To everyone who helped make this vacation really great for me.

A huge thanks to my team mate Tony (Kimsan808) who came down to ER and back with me three times in a week and a half time period. A big thanks to Myles, Aaron, and the rest of the ER Team for putting in so much work in such a short time period on my IX. Both Tony and Aaron for putting together a really great video. A huge thanks to my team mates who made it to my daughters bday party, TJ (idrinkv8), Tony (kimsan808), Elree (DecepticonsMR), Rob (jdmevo8), and John (thrilla). A big thanks to Justin aka: Le Stud for putting on the Alki meet for me and making it a blast as always, also thanks to everyone who came out for that meet.

A big thanks to my whole team for really representing at the Mitsuparts meet this past weekend. A big congrats to our President TJ for taking both Best Mitsu and Viewers Choice awards home (dont worry, your speech was great ). And a big thanks to everyone who came out and spent some time talking at the meets. Big thanks to Shane, Angie, Joey B, Ryan Kauz, my neighbor Will, and everyone else I had a chance to visit with. It was really great seeing you guys. Also a huge thanks to Washington for providing some great weather all vacation long.

And last but of course not least, a big, big, HUGE thanks to my beautiful wife Mags and my beautiful daughter Keilani for coming out to the meet for hours and supporting me and the team. You guys are my life!

Thanks to all of you for really helping make this vacation one to remember. Looking forward to seeing you guys again in December.
