Would have put this in the fests but it is already over.
Had the pleasure of meeting Philarenewal (Keith and wife Kim) in Philly Monday (flew thru PHL on business). Keith sure gave me an appreciation of the obstacles to be overcome in doing renewal work in a big city. And, he bought me a beer, friends for life!
About the first thing I said to Keith was ” somebody commented in a thread once about how many in Breaktime having a beard” <G> do not remember who said that.
Believe everybody I have met personally that is on BT is someone I TREASURE having met, as is reinforced by all positive comments from past fest posts.
Kinda funny, I get thru hubs like Philly a few thousand miles away more often than nearby places like Tacoma, but BTers everywhere. Gotta find that ‘placemat’ thread again with the map and icons.

Art: you back already?
It was our pleasure to meet you and we hope you come back again soon. Next time you can sample Kim's home cooking (be brave -- she's not that bad a cook ;-) Or if you're posting more local and can stop by on the way back through, be great to host you for dinner sooner.
Anyway, like I said we really enjoyed meeting you and talking with you and hope you will visit again.

Breaktimers are wonderful people.
