[Heeplist] Myrtle Beach Trip/Heepvention 99

[staf.p at skynet.be]

Re-live that all again at Heepvention 2015 in a not so beach-like 
environment, but never the less, a beautyful and calm one.
Not the part where people fall of course, or die godforbidden.

I am slowly making progress and soon will have enough info to call a meeting 
with a few compagnions.

I hope you all stay safe and healthy bro's and sis's, so i can see you again

There is not enough time in one day to list all the memories from HV’99, but 
I will always cherish the time Helen and I had with Merrick (Madman) Kathy 
and Gina at the beachfront condo we shared while in Myrtle Beach. There were 
only two things that didn’t go well, and that was the fact that Dave Griffin 
had to leave early to be with his wife, because of a death in her 
family……..the other was my wife, Helen, falling on her knee during the Jam 
night and having to first be carried to a car by myself and Louis Rentrop 
and then later taken to emergency to get crutches because she could hardly 
walk. Other than that, it was one of the best times I have had ever !!!!
