Great to hear but I thought you said you weren't going?

I was able to clear my workload in time.

Thankfully! It was great hanging out! Let's make sure we both go to the next one!

Thoroughly enjoyed both attending and humbled that I was able to present on the same roster as so many rock stars here (ahem, Mr. Sonder...).

Brought the whole family. That was a treat as school just let out. The girls played while dad learned and worked. That means I kept the long nights at the fire or up the hill at the Thunderhead to reasonable hours... It also meant my intake of fine beverages was reasonable. We spent a few extra days in CO - over the Trail Ridge Road into Boulder and then a little hang out time.

Highly recommended. The vibe reminds me of past Timber Framers Guild conferences. Lots of incredible people doing all sorts of great work, and all willing to share or just hang out together.

Life continues to be good.

And Dave and Nick - a pleasure meeting you (and others I'm sure that are in here that I can't remember a name for...)

It was indeed a pleasure to meet you, too, Mike. I wish there'd been more time to chat.

Mixed blessing having the family along. The wife was all in on me doing my thing (she had been out of town for work for 10 days prior to us leaving for CO for her own work and conference (37,000 attendees!)) - but I liked hanging out with my SKP peeps and my family. Sort of torn!

Next time around, for sure.

Dave R

Understood. And I hope so, too.

Hey guys, sure was fun putting faces to names!

And Pete, I looked high and low for you all conference so I could throw a couple cocktails down your throat; sorry that our paths never crossed...

An excellent event, for sure, and was quite happy that I went.
