    I will be taking and posting pictures, like I did in Atlanta. They won't be nearly as good as Matt's will be, but at least you will be able to see a bit of what you are missing. I promise to do it.

    We'll be looking for your picks too Matt.

    John, I'd love to come, but not sure about my wife. She isn't as enthusiastic as I am.

    So here is the problem. We all always have great intentions of posting lots and lots of stuff while it is happening, including lots of pictures. Then we get there..............Our time is spent listening to the great talks by the speakers, catching up with what is going on with old friends, meeting and making new friends. Somewhere during all that we might find time to grab something to eat. Next thing you know it is midnight, we still haven't been back to our room all day and now it's time to get a drink and talk with new and old friends about discus. Next thing you know it is 3 AM and we had better get to sleep so we can be awake for the speaker the next morning. We probably found a little bit of time during that to snap a few pictures but we didn't find time to go back to the room and upload them over the hotel internet to our computers so we can post them. We REALLY intended to find the time but we didn't want to miss out on everything that was going on at the Show. So I will apologize in advance in case it doesn't happen. I do want you to hear and see what is happening at the Show because I want you to realize what you are missing so you make sure you don't let it happen again.
    Larry, maybe between everybody we'll get to see some pics. Or someone could compile the picks after the show and put them together. Thanks for the effort.

    There is no doubt that there will be a compilation of stuff after the Show. That will definitely happen. Always does. If you go to the NADA section here on the forum and look at the 2012 Show section you will see that quite a bit gets posted. Most of it gets posted after the Show though. Just being truthful about what happens during the Show. We get very caught up in all that is happening and simply don't find the extra time to post a whole lot.

    Extra time? That's only between 3-6 am ... And you have to give up sleep for it... Assuming you don't want to miss anything of course

    well, its kind of not advertised or listed.. who owns what.. due to judging.. you don't want bias..

    BUT.. loose lips, sink ships.. so word gets around in the little circles that huddle around the tanks at the show

    I am very happy to announce that Universal Rocks will be one of the vendors at our show. They are a family owned company that makes some unreal fake rocks, fake tree stumps, fake roots, and great backgrounds. Their products have several advantages over natural things and also outher peoples fakes. They can make almost anything. They will have lots of product at the show but here is their website is you want to do some shopping ahead of time. Be sure to tell them that NADA sent you.
