Let me offer a special thanks to Josh for getting the ball rolling three years ago, Dave and Maryanne for hosting it so well and coordinating so many aspects of the day and making everyone feel so welcome (it was absolutely enjoyable and I am so honored to call you friends), to Veez and Tim who provided great terrain in absentia (there will be one next year), to my first Crusader Andreas for traveling the farthest (I will give you a better game next time, with my own die- that story later), to Craig for traveling the second farthest and for bringing an awesome new player with him (welcome Dillon- remember the first fix is free), to the Steves (collectively) who make me guffaw like a little school girl till my sides hurt (Maplewood here I come), to John and Leslie (and Caleb) for bringing their A games (and brushes) and for their sound wisdom and advice, to Mark and Felicia (who is was so nice to see after so many years), to Jeff (who provided me with an absolutely exciting game of UWZ that nearly wiped out the scars of a much older battle that made me swear never to play him again), to my friend William for running his chariot game for the attendees and showing us how to play WoW minis (face it, anything that puts the Steves, Dave and I on the same side is AWESOME) (next time you must bring the wife), to Lance bringing his Imperial Juggernaut (I hope we have pics), to Kevin, Sean, William (I owe you a match on the 16th) and Hans it was great to see and fun to catch up with.
