Thanks to jim for hosting, the multitude of companies who donated, and everyone who came down (or came east - seems there were more BC'ers than edmontonians this time!)

Yes indeedy I ended up leaving Calgary late and felt like it was the longest drive back home to Edmonton, ever. I was SoOoOO tired and ended up making it home just after 4a.m. But... it was WORTH IT!


Thanks Jim & Diana for hosting an awesome meet! You were truly great hosts, food was awesome, company was great and your tank setup was truly awesome. Btw...NICE cabinet work done by Majestic Aquariums! WOWZERS! Rob, you guys did an amazing job! *CLAP*

Also it was so nice seeing a bunch of you again and a true pleasure meeting a lot of new reefers too, especially the guy in the white dress shirt, dark tan (super cutie) I can say that right! I'm not married! Although he could be. That I'm not sure. Anyway, You Calgary guys rock! I so love Calgary reefers, you guys sure know how to throw a party.

Also special thanks to stores & people for the awesome prizes. I won a KEWL expensive pump (thanks Albert @ Golds!) & a $50 gift certificate to Gold’s! (Thanks Rob @ Majestic Aquariums) WoOHOO! Hope I didn't take away to many of the cool prizes from you Calgarians. I know a bunch were dying with envy. I'm such an impostor hey! Can you believe I never won anything before this!

Special thanks to Tony for the awesome baggies of frags (pipe organ, mushrooms, zoo's, colt)! WOW WEEEE! I opened my baggies at home and was so amazed at how much you gave me! Your to generous Tony. *SUPERHUGS*

Also thanks to Bob, for the kewl brain & mushrooms. Although Bob wasn't able to make the meet, he was so kind to drop off before he left town. Thanks again Bob and thanks Jim for holding them for me. *HUGS*

Thanks to the many others too that I got amazing frags from. To many of you to name all. Frags are all looking awesome! Thanks a super bunch! *SUPERHUGS*

Hey before I forget, I do have a bunch of pictures too that I took. I'm at working now but will try to post them later this evening.


Cheers Calgary & B.C! Your awesome!




Thanks again everyone for welcoming an out of towner like myself! *HUGS*

Well we were aiming at meeting up with another reefer before heading out at Chinook mall but somehow I lead us (Snaggle behind me in his car) to the wrong end of town (WAY EAST, like out of town East) by missing the turn off.

The real adventure was getting back, finding the missed turn off and then after finally hitting my destination it was the adventure to leave Calgary going through the crowd of stampeders! But got to drive right in front of the amazing view of the stampede fireworks. OOhh...Ahhhh... very pretty and was the most perfect spot to see them to, going down the hill of Mcleod trail.


Yup, the adventure home was LONG, but thank gawd for Tim Horton's in Red Deer stop. Nothing like a wake up java for the rest of the highway drive. I have to thank Snaggle (Brad) for leading most of the way, keeping each other in check if one of us fell asleep behind the wheel. I was SoOoOo tired and know he was to. But We Both MADE IT HOME! WoOHOO! Brad was kind to send me an email to double check if I made it the rest of the way.

Boy, I can't tell a short stories, can I.
