I didn't pick anything up but I did some running and had interesting conversation.  I look forward to the January auction.

Didn't get out of the auction hall until right around 8 o'clock. The last hour and a half or so was insane. Hard to explain..., thanks everyone for their help!
Damn Chuck,  I thought about heading over after work (4pm)  Now I wish I would've.

Jeff,  sorry I wasn't able to make it,  as I'm sure together WE could've turned the tables & been the "posterior "pains.

Jim, you just suck...  I'm glad you made it down,  but it would've been nice if it was an auction that I could've attended.

A big thank you to everybody who was texting & calling me to tell me things of interest.
I would have missed ya there anyway Blair, my cousin and I took off about 3:50 anyway. Im sure Iwill be making another one tho, that was pretty cool. Tons of stuff...

 Thought the auction went great. Have only been to a couple of others but i was really impressed in the amount of goods avail. Didn't get to really meet anyone again, recognized you Marty , tony, Jeff. Maybe i'll speak up at the next aution. The wife and i were on limited time.
 Scored a nice quad of Blueberry peacocks, 2 really beautiful Platinum angels for the wife's angel tank, and the random female peacock.

 It was the wife's first auction and looks like we'll be heading to the MCA one that is upcoming.
 ;D

I scored Huge on tanks and My son loved it. Thanks to Tony for pushing things thru, and to all the runners. I will be "running" next time for sure, as I feel its my duty as a memeber.

It was great meeting a lot of the new people that I didnt meet yet, and it was a great day.

Now after loading and un loading all the stuff I bought my back, neck and shoulder  are not is the best shape, they were in bad shape before but I over did it and now I have to pay the price.

Thanks to Marty for hooking me up on the mystery box, it made My son Logan happy because he didn't know what was in it :)

Jeff Hope your back feels better, Tony you need a power scooter for only one Red cent LOL(tv commercial)

Wish I could have stayed to the end but when you have to call a family member with a van to help with transporting  your purchases time isnt on your side LOL.

All in all it was a great time and thanks to everyone I didn't mention who was so kind and friendly to my son and made him feel right at home. He even tried his luck at bidding when I was outside making a phone call, and Tony was right there to help so Thanks for that It made his day.

You're always claiming to be busy though.  I don't think you'll have enough time for us to wait for it to get waterlogged if I tie it to you.   ;D

Do you really want to go there with me :o ?  I am pretty evil, and I do have a LOT of time on my hands to think up evil things while driving around all day.   :)

Jeff

I sent you pictures of said wood and you said that you wanted those pieces. I can toss you a few more piece's that I have that are a little bigger that I was going to use in my tank if it would make it better. I dont want to be know as the guy who mislead someone, even thought I was up frt and showed you first. You are a great guy and I dont want to be on your bad side.
