Thank you all so so much for the pictures. Must be something wrong with me because I actually got a bit teary eyed when I read the letter from Andy to Red... I just loved each and every picture. My favourite film of all time and you guys have given me a different view of it, for which I thank you so much. :love:

Hey mustangclaire - I see you have been busy with getting a new American car imported to England - wow! You would fit right in here in Winnipeg. Every Sunday they have the Sunday Night Cruise down Main Street and Portage Avenue and there are many classic car buffs in the area.

I am glad to see you back with us :thumbs_up:, as I was wondering what had become of you! :wink2::tickled_pink:

Isn't it great that Tracy left a little spot on the extreme right blank (just enough space for kingzeppelin to insert my "ghostly" image later on). It must have been meant to be, as usually she is such a meticulously skilled photographer so this is just a weird Ka-incidence that it worked out great in the end!
I already miss being there :sorrow:and look forward to the next King Kon! :star::love::cheerful:

View attachment 3852 ...the crew after our dinner last night, that's Neesy in the Kon shirt up front...what a hoot, she's good people....
Thanks Scott - me with my "pumpkin bag" and pumpkin coloured (Kon) shirt! Andy was having a "smoke break" and I do not see Tommy in there (fushingfeef's wife) but she was probably at the car. I love looking at these pics, as already I am starting to feel sentimental about this trip!
(Ya dun good, kid! two thumbs up on your organizational skills! :thumbs_up::thumbs_up:)

Here are some photos from the Saturday afternoon of the Kon. I spent time with my wife and kids, when it was raining on and off. We missed the gardens but the kids had a great time on the carousel and a nearby park and bookstore.

Hi there fushingfeef (Bob) - I just noticed that in picture five (the one of the books for sale at Main Street Books) you have a picture of my copy of 11/22/63! That's right! We went there on the Monday following the King Kon to do the tourist thingy and Andy bought me this book as I did not own a copy of it yet.
Say hi to Tommy, Jillian and Addie for me :love::biglove::byebye:

Hello Everyone!

I had a great time in Ohio...Scott did an awesome job putting it together. I knew he would! It was such a great weekend. I enjoyed meeting everyone that was there. Good people, every one. I especially enjoyed spending time with Scott, Tracy, and Nate again. Waiting two years to see them again will be hard!
I want to thank everyone that was there for making my niece, Rissa, feel so welcome and comfy. She had a great time. She told me many times how nice everyone was. :) Maybe I can get her to join the MB now.

Save your pennies, People!!! The Kon in Maine and the Kon in Ohio are among the best experiences of my life. Amazing memories....ALL of you should get a chance to go to one of these! I guarantee you will love it!
Hi Debbie913 - yes, your niece Clarissa is a sweet girl :angel: and I definitely see a resemblance there to the infamous Taylor Swift (Rissa just seems nicer haha).
I look forward to seeing you again in Colorado! Take care :cheerful:

Neesy - thanks so much for sharing. Loved your pictures and your stories! I'm so glad to see you back here and really, really wish I could have been there. Mayhap someday we'll share a meal and palaver.
Yes! - plan ahead for the next one! (it would be so wonderful to meet you in person) :smile: We could have more fun than a barrel of monkeys :monkey:

Orbs are "spots" seen within a photo that was not visible by the naked eye. They can come in colors too.

I did see many orbs in the other's photos, but they went on a different day than Andy and I. I believe in this paranormal stuff, actually and I definitely heard the voice of the small child on Scott's recording :ghost::O_O:
