    Sorry, I would love to attend but this is during Con of the North and I am running boardgames there every day of the convention.

    Ah, a bright spot in bleak winter! Perhaps there will be some vegetarian pizza this time? I live in hope.

    This is such a fun group! Games played ranged from Sequence and Apples to Apples to a variety of Eurogames. Word on the Street was again played by multiple groups and is quite the favorite among many! Thanks to those of you who helped teach games too. Thanks to all who helped set up and clean up (thanks Tom for taking the lead on the dishwasher & Vida who helped wash down all the tables).
