We are now up to 40 BNers joining this year. Big group photo! Speaking of group photo.... does anyone know of one, or have one from alpine?
The same Twister we had at Alpine I hope!
Definately
a man your age can still play "Twister"? I'd be worried about falling and breaking a hip, if I were you.
Twister is a spectator sport. Especially if we have the same participant(s) as Alpine

I have a series of shots I am going to try to stitch into a large panorama.
as a note from looking at them:
a) have someone not in the group, but familiar with the camera take the shots. That way, the photographer can actually be in a shot or two. (Ideally, digital camera with a tripod.. makes the panning on the level easier.)
b) have the photographer get everyone's attention and tell them to "look at the hand" or some other reference point so they are all looking the same direction.
c) at some point, you have to yell, "Sit the *()&* down and stay *()&)*&ing still." it will keep the stitching issues to a minimum.
d) a megaphone would be helpful as well, to help with the social butterflies, fluttering in the area and not realizing the pic is happening!
You’re still grinning, we’re still winning, nothing left to say
I’m still gliding as I go flying down this endless wave

You sure you want to do that? I wouldn't wish Harvey upon my worst enemy (although it's not as bad as it used to be...) If you can't find Tinley, there are a few nice hotels on the West side of Joliet (off of Houbolt rd) that aren't too far away
Thanks for the info. I might do that. How far is Joliet from Tinley Park?

Hey, at least we got most everyone in the area... we need work on our corralling skills!
Maybe we should designate someone who's going to be sober to corral everyone up!
Sober? You're kidding, right!
Just kidding... I know it's possible, but I'm not volunteering!
I have a bf who I bet would have a ball doing that........I'll see what he says and get back with you. BadHabits is the sober one of the bunch...it's great b/c I have a built in babysitter and someone that insures I get home!

With being sober at the concert last year (because I was pregnant) I am planning on being the LEAST sober this year. Just to make up for loss time. (ok... i dont want to not remember the concert, but I will establish a very nice buzz)
I was thinking I like Jimmys music so much, I dont have to drink to have a good time, I will just go to enjoy the music and not the drinking. NOT TRUE! I like the drinking as much as I like the music!

Hey now! I resemble that remark! I was pretty much stone cold sober at Alpine. I had 2 Corona lights the entire day! Don't get any ideas, though. I may not be so good at Tinley!
