Chapter 7: The Meeting
Rowdy--- The next morning Liesbet and I took my EV over to the hotel. In the private dining room I introduced her to Aunt Angel, Aunt Joan, Aunt Ana, my Uncle Dan and his wife Aunt Camilla. These people are the hierarchy of the O’Shea family. Before the meeting started, coffee was served by the hotel staff. I saw Angel talking to Liesbet alone, off to themselves. The meeting was called to order and everyone took a seat. Aunt Angel took charge.
“We are here today to listen to an idea that Rowdy and Liesbet have for the ranch. Liesbet, the floor is yours.” Liesbet squeezed my hand then stood and began her presentation. An hour later she finished and sat back down. The discussion started.
First it was Angel. She wanted to know if Ana knew the bank and the banker handling the foreclosure. She did. Angel wanted an appointment immediately.
Dan had an idea. “Why don’t we move the plant to our dock on the river in Conception? That way we could divide the hectare where it is presently located into lots and build houses on it, just like the bank is planning on doing when they get it. We have plenty room there at the dock and our riverboat makes daily trips. I could build the facility you need, even move your de-pulping machine.”
