Hi Patrick,

You're right!  We should.  We have had gatherings at B.D.'s, but I was
unable to attend the last one due to familial obligations...I was hoping
to host one in the Spring...hopefully, my construction will be done by
then... It would be a daytime event/barbecue/run naked through the
daisies, pin the tail on the donkey, Leica fashion contest...etc.  Just
kidding, we have no daisies in the field ;-)

Austin
