I'm sure there will be further S3 gatherings in the future . We didn't set out to hog the spotlight hosting one here . It will have to be a group decision to determine when and where the next one is held .MoonBreath wrote:Hey butch, any talk of doin it up again next year?

My wife and I would like to extend our thanks to all who attended . A better group could not be found anywhere . All who came pitched in to help and share . I have family who I would be less inclined to have back than any of these folks . Bonds are made when screen names on a computer become real people with faces and firm handshakes .
