Default [PICS] Even more from the Orlando show

Well I'm back and finally thawed out from the show in Orlando. The weather on Friday was absolutely FREEZING, the temp was in the low 30's I would say and after being out there from 10am to almost 5pm it took about 2 hours of sitting on the heater in the hotel room to stop shaking. Friday and Saturday it warmed up and was pretty nice, although still not warm enough for me.

Met some really great people who I hadn't seen before. Guy and his buddy Dana, Leon, Doug, Ken, and a couple of people I'm sure I forgot to add....hey I just woke up an hour ago. Saw some old timers I've known for a while now too.

The show was rather interesting, didn't get to see as much as I wanted as I had obligations to take care of, but there were some sweet sharks there as usual, and a couple of C5's worth mentioning since they had C5-R motors in them...see if you can spot them in the pictures.

Had a run in with a vendor who has absolutely no manners, is completely rude and wouldn't do anything for anyone unless he could make a buck and believe it or not I kept my cool and did punch his stupid face in...but I'll refrain from naming him for now. But you know what they say, bad news travels fast and I'll be sure to pass the word. I heard other people talking about him in a not so nice way too so I know it wasn't just me.

Overall the show was great, had a good time and hung out with a great bunch of people, even one of the big name vendors went out to dinner with us on Saturday night. And a big thanks to Sean, aka: Monkeywrench for giving me a break...THANKS! I needed it.
