TFCTFN a Success

Great seeing a bunch of old friends.
All my bitchin' for food paid off as we had more than enough for twice as many guys.

I'd like to thank everyone who came, everyone who brought food and everyone who donated items for the raffle table.

Ricky did his normal great job with the chef duties and Guppy and I managed to help him just enough without getting in the way.

Thanks to everyone.

No boat, back in the suds.

I had a great time. A little sleepy by the time that I got back to Waltham.

Somebody must have some pix.

Great time and good to see some old timers come out of their shell (haha clammer pen intented), who was in his usual rare form. Goose even made an appearance, nice to see some old friends and have some laughs.

Sucks we had to miss it. My flight was delayed two and a half hours and didn't get home until after 9. Sounds like it was a good time.

Yes, good to see folks. Just too little time to have enough time with everyone. Had to bail early to drive through the downpour... Who won the grand prizes?

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

Billy D (pbadad) and I came together and enjoyed it.

I liked the video presentation.

Food and desserts were better than good.

Nice to see some young kids have a great time.

Raffle was tremendous.

Next year a microphone so John can get out the numbers easier.

It was my first TFCTFN party and I loved it. It was so nice to put some faces on those logon names.

Food was delish, hard to pick a favorite as all was so good but the Fish Chowder was awesome.

Nice to me the man at the "Helm".... and nice slide show. I'll second the motion for the power microphone for next years raffle announcing.

I had been talking to Cohen for quite a while regarding Tuna fishing, which I have never done and was kinda getting goose bumps just listening to the stories from him and Andy (Tysdad) and when they announced my number for the grand prize Tuna Charters.... well.... if it looked like I was a little excited.... your eye sight is perfect.

Really looking forward to that outing with Cohen.

Thanks for everyone who made this happen and I already have it penciled in for next year.
