There is a tradition, going back to the Erik Bergstrom [moderator] days, of a group photo at the Kalmbach booth for those who enjoy the Forums on this website. This year it will be Saturday at noon -- and of course all Kalmbach staffers are especially urged to join us (and I see once again that Rene from Garden Railroads will be there Sunday but not Saturday - darn). Keith Schmidt and I have already posted about this in each magazine's separate forum. But anybody who visits the site is welcome to join in the group photo, whether you chat in the Forums or not -- see you then.
