Never attended anything like this before, but seriously thinking of booking - for my first time.
You folks have sure painted it as a super fun time, and I'm sure it is.
Would dearly love to meet all of you friendly, familiar names, & get to know you better !

[John_Nicholson]

I highly recommend making the show if at all possible. I do not have the words to really describe everything about a show. Its not just the show fish, its not just the speakers, its not just the chance to leave the house, it is the chance to talk fish, the chances to buy some out of this world fish, the chance to meet new friends that you will cherish for life. It really is the old and new friendships that make it such a great time.

Thanks for the encouragement folks - I do believe I'd have a wonderful time, and would love to put faces to the so many of you familiar names. That would be the height of it all for me !
My only hang-up is my health, which is not getting any better as age marches on - not complaining, nor looking for sympathy, just stating facts.
We'll see what the new year brings - meantime I just might take the chance & book flights & hotel.
Sounds like a real hoot!

Hey Skip, thanks for the positive comment.

While I need double hip replacement surgery at some point in time down the road, I do get by now, and could also get by in Chicago without a scooter, as long as didn't stray away from the hotel, and remembered to take anti-inflammatories & pain-killers if I did a lot of walking.

I wish that were my only problem, but unfortunately I also have a respiratory issue (early stage COPD) and another ailment which at times preclude me from enjoying a normal life.

Having said that, if I feel as good next year as I do just now, then I think everything would be just fine.
I just keep smiling & hope for the best.

P.S. No - I don't need to carry any oxygen around - not yet anyway.
