Taking a moment to be real, here: This has been a truly special time for me:. Alla yall have gone above and beyond to make this time together, amazing in all regards. Those of us that were already friends, our friendships have deepened and strengthened; and those of us who just met have become fast friends already. The genuine love that was shown to one and all was moving and poignant. The fun was a delightful celebration of all that it is to be truly alive and free. I will treasure this experience for my entire life.
On a personal level. BuckeyeTexan and onyx, i could not have asked for more wonderful and sweetnatured, considerate cabin mates. Eaks, Buckeye, thanks for allowing me to shoot your sweet pieces, and Bacon Man, thanks for making me go wahhhhh!. Themom, penelopesire, and anyone i missed, thanks for keeping us well fed with amazing cuisine! Buckeye Texan, thanks for making it possible, and TheOldLady, thanks for your help in making the travel arrangements, and the candles. NYTexan; thanks for your hospitality in opening your home. Humblegunner, thanks for having my back when we nearly had to beat the restaurant owner to a bleeding pile of fly covered flesh and broken bones. JimRob, thanks for bringing us all together in the first place. And of course, to all of the Freeper Foxes, thanks for letting me hit it with you. I will never stop smiling now. ;)
Truly, i have been blessed to know you before; now, i am honored and humbled to call you friends.
Stay safe, and may we be guided together next year every last one of us.

To my roomies, Laz and Buckeye Tex, I will forever treasure our special time together. We're sealed solid together forever.
I already knew and loved my sweet Pen and Jim in person, but who expected me to come away from this most special event really and truly liking humblegunner, a whole lot aside from darling TOL? LOL.
Thank you, TheMom for all your sumptious , delicious food, your hard work and for taking us to meet your most gracious mom at her most beautiful spread (home). Your old man's not bad either! Such an entertaining and informative story teller. Laughed till my sides hurt.
I enjoyed meeting y'all and love every one of you.

My memory for names is rotten, but not for faces and sweet memories of wonderful times. Remind me, PLEASE.
