… and thank you for the kind words, though I am wondering about the “deserving” part… I have always been pretty thankful that in many cases I did NOT get what I deserved! 
I’ve heard great comments about your workshop, and I know you put your heart and soul into it as always. You’re the James Brown of lenders… the hardest working mentor in the RE bidness! I hated to miss it, but between derby car races, wedding rehearsals, twin daughters dates, and a wife out of town, I didn’t have time to blink.
We’ve got the commercial board all warmed up for you… JohnBoy is there with another wild plan that is almost starting to make sense, and Millie is still dipping her toe in the water for some commercial deals. Jim Rayner is there bragging on you as always. We’ve got several new folks that were like me… lurking on creo but working commercial deals… had a great discussion on conduit loans. And I’ve told several of the folks that they need to hear you talk about romancing bankers… some of these guys don’t realize that that is where the money is! So come on over, we’re having a lot of fun.
Great to have you back, and congratulations to you and Terry on another great workshop!
