just like everyone else....im tired, and certainly my wallet is exhausted!!!...i ended up spending $100 above my budget....grrrr...it was great meeting everyone (i had no clue there was that many reefdorks...lol...just kiddin)
 
it was fun...until not long after I got there I realized I locked my keys in my car. Then I had to spend what seemed like an hour givin' directions to have my spare key delivered...(yea I was the guy who looked loss and was always on the phone the whole time.... :lol: ) Finally got it taken care of. Only bought frags from Jack (crumbletop) and they are awesome. Thanks for the deal Jack. I had bought a couple when another guy was runnin' his table (forgot his name). I cant remember the exact names but I ended up with a couple cali torts, red digi, purple digi, and a evil mel green milli. Again, I think thats what they was. They look good. Wished I could have got more involved.

Thanks rcmike for the tank and stand. I'm gonna start workin' on that stand here in a bit.

Thanks to wayne for bringin' the powerheads and the 5.5 tank. If y'all noticed the 5.5 by the raffle ticket sale table. Wayne brought that for me. It's suppose to be for my tarantula.....but I don't know now.

Nice frag swap and lookin' forward to next year.

Thanks gsusfreak. I'm extremely happy with the way it turned out. I didn't know I would have so many AoG frags to bring. This was easily the best swap I've ever been. Everyone I traded with was absolutely great.

Can't wait til next year, LMAS will definitely have a table again :)
 
Went saying I wasn't buying ANYTHING this year and really meant it....I only had $4 when I walked in but sold about $30 worth of stuff so justified spending that much.


Then the bright idea hit me to ask one of my pals with nice stuff to just paypal them the $$ so its pretty much like I swipped my credit card! :lol: :rolleyes:

The door prizes and raffle tickets were awsome also! Thanks so much for all the nice donations to all who donated!!

The funniest part of the entire swap for me, was Jack announcing that LMAS was giving away free frags. I was standing there, with a hot dog in hand, knowing there was no way I could get to the other end of the building in time....I was right. :lol:
 
I about got trampled when he announced that. I was in the aisle digging corals out of the tank and here comes a herd of people after "FREE FRAGS!!!!!!"" those were the only words gflat and I heard.
 
The AoG's are great from btkrausen... I actually pulled my bag out after a 3 hr drive and had 2 polyps open in the bag!!! lol
And to fishdoc... I got the PPE at the very end from you and it opened up minutes after being in the tank!
 
i forgot to mention, a huge thanks to Wayne's girls and the kitchen crew!!!.....im super thankful that i didnt have to leave in that deathly cold weather to get lunch
 
Wayne's idea of food (and providing it) at the swap is a great one:D
Especially for people like me that get grumpy when they are hungry:lol:

Glad the PPE's are happy:D
 
It was GREAT meeting everyone again and some new folks who I've haven't met before. I had a bit of cold and try to keep up with everything....The food from Wayne and the girls were GREAT!!! So far everything I've got from everyone have open up pretty good, got a few repeat corals, oh well....lol.....Still acclimating my clam and super large serpent star.....I won't be going to bed til late tonight...lol....Thanks again to all the people who I got corals from, everything is looking very nice, a few very nice pieces, look even better in my tank then in the pictures..... :)
 
THANK YOU to Jack, Chris, Wayne and everyone else who produced a memorable event. Four hours went by in a flash. Enjoyed Dr. Shimek. Got some great corals. Felt the enthusiasm!
The organizing effort was evident and effective. THANKS!
