That was a lot of fun! Though next time you might want to tune your guitars before you start rolling :)

I really enjoyed watching this!!

Suzi
Suzi, you can blame the bad tuning on their poor director. You can see him in the reflection of the glass/banner behind them. He had to go and have a beer later just to settle his nerves. :laugh: :laugh:
Although, he is the same guy that provided all of the still pictures that you've seen so far, and you liked them, so maybe he did do something right while there :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

Funny you should mention that, Scott!! Because when I was first watching the video I kept seeing a reflection of someone in the banner, and I thought, "Who the heck is that and what are they doing? Are they peering in the window?" :laugh: Then Neil mentioned it was you and that Corina was back there. No, you did a great job filming and with all the pics! And I was just teasing about the tuning :)

Aw, thanks!! :blush: :) I do like teasing! I had a chance to chat with Ness about camp and it sounded like a wonderful weekend! I'm so glad you all had a great time. I think if this becomes a yearly tradition, there is a good chance I will make it happen at some point. My sister is in the process of moving to the Bay Area, so that'll give me an opportunity to see her, too!

Hello Everyone!
Neil told me last night that it was time for me to make a post so here it is!
First, I want to thank everyone one who attended IGC last weekend. It was, as most of you have already commented, a magical time for everyone. I think I mentioned to many of the campers how wonderful it was seeing the camp unfold, from a little intimidated at first to long lasting friends and buddies at the end. My job was easy, it was - "Welcome to my house, make yourself comfortable, if you need anything ask!" One weekend long party...
I'd also like to thank Lynn for helping me with the goodie bags. From the moment that she sent me a youtube video about her ideas, I knew we were on the same path. Lynn, you are a star! I'd also like to thank Annie and Corina. Both of you are incredible, helping out with the water, taking Al to the airport, cleaning up at the end. Annie also housed Andy's wife Wendy, Corina and Matt and Haley. What a rockstar!
I'm so glad I got a chance to spend time with Vanessa, Corina, Scott and Wiley before camp began. My introduction to Scott was to walk right in, introduce myself and then find out that he and Vanessa were in the middle of the video lesson! Scott - thank you for the pictures of Rosa May.
Neil and I are already starting to think and plan (Lynn - get ready!) about next year, close to the same dates, SO.......

Take care,
Nani (and Potsticker)

Nani, your hospitality set the tone. You are a wonderful host and just one of those people whom everyone likes. Your smile is infectious and I'm so proud I got to meet you. I know Neil was a little worried at times, hoping this would all work out to everyone's expectations, and I know the "behind the scenes" stuff had to have gone much smoother with you back in the shadows. Thanks for everything you did to make our camp special.
Scott

First, my apologies to everyone for not posting and responding more. I had promised the wife a couple days of She and I, which lasted about twenty hours before I headed south on important family business. Even today, I have loads to do as we have a house party scheduled for tonight. Funny ain't it - life still 'gets in the way', but I wouldn't have it any other way.

I have one quick comment, and that sure is not like me. To everyone, "Life Changing" are the two words that quickly come to mind.
Hi Wiley,
you are a busy guy for sure. :) We had a blast at the IGC and I am all the more blessed for having met you in person.

You sure talk a lot of sense and are very knowledgeable in a host of subjects.

Glad to hear you are making time for all aspects of your life. I took my wife out for a meal last night and it was great to just sit and catch up.

Enjoy your house party tonight and yes, 'life changing,' is quite appropriate. :)

See you later,


Tom N.
