THIS IS FOR MY PEOPLE. Hospitable, kind, and genuine are the
words that come to mind to describe those who we encountered and interacted
with during this trip. Some took us in as if we were members of their extended
family in town for a visit. Some made it their mission to show us a good time
and assure that we experienced as much as possible. Some were fascinated with
our swagger and wanted to hangout so it could rub off on them not knowing that
the intentions were mutual. Some relationships started as business and ended as
a friendship. Some started as friendships and made it easy to do business.
As my father says “we are just plain folks,
trying to have a good time.” I believe that if you exude respect, are genuine,
and have overall good character it is recognized and reciprocated.
Now for some
cliché statements to wrap up: “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” “Treat other’s
the way you would want to be treated.” “Don’t worry, be Happy.”
To Smitty, Phillip, Rommel, Snake, Sammy D, Ted, Adrian and
many more I thank you, your eclectic personalities have represented your
country well, I can only hope we did the same.
