We've lost a couple of people in the final days. Nano-Man advises that he's got the flu (get better soon!) and can't join us.

I'm still planning to be there! See you all at 1:30.

Everyone who missed this, did miss something. The pictures don't tell the story of the laughs and conversations in the bus. We also don't get to see (why didn't we take pictures?) the mess that is Mark's fishroom. Really, man, clean it up once in a while! Seriously, that display and fishroom setup is immaculate, and an inspiration. You missed the fun of crawling (that's right, crawling) into Steve & Laurie's equipment room, and peeking into their fuge and finding a sweet hidden gem of a pipefish! Such a contrast to their big tank and big fish. I also enjoyed the well-hidden zoa garden back there. And Lando... man, whatever you're doing to get those colors.... ai-ai-ai. Keep doing it.

We also stopped at Blue World, which is fast becoming my favorite LFS, and at Tim Horton's. No fish or corals there. This was one of Neal's mandatory stops.

Dinner was also fun. Lot's of great conversation.

Neal's suggesting that we make it annual, so you might get another chance.

Again, I'd like to thank Neal and our hosts for a fun day!

This by far is the best picture. Well done Steve.

I had a great time!

Everyone on the bus had wicked senses of humor.... it really was a blast. The tanks were amazing, and I too want to tank (yeah, pun intended) those who opened their homes. I wish I could say I learned something, but I think my brains already too full, cuz nothing seems to sink in anymore! I enjoyed looking at the beautiful tanks instead of what was underneath them!

Neal did a great job maneuvering that bus around the city and did a fine job of tuning out the rowdies in the back. Tanks again, Neal, I can't wait till your stores up and running!

Tanks (yeah, it's a theme) too to Blue World for receiving our bus load of reef fanatics and for the great salt door prizes! I did win, and I'm happy, happy, happy!!

Tank you, too, Matt for organizing this great reef tour. It's not easy herding cats, is it?!

Oh, and Steve, that photo of Landos dog is a treasure!!

JOEL	04-01-2008 01:46 AM

Thanks to everyone who made this possible, I had a blast.
Pic's look great as well. It was nice to put a face to some of the names I see
on canreef. Oh and Matt you can start your new list for next year and put my name down.
LOL

mark	04-02-2008 01:55 AM

As well, thanks to all and put me down for next year.
