I plan on being there, looking forward to hearing and seeing about what's happening at the zoo. I haven't seen any forecast but I hope there isn't any snow in it. :-D

I really like what the team has planned for the new aquarium. Of course I would love to see more reef habitats modeled but know that many people will walk right by a brilliant deep water reef to see filthy flightless birds LOL
plus the reefs are so much more labor intensive. It has to be about the bang for the buck
one good crest and lagoon will be nice to have: big ups to therman for coming through with a big coral donation. very cool brother!!!!
Penny, I did not get time to say, but it looks like you have some really nice projects going on. I really like the planted tanks you have going on!
Scott, thanks a bunch for the pizza and other goodies and for all the time you have spent working on the site up-grades!!!
And last but by no means least: Chris, well done putting the meeting together!! He did all of the organizing, arrangements with Penny and brought Jay in. Its more work than it sounds and the fact that no one notices is a testament to what a good job he did!!!!
It was great to see such a nice turn out too and I am sorry that I did not get a chance to say hello to more people
