Final Thoughts

One red-eye flight and a connecting 6:30am flight and I'm finally back at home. This conference has been pretty intense, I must say.

Some highlights for me were hanging out with the Romaneks.  They were so incredibly nice and every time we spoke about their experiences I saw complete sincerity.  Lisa always welcomed me with a hug. Stan was always cool and welcomed me in.  Their good friends, Mark, Mark, Mark, and Rick were super cool too.  Two of the Marks and rick said they all had experiences/sightings from hanging out with Stan and Lisa.  I hope to have a sighting one day as well. I guess I'll just have to keep looking up.  Might get a stiff neck though.  :)

It was very cool to be able to ask them direct questions about the books and get my own personalized answers.

I got to meet Jaime Maussan. Now HE has a cool dude. I took a few pictures with him. I also found out the he is pretty good friends with the Romaneks and has spent time with them at their homes. My Mexican friend, Ramon is green with envy that I took a picture with Jaime.  Maybe this will influence him to go with me to the UFO Congress in 2014!  :)

James Fox's presentation was pretty good. He's actually a pretty funny person. I wish I would have taken a moment to at least get a pic with him but every time I saw him, he was always engrossed in conversation with someone and I did not want to be impolite.  

I went to an "Experiencer Session" and heard some AWESOME experiences that people have had.  It's funny because after the session, I introduced myself and told him I liked his story and two seconds later, BAM! he handed me the already-created materials.  He said he tells so many people about it that he just decided to write it all down and make copies.  haha.
I'm going to post one with a drawing and the story typed out by the person who experienced it first hand. (Turns out, on the bottom of his story, it says "do not distribute without consent".  So, I'll ask and then post if he says it's ok.)

Also, I think more than anything, I enjoyed all the new friends I made; attendees of the conference.  Regular people.  Some of them did have experiences and some, like me, have never had any experiences.  I took down a lot of names and email addresses and look forward to hopefully seeing these people again next year.  Next year, I hope to be able to bring someone like a family member or a friend.  If you're one of these people reading this now, thanks a lot for being so kind and I hope you find whatever it is you're also looking for.

Here's to 2014!
