Since it appears I might very well be the first armada participant to post I want to say that:
1) We REALLY missed you Kneal and um, Yury...uh, no chocolate this year
Although Scott B. said he had some I never saw it, so I'm not sure I believe him 
2)The North Branch was cookin and FUN!
3)The above statement of course must be followed by the mention that I had a blast thanks to Mike Watson and the use of his Probe 11 OC-1..Thank you Mike!!!
4)Thank you everybody who traveled so far to make it - what an incredible time!
5)It was wonderful to meet Matt, Jo, Camille, Joey, the Rockin OC-2 team J.W. and Bob, Mark, Walter and to see all the "regulars" again.
6)Seth's lucky he made it out alive-I heard at least 3 people say they were going to "ring his neck" - of course that implies that at least one of these three people would need to be able to actually catch him when he wasn't playing in a hole...Right... like THAT was ever gonna happen!
7)I think it's time we suggest to the owner of Fox's Pizza that we need to do a group photo every year w/him so he can start a hall of shame. He seemed to be much appreciative and relieved by the advance warn/uh, notice and it was apparent we'd reached an elevated status when he said "he'd prepared a room for us all"
."We just needed to follow him....."

Oh honey, I KNOW those words....NOW????? in Fox's PIZZA???? With Post-boating helmet head hair, paddle fatigue, exhaustion induced starvation? Well...................O.k.!
In my mind I'm thinkin apparently Fox's Pizza is a much more significant meeting place than we'd ever anticipated and
maybe we ought to re-think that photo session... we might not need the flash!
Had a great Great time...Sir Adam-the Hudson in the fall!
