Would have been better if prdlm2009 was able to come. Perhaps next meetup you will have some spare time and not have such a busy sched.

The biggest downside will be driving from the airport.  The cheapest one is 2 and a half hour drive.  Very easy drive though.  The next more expensive is an hour drive, with the most expensive being 10 minutes.  But that would be for another thread.

No group picture?

We totally forgot to so a group picture, but I think some people in SF may have taken some pics during the call.

I hope you will accept this picture of myself, CBA, and exitfire as consolation.

Dannnnng! I wish I could be there. I can't wait to meet you guys (+Hoff again) at Chicago!

That's more turnout than it seemed like from the photos.  And to such a far-fetched location!

I didn't know I had fans.  Thanks.  I'm try to make them, but pre-existing commitments for this one/lack of will for others.

Exactly!  I was worried that being so much further north than Chicago, and even Milwaukee, would discourage a lot of people, but I was very pleased with the turnout.  :)  Thanks again for making the long trek, everyone!

Sure did! A couple people weren't fans of the fruity flavor, but overall we all enjoyed it.  ;)

Thought it was pretty decent. My 2nd time having it. Liked it better this time than last, but I've also developed more of a taste for fruity beers in the last year.

captain, you're looking thinner!

Sow that you say it, I definitely see it.

I think I have that same shirt, now that I look at the picture again.

It's a really nice shirt.

Sorry! I should have contacted you.  :(  for some reason, I assumed you wouldn't be interested.
