:my_bad::clap::clap::clap::lurve::lurve:To all that attended in person, as well as those attending in spirit: That was a blast! I’m thrilled to have met so many really great people who are now friends. The Kon was a very special bonding experience and I’m so glad I was a part of it. I’ll admit it.....work stings a bit today. :facepalm:I wish I were still in Bangor. I have pictures but I am unable to upload them from my phone. I’ll post them this evening when I get home. Thanks everyone! :heart:

Wasn’t Robert Gray a sweetheart? (and Mrs. Robert Gray too)

Would love to come back for another King Kon in a couple of years - thanks to all the hosts and helpers who made this a memorable trip and a very special King Kon

Yes! I think Kevin is sick of me going on and on about how wonderful everyone was. They’ve extended an invitation for us to come back and spend a weekend, so we’re going to try to do that in the next couple of months. Plus, I owe Robert Gray my signed copy of Sleeping Beauties and I have to return a movie he lent me.

Was great to see you and everyone else who was able to make it here. Sorry to have to admit that I didn't take many pictures myself as I was too busy mingling. :smile:
You are an expert mingler! Thanks for all the organizing and effort you put in to make this a memorable experience.
I got a ton of pictures and a few really good ones of you, Ms. Mod! We missed Scott on the caravan. Neesy , you have to share the picture of us inside the public works building with the crazy guy who yelled at everybody. I was trying to explain to Stacy and Lori what on earth we were doing in there for so long, they were convinced we’d lost the plot!

Saturday's meet and greet

One of the reasons why I mingle instead of take pics, i.e. everyone is turned away from the camera. :facepalm_smiley: From left to right: Glenn Chadbourne, Robin Furth, Bev Vincent, and Gerald Winters

Probably a good thing, I did not get any pics from the dinner at Oriental Jade or breakfast at Dysart's. :smile:

It was. I'd asked Gerald if he could bring some copies especially for anyone who was coming from outside the US since the shipping costs almost as much as the book which is why a lot of people haven't ordered it. :(

Well that puts a damper on it. Thanks for letting me know. If I had only known I would have asked Neesy to pick it up for me.
