Hilary:
Good thinking on your part sending pictures around to everyone so we know who we are looking for! Well, at least the four of us (Zauber, Desi, you, and I) know who to look for! I am sure Magpie has seen our pictures at the old TR archive site and will recognize us, too.
Now Ilyannë/Lisa and Almarae/Nancy will have something to go on so they can find us since we don't know what they look like!
I am getting so antsy! I just can't wait! Just wait til you see the manuscripts. You will be in awe!

The Conference is over and everyone has returned home with memories of a very enjoyable time. Meeting each other was the icing on the cake! I was able to get a couple of my books autographed by the authors--Tom Shippey and Karen Wynn Fonstad were more than happy to do that! Ted Nasmith was there, too! I did not have anything of his that I could have him sign though. The first night, we all met at the Safe House which is a spy themed pub and restaurant. It was very interesting to get into! There was a hidden panel door and a hallway with a dead end! Here we are outside of it: Left to Right: Almarae, Stormrider, Nikkie (a lady who had not met up with her group yet), Hilary behind Ilyanne, Zauber, and Magpie (Desi took the picture) Some of the pictures of speakers that Desi took are a bit dark and I need to work with them to lighten them up. We will be posting them in an album at the TR Member Photobucket soon. photobucket.com/albums/v230/TRmembers/ Do you all remember the password? It is tolkienrulesHere is another group picture of all of us at the end of the conference outside on the Marquette campus: Left to Right: (Standing) Magpie, Zauber, Hilary, Laura (a young lady who roomed with Ilyanne and now a great friend) (Sitting) Ilyanne, Stormrider, Desi, Almarae

The conference was very exciting! Seeing the archives was so wonderful and amazing. The speakers were very interesting and most of them even funny at parts! It was so much to absorb in just 2 days. I am hoping that some of those speakers will inspire me to post some discussion topics! And meeting everyone in person was more wonderful than can even be described!!! ;D

I have added the pictures that Desi had taken of the conference into the TR Member photobucket album now. I lightened a few of them up because they were dark.
