Ishi - getting to meet up with everyone is the main reason I go to Blade! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> This was the third one for me, and it just gets better each time!! I fully understand the quandry of trying to decide if I really want to spend the money to go, or just find a proxy and use the money for knives. But I'm telling you --- it's worth the trip!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Well, chow time, so catch ya'll later! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

No doubting that the personal interactions make it worth the trip. The quandry for me is, if we have two trips a year...one of which I get to determine....it's hard for me to pick Blade over HUNTING. I really get a lot of energy from being in the woods and disconnecting from technology / society completely....mass decompression. Oh well...maybe I'll make more money and be able to afford both some day. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Would really dig meeting all of you folks. The reports back where extremely laid back.
