Here ok I do have one of me taken today at the giftshop, see the key to taking pictures is simple just close your eyes and start clicking.http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t47/ahuxman58/Picture-127-1.jpg

[redvipe2010]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I'd have to say you were ready for that pic!!!!!! Not Fair!!!

Not to worry! We will get our own! <long evil laugh>

Dave says he know where you live! If he could just find Rockford!

Wow. Looks like I missed a good one. Those skimmers are unbeleivable. Thanks for posting the pics.

[newreefer2]

It was great meeting so many people from Rockford at the tour.
I mentioned to a couple of you that I sent an email last Monday indicating I would like to join your club. Can you tell me the most effective way to follow up?

Outstanding Photos.

Carl, it was nice meeting you yesterday!

Here is a link to our Club. I don't think there is anything planned yet for the summer months. http://www.rockfordreefers.org/index.shtml

You won't want to miss Oceans Floor in July. http://www.oceansfloor.net/

See you at IMAC!

Carl
you might try sending a PM to RobTop here on RC. Im sure he will get back and get you on the mailing list.

[newreefer2]

Thanks for the advice. I will PM him tonight. Your members do a nice job of not making inexperienced reefers feel dumb. I am really looking forward to the workshops at IMAC.
