Holy Schnikies , Saturday was off the hook!

[TheTank]

Just got up from a little nap to try to make up for the lost sleep this weekend. All I can say is that this event was OFF THE HOOK! Elie went to great lengths to make this event as successful as it was, and I dont think I would be wrong if I said that everyone had an unbelievable time. As for the after-hours event at Elie's house... no doubt an epic event to go down in the pages of history of FG! From the entertainment to the aileron whippings (sorry Bravo) I really don't think it can be topped! Thanks everyone for a great time! It was definetly awsome to see everyone again, almost like a mini-Joe Nall! Looking forward to Huckfest Ohio!!!!!!

Great event guys! After hours at Elies was for the record books. Great food/beer I got to meet all the guys Madmax, Snap, SleepyC, Jonny Bravo, kitman, and others. After hours hucking was awsome. Need some TLC on the Trex450 and Fliton needs some packing tape and some solacaine burn cream.

Everyone talks about events and how great of a time they always have, I have been to a few myself. However since I have started hanging to the FG Crew events have never been the same. One of my close friends went with me this time and it was his first big event. On the way home Friday he was beside himself with the way everyone got along and was able to fly and have a good time. I spent the time to introduce him to the "Gods of the Flying Giants" (Max, Joe, Greg, Steve, John, and my HERO ELIE which he already knew). I told him if he thought Friday was good wait for Saturday to get into full swing, especially once the group could get together and enjoy a few wobbly pops. I have spoke with him several times today and he continues to tell me how great it is that I have such a large group of individuals to be involved with. I had to explain to him Flying Giants isn't just a group of individuals but a family of friends. So for those of you that always seem to come up with an excuse why you are unable to attend a Flying Giants event, next time you need to come up with an excuse for the wife and work.

All the individuals (especially Elie) involved in making this weekend possible need to stand up and take a bow. This was definitely one for the Flying Giants record books.

Hey guys, trying not to pass out from NO SLEEP....
But I uploaded a few more "after hours" shots in the gallery.

Elie - YOU ARE the MAN!
Your hospitality knows no bounds. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.
To all the friends old and new, MAN what a great weekend. The website is cool, but what it brings about is what makes it AWESOME.

How freaking RAD is it that we can show up 600 miles from home and have 100+ friends to hang out with. Really AWESOME!

I can't wait to get it on in OHIO! We will keep the series GOING!!

Tons of video to go through, I'll try to have a schweet video up in a day or two...
Hang in there it should be worth it.

Again, to all who attended, THANK YOU, you guys are what made the event what it was... and again to Elie, THANKS for EVERYTHING. There isn't a marketing firm in the world with an unlimited budget that could create you... you are a generous person, and a great friend... Thanks SNAP.

PS: I left a check on your kitchen table for the destruction of your back yard, and I promise I'll have Momo house train Max for next year.

PPS: MAX!!! Why was I holding a water Mellon again?
