It was great to meet with all of you tonight! Glen, don't eat all 7,600 grams of fat in one sitting!

gleff, you and DCkindaguy talked when I was standing next to you.
Last night was very fun! Hope to repeat it soon. Speaking of which.....
El Boocho mentioned a couple ideas in DC to me, and there was other talk of a gathering around Dulles Aug. 15. I wonder if, to be fair, the next one should be in DC, though.
-- live from BWI, standing by for an earlier flight for lunch with my sister.
If anyone is around BWI- D concourse, e-mail me. I'm confirmed at 2:30pm, trying to get on an 11:40 MSP= but it doesn't look good.

Joh and I had a great evening, meeting a lot of familiar faces and new ones too .. most of whom we got to say "hi" to. I think Viajero said there were 20-25 folks there over the evening (?) including many faces we had not seen for ages.
Including Debbie, AASweets who flew in from Wisconsin, and has kept her amazing record intact of having less FT posts than "Do's" she has attended.
Thanks especially to gleff for suggesting the terrific venue and for the ride in. And Going Away for the ride back. And someone there who prefers not to be named for our lovely Marriott Hotel room upgrade.
And johnep1 for Fedexing his Ent. Book across to us on loan so we could save some nice tourist bucks.
And to thezipper for bringing along Freddie Junior for his 10,000 mile trip to SYD on Saturday. And to gnagnet for coming out and meeting us at IAD and MileageAddict in advance for the ride to Dulles Saturday ... and 7 days allowance of local saturated fat in a gift can.
So .... who can load up those photos? Love to see them!

Viajero ... is it possible to compile a list of those who attended the "Do" (anything over 20 FT'ers is a Doooo
) ... A couple I met I have forgotten their FT names?

The outdoor deck was a big improvement over the original cramped tables they gave us. A few of us were still outside talking a half hour after they turned out the lights inside.
Nice blog, gleff. I had no idea that content was there.
