We are on our way to IMAC!!

Dana and I were just at a 4 day music festival near Springfeild, IL, we are about an hour away from chicago now and will be in Chicago for the rest of the week. Its gonna be a WHOLE LOTTA fun!!!

I'm hoping my tanks will be ok, my mom is feeding them for me so everything should be good to go when i get home with all me new goodies.

Everything is doing fine, except, didn't you have a tang? The skimmer is about 3/4 full. Do I just lift it off and empty it?







See how happy I am? I like it when grandma comes over to feed us.

Just got done with Calfo, his presentation was GROSS, from now on i am wearing gloves when i handle stuff.

As far as the rest of the event, it is alot smaller than i thought it would be and the vendors should be handing out lube with the purchase of frags. Guess im just used to "club prices"



I bought a couple pieces and will be bringing back some rods food.
