Hi guys!

I had a great time today!
We went to TCS then 'cross the street to the Bison County, and later over to
Lizzy's for some fabulous ice cream...

I've got a few pics that I took at Lizzy's... but I'm in a bit of a bind right
now-- I'm going to Canada early tomorrow morning, and my host-site is very
problematic right now. So... I managed a few captions for the first three pics
here:

They look nice.  Its cool to see a couple pics from this afternoon.  I had a
great time meeting you all.  Getting to finally see Todd & Suz in person was
really neat.

And I also have a few more pics here...

<type in the numbers manually, they go all the way to 771>

Since I can't add words on those, I'll say a few words here...:
Todd brought his amazing-hilarious dino-mechs, which he later left for Crispin
to put up in one of the back glass cases in TCS...

Oh, he did?  I didn't catch that.  Those models were great!

Tim had a few of his Zacktron stuff (I liked the modular shuttle - no pics),

Come to think of it, since I have most of the pieces now to complete the
standard, I should finish it off and take some pictures and post them.  I also
need to update the Zacktron site... :\

plus a tiny (and cool) fire truck.

Which I need to LDraw and get some pics of.  I really like that truck a lot
too.  I based it off the van in the Midnight Transport (drug smuggling) set
exactly, just reconfigured it for fire equipment.

Shaun brought a great WW2-era tank, I liked it a lot! (no pics)

*DROOL*

Eric Joslin arrived with a cool VW beetle-submarine (which we were hoping had
something to do with the Beatles, but no ;-) and a very scary mecha.
I dragged my inn, and a whole bunch of minifigs... Plus I brought a customized
piece or two, some people looked away in horror.. :-)

They can cry all they want, sometimes customized pieces actually *enhance*
models ;)

Matthew Miller, Eric K, Sun, Steve and Suz brought themselves... (that's good
enough for me!)

We had a great time, IMO, or at least I did!

Yep, me too.  I'd like to do this again sometime when I'm back in the area.

I'll try to get my (few) pics posted along with the many pics I have of my
California trip and visits to AFOLs there when I return home.
