I was walking Sam along the road outside of our campground, Krazy K RV Park in Camp Verde, AZ, and admiring the massive HAM radio tower in someone's yard. That "someone" was at his mailbox as we passed, so we started talking. Norman, a long time HAM, was happy to help a newbie with questions. I noticed the company logo on his shirt and learned he worked 31 years for the same company that relocated our daughter and son-in-law to Oregon. He had been retired for 17 years, so of course, they never met. But still, what are the chances?
Norm's antenna had a few issues that needed attention and I volunteered to help. I had no actual antenna experience, but I hoped I could provide some muscle and maybe learn a little in the process.
I'm happy we are spending a month here - I have so much to learn and Norman seems happy to help me develop my new found hobby.
