It was important to be there and meet people I had never met...and re-meet people I had not seen in ages.... some, like bbc, since that 1999 picture.

EBarnacle & Lady Hillary were a delight... and the only time I had met wsiwyg/Susan and Greg was at a Mudgathering at their place when Dick & Susan were there. Max spoke eloquently, as did Susan of DT, who shared so many years with Dick making the Digital Tradition and amazing resource. Songs were sung in honor of Dick and stories I had never heard were told.
Because Dick & Susan had been regular attendees at the FSGW Getaway, a bunch of us from 'down South' made the trip.

   Such a brief few hours to absorb so many memories & thoughts...
