Always nice seeing a good turnout, even if we did get stuck in the corner and couldn't sit at the big kids table, LOL.

Sorry to those who got stuck in the corner. We had a larger turnout then I expected and they couldn't accomidate all of use at one table. but still good to get together.

Thanks for coming!

Yeah, for my first outing, a good experience. Enjoyed my time at the kids table. I guess that's what happen when an event is oversold. Look forward to meeting more of you at another one.

Next time we should go somewhere that 'takes reservations'. they couldnt promise seating would be available. All in all I think they did a good job and more over - there was not one issue with the OC and that's what its all about.

Did anyone have issues? other then a few :what:from other patrons?
