MRO (Foenix For Fun)

Last Monday I headed to Phoenix for an industry exhibition (The MRO Americas) at the new convention center downtown. I first golfed in a tournament at the Biltmore. It was a best ball scramble and our 4-some hit 14 under par! I contributed about... nothing to the score. Here is our landing craft/booth thing. All these dudes are Wencor guys buying, selling, doing deals, acting important in their "monkey suits" (after hours we heard a tour guide tell a group of school kids that if they stayed in school they could wear monkey suits like these people).
Unlike the golf, not all was hard work. Here, all these yahoos are having fun at Wencor's expense -- we sponsored a suite and watched the Kansas City Cardinals beat the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. It was a game in the 8th inning though!

That looks like fun...too bad I don't live in Phoenix, so that I could tag along... OH WAIT-I do live in Phoenix. Thanks for the call Uncle Nate, it was good to see you too!
