I am nearby, but have been pretty sick, and not sure what to do. I definitely can't eat.

All Set For Fun Event.

We will be there -- bringing name tags & pens to help match names with faces.

Fun Feature: Each time you refill your plate, take a different place at the table so that everyone gets some face time with as many of the group as possible.

oh boy, I missed it and i thought that the 21st was on Thursday, I was planning to go today. how many came. Ironically, we were just walking around with the baby and could have been there. I see that I have misfigured the dates on everything, as I just got a notice from the post office that my hold mail order expired. One day off all week.

oh boy, I missed it and i thought that the 21st was on Thursday... One day off all week.

I hate when that happens...
It also results in toting the garbage to the street on the wrong day.

Thanks for posting the pictures Mike.
I'm so glad to have met all of you and be able to put faces to names.

Now where was TUG Brian? :p
Doesn't he live near Orlando?

TUG Command Central is in Orange Park FL, up by Jacksonville.

That's where the TUG Grand Pro lives, I believe.

We're still here in good ole St Augustine! yes, chilly -- for down here - but. as we say, better than up north ingthe snowstorm.

We drive Thursday to ATL to leave our van with a friend while we fly back to Seattle.

See you all next year - we hope!

I had a great time! So nice to meet the faces behind the names!

I was a bit nervous going - figure I'd be the odd duck out with everyone else already knowing each other. But it wasn't like that at all. Everyone was super friendly and everyone mingled. No one was ever left by themselves - it made it a challenge to eat :hysterical:

So if there's ever a TUG get-together near you, GO!
