this years convention, all I can say is make it a point to absolutely go next year. I went with the hopes of adding to my collection and renewing old acquaintances and making new ones (Jill Bitner, in particular…did that sound right?? ). Due to work commitments and other demands, I almost didn’t make it…but am I glad that I did!! This convention reminded me of what a wonderful group of people we are lucky enough to associate with in this hobby…from the webmaster of this board (who has the most infectious smile and a bunch of funny stories) to each and every one of the wonderful volunteers. What a wonderful experience…

This was my third convention and the best one yet…I can’t wait until next year’s and I hope that WE ALL can make it there!! Steve B (“gimmechips”)
