    I didn't know this was a common thing for you guys. Might have passed each other at some point... Our tables were just outside the south-ish entrance to the track.

    Oh well. Next year.

    This was my first Hamvention. But unless one of my friends dies or falls ill, which given their age is certainly within the realm of possiblity, I'll be there next year.

    It's a really scattered club you guys have. What brought them all together?

    I expect to be there next year too.

    BBSing and IRC, the usual culprits.

    Well, two of us in reddish shirts. I'm the thinner, younger one.

    See you there.
