Today I arrived back in the Netherlands. I'm looking back on a wonderful trip and a great convention. You'll have to wait a bit longer for the pictures though since my camera is the oldfashioned type with films.

I want to thank Steve (Toggleswitch) and Peter (Peteski50) for their hospitality during my stay in NYC. Our webmaster Robert for hosting me in Minneapolis and letting me drive with him. Also Robert, Eddy and Jon for the fun we had. I really enjoyed being with you guys.

Ofcourse a special thank you to Greg for hosting the convention and also to Terry for all the organizing he did. Really impressive! It sure was a awesome convention.

And to all the others who were there I just want to say that it was wonderful meeting you guys, it was a pleasure to do this convention with you.

Thanks again y'all!!

Louis

Long trip!

Wow, you really have a long trip! I've been home for days already!

Glad to know you made it back safely. I am looking forward to the next time we can all get together. I would say Convention 2005 was a big huge success! The old homepage looks a bit bare without the convention banner. Is it too early to start planning for '06?

I'd even be happy with a regional wash-in (on my lanai?)

Best Wishes 'til we meet again!
David

Woohoo! Glad you're back home safe & sound; I've been hearing reports of bad weather up in Minnesota lately.

Can't wait to see the pictures, and it was great meeting you at the Convention! And I'm with David--Convention 2005 was a HUGE success!! I wonder where the next one will be...

It was great to see old friends and new people. There's never much time to have one-on-one visitation, what with all the machines and activities and photo opportunites to 'scope out.

Luigi, I'm glad you're home safe & sound, been waiting for your "I'm home" declaration.

It was so good to see you again--AS WELL AS EVERYONE ELSE and meeting new friends. Bob

P.S., I love the "y'all". Looks like the Texas contingent had an influence on you. Aww shucks sir!!

I'm glad all y'all made it home safely! It was such a pleasure to meet and talk with you! I especially liked your laundry folding *magic trick*! I showed the family and received thunderous applause!

Thanks y'all...

..for the lovely messages. My trip home was rather smooth although in Frankfurt I was sent back and forth between gates. Fortunately they weren't far apart. And I was able to find my car back in the huge parking lot at the airport. I was glad to find my bed and slept 11 hours!

Take care,

Louis
