First Ever Dallas GTG Last Night

Last night I met up withChip, Sam and Clifton for a soda and some great conversation. We did a lot of catching up and getting to know you talk. I really had a blast and all three of those dudes are about as cool as cool can be. Thanks for the GTG guys, we really need to do it again soon.

Here are just some quick shots from last night. Sorry for the quality, but it was dark and late and we were looking over our shoulders, LOL!! There was more than just a bit of watch candy on that table!!

Hey Daren! It was fun and we'll have to do it again sometime. Fortunately no one got clubbed in the head and had their watches stolen. That place was a little sketch for that tableshot.

Looks like a good time was had by all. And a nice grouping of watches, except for that orange thingy toward the left. Don't tell me the Pumpkin immigrated to Dallas from Aukland?

Nice GTG guys. It's great to be able to meet up with other people with the same affliction.

The bad part is, I did not even have a sniff of alcohol. I just had a long day that is all.

And... I am the one on the left...

...and also the one that brought the pumpkin.

Sorry about having to bail on you guys early last night.
I REALLY did NOT want to leave but I had to be up way to early and I am not a morning person!

We got to do this again.

I just noticed - not only do you guys have good taste in watches (well, except for that orange POS - sorry Chip, knee-jerk reaction ), but you also have good taste in beer. Sam Adams is one of the best commercial beers brewed in the U.S. And here I thought all you Southwesterners only drank Coors Light - which is one step below Poland Springs bottled water for taste.
