Natalie; The first meeting, as is so common, was a just "get to know everybody" type. I just was so happy to put faces on the names. It is now more fulfilling to see Peggy Delgato's name (example) and know her as a real person that I have met and spoken to. Once the ice is broken, the subsequent activities can be planned with more confidence and with people you "know". For me, it was especially nice to meet Deena Ortiz. We had a common interest and it was nice to share a moment.
Between you and me, the food was so good and there was so much of it !

I think that there will more meetings everywhere, now that this one has set the stage here in So. calf.

I wish you happiness,

Jose Luis Macias
