Friday, September 11 was a fascinating day and beyond that a day that is proving to be most fruitful. I met lots of interesting people and I found several products that struck my fancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s start at the beginning; my host was a most delightful fellow. He invited me to the shindig and put me up in his hotel; the digs were good. Our roommate was Craig B. Snyder who was hawking his beautiful new book: Secret History Of The Olllie. A 900+ page extravaganza; this brand-new book has won national awards. It contains mountains of interesting text and over 1200 images and photos many of which have never been seen. Of course I purchased an autographed copy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fellow who invited me, Michael Brooke, owns a publishing company. He produces beautiful magazines which are sold around the world. His publication Concrete Wave is a beautiful piece of work. And as a host he can\u2019t be beat, he gave me a good place to sleep and fed me breakfast. We spent hours together talking \u2013 solving the problems of the planet. Smile. We had a great time. The two of us have some big plans for mutual endeavors in the future. Simpatico best describes us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The room containing the show was gargantuan \u2013 resembling an airplane hangar. There were hundreds of exhibitors. The room was filled with beautiful women and totally buff young men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I do product reviews and I found several for me to test with my camera crew producing videos for the Internet and advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I met some people who are interested in helping me get my message out: I am making the world a healthier and happier place through my \u2013 Never Leave The Playground program. I am also making the world a more beautiful place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also because of attending Surf Expo Orlando 2015 I have decided to learn to wakeboard and kite board in my 75th year. How about that? Many of you know how crucial I feel it is to keep moving. It is the secret to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Warmly,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
