The Convention is Underway!

You know that the AAPA convention has started when you see a bunch of us enjoying Chinese food. That convention tradition was started by the late Charlie Bush in the early 1980s, and is still popular at today's conventions.

Enjoying the tradition this evening at the Hong Kong Buffet were 23 lively AAPAers, to wit: Gary Bossler, Linda Donaldson, Sean Donnelley, George Hamilton, Leland Hawes, Michael Jacobs, Austin and Jean Jones, Bill Justice, Jiyani Lawson, Guy Miller, Susan Petrone, Jack and Maurine Scott, Sky and Johanna Shipley, Ivan Snyder, Dale and Debra Starr, Bob Tauber, Dave and Liz Tribby, and Jack Visser. I also saw Barry Schrader, but he did not join us for supper.

It has just started. Stay tuned for more reports as they happen, and we'll try to have some photos for you to see.
