Hi Karl, I really enjoyed meeting you, and am glad you returned home safely. And, Happy Birthday to you also, and what a wonderful birthday cake. Excellent pictures you took of Craig's boat, obviously a better camera than everyone's phone cameras. I think you should be the official team photographer for the next meeting. Hope you'll be able to make the long journey next year. Mike

Karl,

Pattie and I both really enjoyed meeting you and ordering some good Southern breakfasts for you. Now post some more pics!

Oh yeah...Happy 70th! I hope I'm still as happy as you when I hit it!

Well we just returned home from our little road trip around the south-east US. Had a great time at the meet. If I tried to name everyone I would miss somebody so I will say I enjoyed meeting each and everyone of you. It is truly a great group of folks here on this site :!: If any of you ever get to this part of the world please let me know and stop by for a visit.

I did not take enough pictures but I do have a few. Here is SeaSlugs beautiful FS-18Image

I thought I had pictures of SeaSlugs hatches but I can not find them :( Needless to say they are really nice.
I did get a picture of Ken's FS-14 ls. Seeing one in real life makes a world of difference. I really liked it :D

Karl, birthday boy :D, Doc, JM and CapeMan with his back to us.
Thanks to CapeMan for the BBB, it was really good, and for taking Karl and I to breakfast.
Everyone made me feel welcome and I had a great time.
