A great time was indeed had by all.
As John said above, I arrived early (about 12:30) to chat and catch up for a bit, as I had to leave at 3pm to get to work at the Cathedral downtown. After I was finished, I happily went back for more "fun" and to see the rest of the group, as only Bill Wood and Joe Kassock had arrived by the time I left.
It was absolutely wonderful to catch up with old friends, with people I haven't seen in YEARS, and to meet new friends as well.
Thanks for your hospitality, John! I still can't believe that I was up until 2am talking with you, Rob Shore, and Bill!
Are we still on for dinner on Tuesday? I look forward to chatting some more.
Your mini convention was, as always, a roaring success.
Happy Hoovering, all!

Oh boy, what a terrific weekend it was!

<span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">As always, another successful get-together at John's. Good food, great camaraderie, loads of laughter, and HOOVERS! And -- an unexpected and very delicious brunch at Mark & J.T.'s that was most pleasant and enjoyable.</span>
<span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">My photos follow: many thanks to John, Mark, and J.T. for their hospitality. I cherish the friendships that I made as much as the ones I renewed this weekend: here's to the next get-together, wherever it may be.</span>
<span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">Oh, and Greg: I do hope you're feeling better! I was looking forward to meeting you as well this time around. We can definitely get together anytime for coffee if you'd like -- feel free to e-mail me. </span>
<span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">All my best to everyone!</span>

Thank goodness that was LAST night.
With the snow that's falling, either no one would be here OR I'd have a house full of overnight guests. That would have been ok too........ picture THAT!!!!!

Alway a great happening, at John's !
John, looks like a bunch of fun as always when at you home ! I have known you for over 7 years now. I know you never disappoint a Vacuum Collector. Would have loved to be there. As well as to help driving with Luke. But just did not think about it being time for your Hoover review mini meet! So did not email Luke until the 31st. Not knowing that he was long gone !
Take Care, so glad it was a fine time ! Maybe next time !

Nice ornaments. Probably waited to late to ask, but do you have any closeups of the Hoover ornaments? Are they just glass balls with the Hoover name on them? Or do they look like little Hoovers?
Ralph,
it's not too late. I'll post afew pics a bit later tonight. It looks like Bloomingdale's here the day after Christmas.

And, yes, Matt
Dinner is still on. Remember to take your mirrored display cubes.
I'm glad you're enjoying your blender (Oster). Joe Kassock received a Hoover Brush Vac for his steps.
The other little tokewns, prizes, if you will, were just treated cleaning clothsa, air deodorizors, a set of plastic space vac bags, etc...............

Well, Mike
You certainly add to the fun and games. I don't really intend to "out do" myself. It's just great to see everyone, meet new people/make new friends, share in the excitement, and enjoy a nice meal.
These meets are a lot of work, but I really don't mind.
They are DRAMA Free, as a rule, no bashing, no badmouthing, no spies.... just good old vacuum fun among respectful, sometimes outrageously funny people.

I doubt there'll be any nasty letters mailed to me.
