one more time. Have been sidelined by, of all things, a goddam hernia and am relegated to the dreadful waiting list for surgery that is a failing of our "free" medical plan in Canada. Am just not up to running the gauntlet of airports and particularly having to deal with the friendly psychos at the US border. I'm aware that many of you don't give a hoot whether I'm there or not but some of the old-timers might want to know that ol' Kawika sends his regrets.

Best of luck with your wife's dementia David, my mother is going through the same thing. Love and patience is the order of the day.

I'll be there for the first time since 2019. Looking forward to hanging out with friends more than anything else, but bringing a long want list just in case.

best part of the National is meeting up and seeing everyone and finally meeting people from the forum or with whom I have made trades/purchases and never met in person
