Thread: Only 6 months till the SE GATHERING!!!!!!

Can we get names to go with the faces, for those of us that weren't in attendance?

I am going to be working on photos this week, I have lots of hone and razor porn and a few crowd shots.

I'll post when I have them up!

I had a great time, everybody was like meeting old friends. It was all very informal, with people drifting in and out of the various meeting rooms where workshops were going on, and back to the lounge room where people were just hanging out and talking.

Doc was a great host, and Jim from Vintage blades and Will from Classic Shaving provided VERY generous raffle prizes, and were great to hang out with. Thank you!

Tim Zowada and Butch Harner were incredibly nice and willing to share their knowledge, and allow people to paw over their razors. Charles "spazola" Lewis also brought some really stunning and creative razors he'd done. I'm going to own one of his cool Japanese-style razors, soon. I'm looking forward to seeing some of sicboater's pictures, he had a great setup to take pictures of various members' and makers' gear.

Meeting other members was a pleasure. Sebell came all the way from Calgary to be there! D. M. Ellington has been at this for 30 years, and was great to talk to and learn from, and hear old railroad stories from. And I finally figured out that Coully knows so much about Scottish hones because he's a Scotsman (I'm a little slow sometimes, and didn't pick up on that from his posts - they're missing the cool accent and the kilt).

I was never bored, tired of seeing stuff, tired of showing stuff, or tired of asking Tim Zowada questions the whole time. If you can make one of these get togethers, please do, they're fun. Thank you all who attended, and were so nice and helpful.

Everything Tim said goes double for me. Would like to say a Special Thanks to Doc and his Mrs. for all the work they put into making this meeting so special.

Also another special thanks to Charlie Lewis for pining my Wonderedge and
the honing lesson.

I have never met a nicer group of folks - five minutes after you are there you feel as you have known everyone all your life.

Everyone was very helpful and more than willing to share their knowledge.

Thank You Everyone!!

Looks like a great time. Maybe next year I can make it. I wanted to this year but my job would'ne let me.

Sounds like it was a blast. Too bad it was on the other side of a very long swim. I really would have liked to experience BBQ 'Doc style'

+1 on that. I'm going to have to "accidentally" book a holiday to coincide with next years meet...!

I'm home, and finally recovered from the drive... I wanted to thank everyone for all the work they put in to the get-together.

It was a great weekend. I enjoyed getting the opportunity to meet everyone there. Now, I have faces to put with the names and aliases.

I look forward to next year. That is, if you guys are willing to put up with my rambling again...

Next year we do Vegas Baby!!!!!!!!

Have fun!!!!
