the old club i was involved with should learn from you guys/gurls.
apparently they need several thousand and need to nominate committees, chairmen, etc just to orangize a simple frag swap.

so yes yes ! im very jealous hehe

seriously, its just nice to see a group get together and share not only corals but more importantly have fun getting drunk with each other. j/k but apparently it seems having the beer keg at this swap is just as important as a rare frag ! hehe

cheers to everyone for doing it right!

Hey, you should attend! You don't need thousands and a committee to do a swap. If everyone knew how much effort I really put into these things, they'd all be doing it.

It really takes very little on my part, and the generous people that attend contribute more than I could ever ask for.

Yes, it's not a club event at all, everyone is invited. I don't know about being a cool guy though. Thanks for the plug.

It's still standing. Part of the tarp came off, so sure it could use a bit of a touch up. Are you offering to stop by and help me consume some Heinies?

Greg- Do you still want a branch (or two or three or?) of that Hammer? I have a wierd piece of Frogspawn I want to move out too- only a couple heads but it gets pretty big.

Hammer - sure, does it look like my old hammer?

Frogspawn - mine survived, but since it's wierd, sure, I'll take it.

I'm really glad that you'll be able to make it. Looking forward to chatting with you again.

I'm looking forward to it

The branching Hammer isn't the same as yours- it's the one in the background of this pic.. Over the years that coral has branched so many times... it's really healthy and hardy- and nice and bright too. There's a piece with 4 or 5 heads- I'll bring that and you can take the whole thing or share it with others if you want. The whole thing is only about 5" wide- the heads on this aren't huge.
Greg

for example purposes, pics from my last crop (1/2006)of green sinularia finger leather frags here
http://community.webshots.com/album/536256188DHqpCF

I'll make the crop of frags for Gho's swap in next few days so they have time to attach.

first come, first served at swap.

a few misc recent shots at http://community.webshots.com/album/549714352BjKyUb

Anyone who takes the time and effort to organize something like this for a bounch of strangers is a cool guy in my book.

I dont know if I'll make it, I may be in FL for work but if I do I'll bring some egg rolls.

GHO -- it seems So Cal Shaggy has volunteered his BBQ meatballs! Is there anything else that is requested? Besides our bodies and empty stomachs of course.

So Cal Guppy · #**125** 05/05/2006, 11:13 PM
