One of mine as well and ROSfest was no exception -- even if you were there again.

The waitresses love him, although he has an unnatural fascination with jalapenos Chris is responsible for keeping many vendors afloat with his open wallet...it was great to finally meet you.
He actually left a piece and a half of his french toast on Monday morn!

I was worried about not getting any free time but, fortunately, the Jesters Pub tables came with a side order of 115Vac outlets. My son wasn't really an "official" photographer but George gave him the "all access" because he sees him at all the shows.

I was doing OK until Pallas. I was running down from the balcony on the stairs when somebody called out to me. I turned on the stair and managed to pull a muscle in my calf. "The Watch" pictures are all from the lower level for the most part because of that.

You or Teer mentioned that. M opened and used one of the bottles but we were never charged for it.
