And someone posted this pic, I think Roy, first ever GTG at Lakair, not necessarily a planned event at that time, but a great picture nontheless, some of the members are still here, some are not.

Darn, I wish I was one of those people in the picture. I know quite a few in that picture, but have never, ever, met any of them.

Yes....that was a good weekend.

Top row left to right we have:

Marty, AlanJ, GaryV, Muskiestudd,one of Mikeo's sons, then the holy trinity of Kronik, CoolB and (help me out) then Spiel, TJ, Tony (Marty's brother) and Cory

Front row, left to right:

Garry 2R's,Canadave,MikeO, another of MikeO's little ones, the Dwarf and Kevin.

That was the very first and I still remember the great time we had.

The weather for the first G2G was to say the least WET WET WET, everyone had a good time ( some more than others ) and it has continued from there. As mentioned in Roy's post I was at the first one probably due to me persueing the idea with TJ. Didn't go again until 2006 and all I can say was it has got bigger and better. When you can get that many people together from all walks of life and geographical areas and they get along for 3 or more days and just enjoy each others company it's simple amazing. Hope to be there in 2007.

That was the board run through Zoology at UofT, right? That's the first board I "joined" when I started fishing in 1999, heard about OFC afterwards and then moved over. That board went downhill shortly after if I remember correctly...

With just a few people there at least Roy didn't have a problem with finding a place to sleep....as if he still does :lol:

 

GaryV I was and still am simply amazed at the experience of a Lakair g2g, I sure hope to return :santa:
