This was also the last PNW Gathering to be hosted at the Renton Technical College by our gracious host John Marshall. Carbon111 and Laura picked up the cake below for him.
Videos of each talk will follow through the week. I took 23.7 G of pics and video. Big thanks to John L Rice for his 16 G memory card! And Jarett for loaning me his PC to move pics and vids off my memory card.
This was probably the most successful PNW Synth meeting ever. Many manufacturers were present. Professional musicians were present. I sure do miss Jim Patchell. We have regulars from as far away as Victoria and Yakima. Thanks for the send off cake. I will miss you guys. It was a very nice surprise. John
