    I knew that I should have made a list! That makes 10 including Beau, plus 3 possible late arrivals from Norwalk after the setup.

    Still no word from the west coast.

    I am shutting down this computer and will be on the road until late afternoon. I will check messages again after my arrival in Milan. If you will be attending supper with us I'll see you in the Lobby of the Days Inn at 6:00.

    I have arrived at the Days Inn in Milan room 102.

    The desk knows that I will be having company in the lobby at 6:00.

    I just arrived at the All American Inn in Norwalk. If I don't make it to the hotel @ 6 what time are you planning on going to Maws Place? I saw it on the way by to my hotel.

    I guess 6:15 or 6:30 by the time everyone has gathered.

    Hey Invent-O-Doc,

    If you left from New Market this morning we have probably been playing tag for the last six hours!

    Granz,
    I'm in room 135 down by the pool. If I'm not in the room I'm probably in the pool or hot tub.

    I'm leaving around 6:30 to help OBC setup.

    Great dinner and chat guys.

    If anyone is interested I'm going back down for breakfast. They open @ 7am. I'll be there between 7:00 and 7:20.

    Jim,
    I'll be there around the same time.

    Why do I get the feeling that next year "Maw's" is going to have a UPENE sign with a red slash though it ??? Ha Ha Ha...

    Hey guys,

    I was glad to get to know all of you and thanks for the invite sailman58! I had a lot of fun, learned a lot and got a lot of encouragement. I had a great time and look forward to talking to all of you on the forums. I will definitly be back next year, thanks for making a new guy feel welcome.

    After talking to my friend Mike, it seems that all of us did a good job in getting his interest. I told him that I would take his new demo board and add some stuff to it so he could start playing around with writing code. I'm gonna add some hard wired leds and maybe some other stuff so he can get started with the basics.

    Thanks again everyone, glad to meet all of you!

    Glad to hear you had a good time. Also, that book I mentioned to Mike was the "Microcontroller Applications Cookbook" by Matt Gilliland.

    Also, I recommend a different venue next year. I'm not sure the food was safe at that place.

    It was great to get to talk to everyone and find out about a little about everybody at the round table, but I must agree... I was not nearly as impressed with the food this year as I was last year at Maw's Place (too bad). Since it was me that mentioned the place, I feel as though I should formally apologize. Next year we might try to look into something different.

    It was nice to get together with everybody again this year. I was not all that disappointed with the food, perhaps because I have to compare it with my own cooking. I can forgive a lot if I don't have to cook the food! I even went back for breakfast on Sunday. Beau, let me take some of the blame off of your shoulders.

    Hopefully, somebody will volunteer to coordinate Friday supper next year (do the folks at the other Prop Expos get together for Friday night supper?) and the choice will be theirs.

    If Prop Expo comes to Florida, I will coordinate one down there.
