mark another notch on the EBH install belt. THANKS WAYNE, Sorry you had to get Evan dirty or was that your plan

( he had Evan crawl under my car, some sadistic plan).

It was great to meet the people on this site that attended the Hybridfest.

Can you guess who's legs belong to who?

I have never before met a man who so thoroughly enjoys climbing under other people's cars for little/no compensation.

For those who were unable to attend, you can see in the picture containing Evan and his son Heath that the view of the lake on Friday was spectacular. Weather was great and above all, the afternoon was make enjoyable through the company of friends.

Craig,

A pleasure to have met you and your wife. Hope you get good use from the block heater. And I hope your discovery of "true" cheese curds enriches your life.

I'm also a recipient of an EBH install by Wayne at Hybridfest. Except for the scratches on
his arm he made it look easy. I think he said I was the third so far this weekend and I know
he did one right after mine. Whats your total now?

I plugged it in for the recommended 3 hours and it puts out alot of heat.

Wayne,

Thanks again for the EBH install. Hope your hands are doing better.

BTW...wife and I ended up eating at Uno's in Chicago. Pretty good stuff, but doesn't beat the cheese cruds.

Hi Everybody,
I had the pleasure of meeting Wayne and his family at HF 08. He is truly an amazing man. He called me from the hotel lobby before he checked in. Then, he installed my ebh before he even went to his room for the first time. He and his son Richard did the install in about 20 minutes. Wayne showed me exactly where he secured the harness and was very thorough in his explanation. Our friend Freshmtt was kind enough to run for lunch for Wayne and his family plus her and I. Wayne and I talked shop for a while and it was a true joy to meet him. Thanks a million Wayne, you are the real deal.

HI Everybody!
I had a great time meeting everybody at Hybridfest!

Wayne, I can't thank you enough for installing my EBH for me and you even did it while the Mosquitos were attacking you!!

It was great getting to meet all the fellow Hybrid owners. I have never seen so many Prius at one time before.

Ray it was really wonderful getting to spend time with you and Joyce.

I can't wait till next year. I am definately bringing my daughter next year as there was so much to see at the Fair I know she will not be bored.

I was the last one he did and it was a little squirrely.

Thanks so much Fire Engineer. I was so glad you were there for the installations.

Hope all is well with you and your family.
