GERRY Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Is there anyone who lives on Vancouver Is. who could teach me the newbie basics ?? I live in Duncan. :cool: I would love to take lessons from Darlene Epp in Abbotsford, & I hope to in the future, but I have 2 little boys at home & the cost of travel & accomadations would put a strain on an already tight budget. I do know there are at least 7 LArs. in Victoria, I wonder if anyone would take bitty on me and show me how to get started. I bought a 2 year old Milli. from Ontario, & it should be here in early May. I would be happy to travel locally to take training, maybe day trips or somthing. You can e-mail me if you wish, I have'nt got that U2U thing quite right yet. I'm very happy that I found this forum before I even bought my Milli. You folks are the best! there is so much help & info here, & I've already spent long hrs. reading ( I can't understand it all yet, but I will ).

arlenef Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Hi Gerry........how exciting! I got my Freedom a couple months ago and it's been so much fun! I want to go to Darlene's too, but like you $$ is definately a factor. I live in Vernon so can't help you much other than to suggest that you get a couple old sheets and a blanket (thirft store stuff) to load and practise on. I found them very easy to deal with and easy to play around on..... A lot of the info is easier to understand when the machine is in front of you arlene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaB Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I understand $$$ is always a concern, but if there was any way one could swing taking Darlene's class, I HIGHLY recommend it. I traveled from Oregon to take her class way back in the early early spring of 2002, through a snow/wind/ice storm in fact....and I learned so much from her in those 3 days....She really got me started in the right direction.... I sincerely hope you could swing it...Best of luck, and enjoy your APQS machines, you've bought the BEST!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GERRY Posted April 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Thanks- Lind B: I think I just sent an e-mail to you Arlene: I may have to do what you have sugested, I would very much like to take classes from Darlene Epp, but I can't swing it on my budget at the moment, maybe this summer :cool: if the DH can take a few days off from work. I know that there are at lest 7 LArs. in Victoria, I'll keep trying a little longer, my Milli. should arrive the first week in May, so I have a little more time to hunt down someone who would show me the ropes. wish me luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
