Nice luncheon everyone... good food and good people. Glad I was able to make it. Thanks to Big Frank for putting this together. I just wish I had the chance to really chat with everyone.

As far as the group picture goes, across the back from left to right are:
BigRick, Jericap's DH, Big Frank, Jericap, IreneLF, Craig (chap7), Lawren, Jackio, Harold (DH to Lawren), and Charlie (DD to Craig).
Seated left to right are: Billymach, Terri (DW to BigRick), Joe (DH to Holly), Holly and her dear daughter.

Looking forward to the next one.

What a great get-together you guys had. Thanks for posting the pictures and putting names to the faces for us who haven't met you yet. We need to get organized and have a big TS4MS get-together one day soon. It could be a mini vacation like someone mentioned already here.

What a wonderful time!

My husband and daughter had a ball, and thanks for teaching them the secret handshake!

I really enjoyed meeting everyone, and I'm looking forward to the next one!

What a great time we had! Nice meeting all of you. Hopefully we can do this again soon! Traffic wasn't bad at all on the way home.

Frank, your comments re Joe and his photo were hilarious

Thanks for the lift to the subway, and we did just fine timewise, no delays.
I hesitate to say this, but I must, especially since you said your son uses the same station - we saw a Large Mickey on the platform - not the tracks, the platform. It never came our way, but it had to be pretty bold to be out there with people.
Thanks for playing host, and everything else today.

EVERYONE::: It was nice to meet all of you and put faces to screen names, (and meet their spouses). Good choice of restaurant and good company made my afternoon.

ANGELA: You're right, Frank had the beer but I had a glass of wine for you
I hope you're feeling better.

It was a wonderful visit with the forums friends. I'm really glad I got to share the good food and great company. Craig, I was able to get my car out of the parking space - thanks for the offer to help.

Didn't Joe organize your whole lunch? He just didn't show up or you knew in advance?

Glad that you guys had a wonderful time, and hope to join you all, at the next one.

Thanks Irene, for having that glass of wine for me. Hope you enjoyed it!

First part of your Question was yes he did start the ball rolling, Part 2 he posted that he was not coming because there were no over 20 coming. We all thought he was kidding.

I didn't know what to expect being a newbie and meeting a group of people
I never knew before. But what a great time it turned out to be and what
a friendly and personable group you all turned out to be. I'm glad Craig
brought me along. Special thanks to BigFrank. The food and company were
excellent. Hope to see all of you again at future gatherings.

The pictures help

I recognized Lawren, never met but but have seen her picture. Recognized Bigfrank. Same circumstances. Recognized Irene but we met a few weeks ago. Looks like it was a funtime.
