Great time everyone. See you all on the trails soon I'm sure.

Looks like another great dinner, and at the Cactus Club no less [8D] I suppose I should read the Events board more often so I dont only hear about these afterwards.... I dont want a rep fer being a snob and they do look increasingly entertaining. Good photos too...!

Missed you guys-wish I could have been there.Did,however,catch some of the hockey game-damn fine entertainment!Todd,I guess now you have a good getup as Grapes for next Hallowe'en!:) Mick

Yea sorry I missed it too. :( But I did have a good visit with my daughter who I haven't seen for three months, so I'll have to catch up with you Ct'ers next time.

Another great dinner, and they do seem to get better every time, already looking forward to the next one. Even though I didnt get a chance to meet anyone new, it was good to see nomad and janie again after a few months.

... poor moose

Good times, everybody !! Nice to see our traveling CTers back in town. Thanks for putting it together Jim. :D

what a fun evening !! Great to meet everyone, known and new.

I drifted back home, in the rainy night, smiling as I drove the slick streets. It's wonderful to be part of this warm online community. Thank you Jim and Jim for founding CT and for bringing us all together. The dinners are as much fun as the hikes!

nice pictures Nut, though I suspect there are a few missing ;)

cheers ! C Wall

It was a great time last night. Lots of entertainment. We presented Russ with his very own Christmas thong. He claims he's going to be a real ladies man now with that one. Nice work Donna - you did an awesome job! I didn't get any pics as I was helping present it. I'm sure there will be some pics coming soon.

I wanted to thank everyone for the cool card. It was a really neat surprise! I appreciate all the kind words. Also, many thanks for chipping in for dinner. All of that wasn't necessary. But I do appreciate it. You're all great people and I'm glad to know you.

We also had a small drawing for an MSR mug and MSR visor glasses holder. Drifter took home the mug and the visor went to Jel. Enjoy!

I didn't take too many pics from last night, but here are some:

I knew it would be a fun time but I just couldn't give up watching the Canucks play the Avalanche. It was spectacular hockey!

Heheh you guys missed out. You know they were playing the game at Cactus Club.

Dinner was great!!! Nice to meet all the new, old...and older faces of CT..;) Just wanted to give another round of thanks to Jim and Jim....bo for the wicked dinner and attitudes! You guys and gals all ROCK.

There's no point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes.

It was another "Great CT Dinner" made up for the last one I missed...

Thanks to one and all for comming out. It was great to see a few new faces!:D Whatta Group!

Hehe...too much fun! Each CT dinner seems to take on a unique character of it's own. This dinner featured Russ the Hiker with a truly festive thong graciously provided by bikerider, and Exscape did a great job in organizing a CT thankyou to the Jims for all their work in creating and maintaining the website.
Here's a few more pics of the festivities:

Now you've gone and done it, everyone's going to want to get a pair of those Sponge Bob boxers! ...although I can see several people wanting to wear them on their heads! [8D]
