Atlanta Gathering Pics
We had a great time last night! It was great to see old friends again, and to put a face to names I've known on DU for a long time. Mike and Kathy were able to come by for a quick visit (thanks, guys!). We remembered Kef and toasted the health of DU.


Tom Yossarian Joad, burythehatchet and the inestimable CatWoman.


CatWoman, Modem Butterfly's SO Will, Modem Butterfly herself, RubyDuby in GA, and Brian from the Democracy for America blog.


burythehatchet and Lurking_Argyle.


Tom Yossarian Joad toasts Skinner and DU.


MGKrebs, a friend from DFA and Casper.


Modem, RubyDuby, and Brian.


CatWoman and Will.


CottonBear and her husband, in from Athens.


CottonBear, Lurking_Argyle (told you I'd remember the underscore, man :) ) and Tom Yossarian Joad.

:thumbsup:

18. One of these days
I'm flying back to Alabama sometime in the next two months, I'll see if I can arrange a long, multi-hour layover in Hotlanta. Would that suffice for now?

12. Hey --I'm in So Cal...that sounds like fun
If it is half the fun that the DUers in these pics are having, it should be a good time!!

I tend to miss them for a variety of frustrating reasons, but it's about time for another one.

9. Good morning ulysses!
It was so nice to meet all of you last evening. We had a good time talking to everyone. Hopefully, we can do this again sometime. I do wish we had gotten there in time to meet Mike Malloy. Maybe next time.

17. Sorry I missed it.
I wish that there could be some meetings north of Atlanta. I live in Woodstock and hate to drive into the Atlanta area.

25. You can still smoke in the bars down there? I'm on my way,
because the sissies have taken over here in Connecticut.

26. Athens, GA has new non-smoking rules
After 11pm you can smoke in bars and clubs and restaurants but not before. It's working out OK so far. A few folks have been ticketed by the undercover smoking police but, mostly it's been OK. The weather is generally good here in the south, so going outside isn't too bad for the smokers. So ya'll come on down and join us next time!

It was great to see everyone and meet some new friends. I think we may have a couple of new DUers too!


Uly, let me know if you got stuck with a huge tab. Not that I'll help out or anything, just curious. :evilgrin:
