    I think John that it was actually decided last night that this is a real group.Keiths the one that has kept it alive, most get togethers were only 4-5 people at best with the D-for discus being substituted for "drinking".But this summer had a little bigger group at Jeffs,and this time 14 people at Keiths.Actually did more fish club things,had a group buy of Al's fdbw,some fish trading and selling,and Brandon gave a presentation on how to ship fish.
    So what I geuss Im saying is baby steps.

    Bill I'd say all 4 of the "founding members" kept the group alive, but I'll take credit for taking the attendance up a notch with the new Madison contingent this time around. Thanks Dawn, Ben, Jim, and Grace for gracing us with your presence...and for working with Brandon. Thanks to you Bill for hauling the mafia up here, and thanks to all the new folks that came by. It was an awesome afternoon/evening.

    Well the NADA show in Dallas was mainly just JIm, Jerry, and myself. The one in Austin will probably just hve a core of 4 or 5. You always have other people to help but the core does not have to be very large. I hope to see all of ya'll down here in June. We can talk about what it takes and give you some behind the scene stuff...LOL.

    The mafia is ready to roll when the next meet is called... lol... We look forward to help this group advance to the next step. Make it fun and learn/share with everyone... Perhaps ultimately one day we are able to bring in NADA to Chicago.

    As you all know I was trying to clear out a few unnecessary things, well that didn't seem to work out to well. It appears my stock of plastic airstones grew, I see a couple "new" buckets sitting around, and there are a couple strange lids here now too. Add to that that I bought another heater from Brandon and net net I probably added to my inventory.

    Ben & I had a great time with you all yesterday...really friendly group. I'm sure I can learn a lot from all of you!

    The fish we brought back from Brandon are gorgeous! They have settled into their temporary tank & doing well.

    Thanks for hosting Keith & inviting us to join you. Thanks for the fish Brandon. Thanks for the bucket Bill...you saved me from my lack of planning.

    Looking forward to a "next time"!

    Hey I just wanted to add that big thanks to Cozy for allowing us to intrude and for his instructions that corrected googles instructions which lead me to the boomies. I am looking forward to the next meeting. Bill thanks for the fish! Brandon thanks for the invite, you are a good guy by my estimation. I think much will be shared and a lot of knowledge will be gained at future meetings. I am glad to be apart of it.

    Congratulations on your first post Dawn, told you you could do it! After being a member for 2 months I think you were a little overdue. Anxiously looking forward to your second post, hope I don't have to wait another 2 months.
