Deb, would you rename the Capital Do Brewing Do link you have for me in post # 2 to "Capital Do". Thanks!

I added FT people photos from IAD, Hillwood, Zenga, Breast Cancer Walk, Sunday Brunch and Udvar-Hazy Air & Space Museum to that link, so it's more inclusive of the weekend.

The other links to IAD, HW, ZG, BCW, UH, etc, are all the photos taken at those venues. Capital Do focuses on FTers.

Cheers.

Ok, uploaded the Breast Cancer Walk:

http://public.fotki.com/SkiAdcock/fl...ast-cancer-wa/

I'm doing a bit of up in the air arithmatic, but I think FTers raised about $4,650 total (give or take my bad math). Go Team FT!! Woo-hoo!

BTW - not that I'm above begging or anything on behalf of Team FT/United Team Dulles/Network of Strength, but donations are counted up until June 18th. So if any of you want to add your $5/10/20, you can still do so. Just PM us walkers & we'll give you the link.

Cheers.

Great photos everyone! I would also encourage everyone to do what I just did - which is the slideshow on everyone's links (blonde moment - who knew all the sites had it!). Doesn't take long - and fab up closes.

What was also cool is that many of us were at the same events yet took different pictures/angles/etc.

Cheers.

We also saw different things ... my group missed the baggage claim other than to walk thru the area. It's interesting to see the other pictures to see what else was shown

Well, that explains why you all were waiting for Group 3 when we finally got back. We got the full-on tour

BTW - after seeing that, my respect for baggage handling has gone way up.

Cheers.

The baggage claim area I saw in ORD was amazingly complex, very cool to watch in action. Sorry I missed seeing how its handled at Dulles, although Bill pointed out the construction they're planning soon in that same space.

For anyone with pictures from the IAD Tour (and there were a lot of us), I'm trying to collect whatever you have. UA has asked for copies of the pictures showing us with them, but we are also (thanks to unhBuzzard) looking to put together a collage of pictures as part of a thank you note that will be sent to all the people who met with us throughout the day. So if you have anything, please email them to the [email protected] address or burn a CD to send over. Thanks!!

You're kidding right re: me? Check the various links & let me know which images you want, and I'll sort it out.

Cheers.

I am soooooooo jealous of you guys, I wanted to see all of that. Seeing baggage claim would have been so major cool! Hopefully I will get to see that on another DO trip, or maybe from CO in IAH on the SMDO II in November?

I thought your pics looked fine!

BTW - I didn't realize that one of the other groups got to go into the cargo hold - how cool.

Cheers.
