Glad you found us! I wasn't aware you just happened across us, I would have said hello. Alas, bargain pasta called my name.

It was good to meet you last night. It's nice to know that happy accidents still occur. If you believe in accidents.

I was looking over some of your shots on flickr, you've got a real good eye for photo composition. Your perspective and framing are excellent, very professional. You also have a knack for good black and white shots, and that's a bit of a dying art. Photo is a tough field, I minored in it when I got my design degree and did a lot of freelance early on. Although my passion for photo isn't what it used to be, I can still recognize a talent when I see it. Nice work!

Great meeting all of you. Thank you Sabre for giving my WRX an inferiority complex. Oh and I need some DCAWD stickers too. Thats a boost of 10 horsepower right there. Oh and Ben I was this close to "borrowing" your STI. Well great time and I look forward to the next meet.

Thanks for the kind words (is that Julian?) and I can give you a few more photos from last night for the gallery.

Another great meet, is in the can. Thanks to all the n00bs who showed up. It's always good to meet people at meets as opposed to just hanging around the same people over and over again.

Actually, it's Darrin, the guy with the silver wagon. We talked a bit about photo and design. Hope to see you at the next meet.

My Celica is slower. She's probably a bit more nimble now that's she's lost 70 pounds (thanks to RJ). But, she's an old gray mare and I'll soon be putting her out to pasture. :(
