[charlie]

Nuthin yet. Sounds like it may turn out to be another good picture taking day. I know it is supposed to rain!!

[charlie]

Just an update here, I think things are leaning our way folks!!! There may not be many people coming over, but the fact is I think they are leaning towards at least a few hardy souls are headed our way. More later when I find out exactly what they want to do, ie., frag swap...........

[Sarmo]

I received this e-mail from the secretary of the spcda club this morning:

Yes, its official, we will be holding our December meeting in Montana with the Flathead Valley reefers! It is going to be a blast for any and all who can make it. Charlie Ehlers has volunteered to host, and let us drool over his awesome 300 gallon (well 400 if you cant the sump) barebottom SPS dominated tank (pictures of his tank are attached). Like any great holiday party, we will have snacks, fun, socializing, and…….. frag swapping!! Because only true reefers require frag swaps at all parties!
Join our discussion at http://spcdareefs.org/forum/index.php?topic=77.0 for coordinating swaps, finding carpool buddies, and just checking for incremental updates.
To give everyone who wants to attend time to plan, we are sending out the address information early.
Date: 12/19/09 (note this is 1 week later than our normal meeting, we will not have our normal meeting this month)
Time: Meeting officially begins at 1:00 PM, but feel free to come and go when you can, arriving late is more than welcome!
Location: Charlie’s tank @ 1290 Tamarack Ln, Columbia Falls, Mt 59912

We have ourselves a meeting folks!!!!!!

[returnofsid]

We'll be there!! Are we all bringing food items so Charlie doesn't have to go broke feeding us all?

Also, I'll be bringing our 36" Aqualight Pro 150 MH, to put over his 100 gallon Tub-O-Corals, for the frag swap.

[charlie]

Michael, the club is gonna foot the bill for most of the chow, but if you feel like you want to bring food, you go right ahead, I am sure someone will eat it.

Hello neighbors. I have a bunch of zoos and/or palys (I really don't know how to tell the difference), mushrooms, polyps, a green polyp leather, and of course plenty of xenia (as does the rest of our club). Also some monte cap, pavona, tiny pocilapora frag, and a pagoda cup I'm contemplating chopping up. If any of this appeals to you let me know and I'll try to get some pictures available. Some of this i may bring anyways... can't hurt, right?

HAHA, that's who that other username was!!!


My son will be coming with us for the weekend. He'll be snowboarding Big Mountain(Yeah, I know they changed the name, but it was dumb!!), while us fish nerds are "ooohing and aaaaahing" over Charlie's tank!!

Some of you may remember him snowboarding off of our house last winter...lol.

[charlie]

I had forgotten about that story!!

[returnofsid]

Crazy Kid!! Anyway, he's really excited about going and I'm really glad he'll be joining us. We need some Dad/Son time!!

[charlie]

Sounds like it, geez if he has to jump out of the window just to get to school, I mean come on Michael!!!!

[CutthroatKid]

It'll always Big Mountain.
I hope we get more snow soon! I didn't even want to go today. I wonder if the park will have anything when you guys are here?

[lostcreekreefer]

Hi Charlie - I'm planning on being there...did you ever try Brandon out to see if he's alive?

Is it me or is it getting way cold outside?

[charlie]

Talked to Brandon for about 1/2 hour yesterday morning. Things are good there!!!!

Cold.....................where?

[Sarmo]

i'm kind of hot and sweaty, but the dirty banana drink and the caribbean breeze do help
who's bringing frags?
