As the Charlotte event is in progress, let's post photos here. I've attached a couple to get us started: two views from my hotel window looking down on the parking lot as everyone was arriving earlier today...

A few more...

The show today was awesome and the weather was perfect (albeit very hot)!

Thanks Gary. Looks like I've got 142 photos to resize and post. Gulp.
This might take a few days.

I've posted less then half of the pics I plan to upload and have run out of space in my album account. Gary, can anything be done or can I start
a new aardvaark2 account and a new album?

These were some interesting pics. We were lined up pretty nicely. Sort of surrealistic, op art, or something.
