This will be my second MACNA ,, last year it was awesome and I expect this year to be better ,the speakers are great and I learned so much last year ,, this year we are going a few days early and making it a week vacation ,,,If you ever get a chance to go its worth it,,,
I'm going. It's too close to Little Rock to not go. This will be my first, and I'm looking forward to it.

I'm sure someone will take it off your hands. I went last year and had an absolute blast. So much to see, lots of freebees (especially for full pass), lots of fellow reefers and well known authors in the field to talk to. I would be going down but due to work it's just not in the cards this year. I'm sure Dallas will be a good time!

Yeah! That would be really cool to hang with the RS crew during the dinner, bragging about all of the new equipment we saw and corals that caught our eyes. Do you know where it's gonna be next year? I haven't looked yet so don't know if it's posted yet. They always sell tickets for the following year at a discount there at MACNA. When you find out let me know. I'm hoping it'll be somewhere on the east coast. If it's in Florida then I'll have to plan a couple dives while I'm there.

I cant wait til its within 500 miles id be there.
IF i used my vacation time to go to that, my wife would do Terrrrrrrrible things to me.. I couldnt convince her to go at gunpoint, so i guess thats a no. Im going to be down by dallas on the 5th, but only to exchange tanks with a fellow aquariast. his big tank, for my two smaller ones.
Good news John, plus that means Glenn must be going also he's in Arkansas.
