Glad everyone had a good time. I enjoyed the pictures, but the very last one of the sunset is totally awesome.

We got there after 2:30pm because of the heavy traffic going across to the island. Took about an hour to get from Bradenton to Manatee Beach, and then parking was ridiculous. We walked around for a long time but didn't see Bran, so sorry we missed everyone. It was just soooo crowded tho it's not surprising. Maybe next time I'll know what to expect with traffic, parking and crowds and all....... or I'll get Bran's phone number......... -Jim

Jim, I'm really sorry man!!! I realized on my way over that the only thing I neglected to do, was to give out my cell phone number for everyone to contact me if they need to. I won't make that mistake again. I believe the reason we missed each other is because we were all sitting almost directly in front of the lifeguard tower, just chatting and such for about an hour or more before we all headed off to detect for a while. I don't think any of us anticipated the traffic and parking to be "that" bad... but we'll try to plan around that kind of stuff next time. I'm thinking of maybe another get-together this Summer maybe?
Sorry again Bro!
