Actually, my kids requested a Boston confluence. They want it during baseball season so i can take them to a Red Sox game.

Thanks to all of you that attended. As I've said to a few people, I organize events like this because I get to see all the cool stuff that I might not have the opportunity to otherwise.

I do have one request. In my rush to get out of the house yesterday, I forgot my camera. I would love to get copies of the photos people have taken...

Welcome Dave! I met Dave and did not recognize his name, so I asked about him and he said that he was a lurker.

Glad to see you are no longer one of them. Image

All I can say is "wow"! It was great meeting everyone and seeing all of the great instruments. Everyone was so friendly. The trip from Columbia was 450 miles each way but Virginia is gorgeous this time of year. I will be back!

PS: I wish that I could say that I helped put this show together but it was all Don Cooksey and John Simmons. I was just an innocent bystander.

Yeah, John and Don did some job. My trip was only 315 miles each way, and worth every one.

Hmmmmm.... Is there talk of a Ricfest in Chicago this spring? I know that we might be in the Chicago area from March 30-April 2.... will that weekend work for other Forumites for this type of event? Is there someone living in that area that could do the actual legwork to make it happen?

LOL! How convenient!

Hey, I'd better check the case to make sure my 4002 made it home safely!

Ahhhh.....THERE she is! All is well.... Image

....so who switched Chris's 4002 back to his case and gave me my 4004Ci back?!?!?! Image Image


Actually I checked my cases when I got them to my room, when I got to my car this morning and again when I got home! Yes, just a touch of OCD and paranoia....
