Lonnie,
If you read through the three posts that I made in reference to the trip, you will find that I have already answered that question BUT for those of you who borrow my equipment I will answer it again.
Rick said that he will probably have some frags for sale. He did remind me that he is more or less in the process of getting his coral farming operation started so the pickings may be slim. Bring a bunch of extra money with you though ..... I may need to borrow some!

Well those of us who went are back. Chelsy, Lonnie & Rich came home with some new frags. Ricks place was interesting indeed. Talk about water volume!! He also had some really nicely home made skimmer's. Rich was a nice host and was happy to answer any and all questions and give his opinions. I wish him only the best at succeeding in his goals.
The B-Q at Henry's.
I thought this was going to be a frag swap, However I didn't see any frags. Although Henry's 325 Gallon set up was exceptionally top notch if I don't say so my self. I thought chadfamer was going to pass out when he viewed Henry's equipment room! And Henry was too a wonderful host. They also had a DIY project on how to build a Caulk reactor, where they built one from scratch step by step. And they are going to post a thread in Cima as how and where to buy the supplies needed. All in all it was worth the trip IMO. Not to mention I enjoyed hanging out with the Slash members, Greg, Steve, Chelsy, ChadFarmer & Steves female friend (Not sure if there a couple forgot to ask) Melinda (Hope thats how she spells it).

The good stuff now
The good stuff now
I'm sure it appeared a bit odd to see 4 guy's cruising down the Freeway in a Beetle Bug!! Not to mention that I'm not sure who was touching who in the back seat. Between Greg & Rich it was like having 2 kids back there, All I heard was "Would you stop touching me! No you stop touching me! I got to go Pee. Are we their yet?? I can't feel my legs, I can feel my butt, and Rich keeps touching me! And then theirs Lonnie in the front seat winning, I can't feel my hip's and my knee's are touching my cheek's(don't ask) this car's way to small and who keep's passing gas!:eek2: :lol:
I needed ear plugs
Then when we left from Rick's house our navigator (Rich) got us lost. We had to stop to find out where we were, and then Rich & Greg ran off into the corn fields (again don't ask). So not only are we lost we lost 2 of the member's doing God only knows what DEEP in the corn fields. So we had to attempt to find them which we sent LONNIE in after them. He is scary enough looking we figured nothing would happen to him. Finally he emerges out of the corn field with Greg & Rich at toe, But buy this time the rest of us were fighting over where we were at. Poor Kathy at this point was about ready to start Killing people. And we were deep out in corn fields, no one would had heard us scream for help or ever find our body's. And then suddenly Steve freaks out and starts driving around circling the bug, So I made a braising decision to just go to the nearest farm house and ask for directions to the nearest interstate before Kathy disposed of our body's. Poor Chadfamer sat in Chelsy's car trembling like a 4 year old child (at one point I think I seen his eye's water up). After 3 farm houses we came upon one where some one was there (just in time to, I think Kathy was about to draw blood) and he showed us the way out.
When we left Henry's house Chelsy pulled for a vote to just leave Rich there...........I wonder how he plan's on getting home?? I sure hope someone helps him out.

All the way home Stupid kept repeating that he had to get home to his Bong.
I thought that meant that he was married to someone from the far east and that he REALLY missed his wife, Bong.
After reading his comments about the trip I now realize that I may have been a little mistaken!
