Just returned from Vegas (drove) , traffic backed up at Hoover, decided to take alternate route instead Bullhead, Havasu etc.

First would like to say a big thanks to Tony for everything -Time, effort, work, expenses etc etc , and Matt from Colorado. Shelly and Chris Shelton - Thanks also. Tony offered instruction, hands on, real life, virtually one on one that is simply INVALUABLE, PRICELESS and put in 12+ hour days doing it.

Matt gave tips everyone needs - website info.

Anthony gave instruction on sighting in your rifle. PETA!

Having a prop mgr was excellent.

Ron... was Ron. Hey, you can't argue with success and if you can soak up a little Ron-ness, you'r moving forward - Probably as always Ron was the motivating factor to the event. Somewhere during his presentation I got distracted and kept thinking Tom Arnold was talking about pressure washing...

Jim, thanks for making the trip. THE RIG is a motivation to see what is possible and how far things can be taken. I felt we had a special moment 50' up Tonys' lift with a high crosswind!

Now picture this - we arrive at Vegas DMV, which Tony has picked because all powerwashing was eliminated from the budget and it is truly a worst-case scenario - and there is a crew of 3, with a Depot, cold water machine and a turbo nozzle, various acids and a metal scraper giving the best, text-book example of bad powerwashing ever seen! What are the odds?? And then Jim rolls up! Too funny!

Thanks to all.
 
There are two people who did more than Chris, Matt and I did, my wife Shelly and Chris' wife Jill.

Shelly spent at least 4 hrs everyday giving people rides. On top of that she found time to videotape most of the RT and training in addition to running all over the place to get food. She's been giving rides to the airport since 3:30 this morning to give me some rest before the Monday and Tuesday training classes

Jill had to take care of all the calls and running for both businesses since last Wednesday. She cooked and cleaned and got everything ready for the trainees for coil cleaning. On top of all that she's had to take care of Carlos and Fayth this entire time and you know how kids try to get away with everything when there are a lot of people around!

I'm so tired I can't see straight, but these two have done twice as much as I have in the past 4 days. I don't know how they do it.

I've got to repost these two videos to thank Shelly and Jill. How lucky is it that a father and son both get blessed with the #1 best and #2 best women in the world !!! (though we will argue over which is #1 and which is #2)

I'm jealous of everybody that went to RT's this weekend! I was a miserable guy. let me tell you. I was too busy to watch Vegas, and thought about both the big RT's as I was working and NOT networking and BSing with the guys.

I hope everybody had safe trips home, and a great time getting together.

The hosts of all RT's should have a special spot in Paradise!:cool:
 
Many Thanks to Tony, Chris, Jill and Most of All Shelly for everything they did, This Family went out of there way to help me out and it was more then Appreciated. I don't think they could have found a better group to host an event and I will not forget the all the help and kindness they showed at this RT.

What a Great group of Washer here in Vegas, had a ton of fun and remember what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas :D
 
I need to give a very special thanks to Tony, Shelly, Chris and Jill for being such great people, helping out in so many ways, doing so much for all of us attending, giving rides all over the place at all hours of the morning and nite and great food. hahahahaha

Thanks for being so hospitable and letting me stay there with you guys and showing what families are all about.

Thanks for all the info, teaching, and whatever else I can't remember right now. I want to go back as soon as I can.

Thanks.

Tony...Shelley...Chris and Jill all worked their butts off and did a GREAT JOB!!! Not only were they extremely organized, but they accomplished it in a HUGE city where lots of things could have gone wrong. I had a great time. Tony, I would like to thank you for the class. I had to work today and while on the roof noticed that the coils to all 7 units were EXTREMELY dirty soooo...guess who will be putting in a bid to clean those puppies.

Tony, we gotta get together more often; we're too close to not be in better contact ;)
 
The Shelton's are an amazing family and company - what an unbelievably well orchestrated event - we're finally back home - I only have 200 photos from Saturday & Sunday to load up but right now, all I can think about is sleep! Catch you all tomorrow!

Celeste
 
OK so I should have thanked the Shelton Ladies first. Just awesome, Thanks.

But, I say the most important thing is attitude - There is NOTHING better than a woman who is on your side, by your side, especially when your in business for yourself, so congratulations Shelton boys.
 
It was fantastic. Shellie, Tony, Chris and Jill were super hosts and organizers. Tony worked hard to cram it all in, even though we ran out of time. Chris is an invaluable to Tony and on his way to establishing his own gig. Sherri and Jill kept up the appearance of everything running smoothly. Great team work. Great event.
Thank You very much.

You can't make it roger, it was created by alien technology and cannot be duplicated. But if you wear kevlar glasses....you can look at it for short periods of time without much danger.:p
 
Round Table Thanks and Thoughts

Forgive me for taking so long to say this. I returned from Las Vegas Sunday around 3:30 PM and us old guys don’t move very fast. I spent yesterday trying to get my desk cleaned off. I still have quite a bit to do on that project.

Tony, Chris, Matt, Shelly, Jill, Ron and all of you who worked so hard to make the Las Vegas Round Table the tremendous success that it was “THANK YOU.” This was my first opportunity to attend one of your events. If all of the others are as informative and pleasurable as this was I know that they will grow in magnitude and popularity.

I was afforded the opportunity to meet so many nice people with whom I have spoken over the years but never met. In the same light I was able to renew some old acquaintances. Michael, Doug it was great seeing you again. Chris between you, Michael and I Texas was represented well. Celeste I’ll bet you nearly wore your camera out. You are one hard working lady. I am looking forward to meeting you husband. If he works as hard as you do I’ll bet North Carolina is the cleanest state in the U.S. A. Anthony it was a true pleasure visiting with you. I will look forward to the opportunity to get together in the future and find out if we can run some small unsuspecting state out of Jack Daniels. Tracy you sir are a gentleman and a scholar, thank you sir for your help. It is easy to see why Pete is happy all of the time. To the two precious babies Carlos and Fayth who worked as hard as their little bodies would allow a “Special Thank You” I know that your parents are proud.

Keep up the great work and you all will build an organization that will stand out in the annals of pressure washing history.

Let me know if I can ever be of assistance to any of you.

Larry, it was great to finally meet you. You are certainly a gentleman and your kind words about our family and this RT are appreciated.

If I had known about your work on the less expensive reclaim stuff I would have begged you to make a full presentation at the RT. I've been unable to keep up with what you guys are doing over the past month because the RT kept me frazzled.

Thanks for coming and thank you again for your kind words.
 
I too am now seeing this post and just returning from a little R&R,

Vegas was my first round table and it was definitely worth the trip.

Big, Big thanks to the Shelton family, talk about prep time, and being accommodating, you guys and girls are the best.

You treated this Caribbean guy like family. (Shelly your food was fantastic and thank you for being our designated driver, blessing upon you,your family and home)

It was truly awesome to meet business owners passionate about the same thing, bettering the industry and sharing knowledge.

Great meeting everyone.

(Tony, now you know am not hung up on my F250, :) )
