"Come on a journey with me!"
Sadly did not get much writing done at the con. Was either to tired, to busy, helping a sick friend, or brain fried. Honestly though spite some food miss-haps. DO NOT EAT AT THE MAY DRAGON! It was all really fantastic. I will not go into to much detail in May Dragon, but give a few highlights. I eaten there every year for round about 7 years, never had a big problem this year was so bad I will not be going back. We where stuck there for over 2 hours. Took an hour just to take our orders. They served our vegetarian friend a vegetarian dish cooked in chicken broth, and really did not seem to care. The waiter was more prone to put the blame on everything else but himself. Constantly talking about how busy they where, but when I walked around looking for him there was hardly no one. There is a lot more, but really do not want to get into a long winded rant. The con itself was fantastic, only beef I have was at the end. In the closing ceremony they should mentioned about the buss taking the group of furs to the big cat sanctuary, as if I knew that could just taken a buss, I would have gone, but oh well.
Some highlights of the con>
Got to meet and really get to know an awesome local artist:
dotsfa Looking forward to getting to know her more and commissioning once money balances out again. Really hope to get to know you and see you more.
Got to know
Gideon who is really sweet guy and awesome artist to commission. Totally geeked over transformers. My wife and I thank you again Gideon. I will be posting the commission up when I can get the scans in. Look forward to seeing him again next year.
One an auction of an Awesome sexy African Wild dog picture from the artist
niis . Wanted to win her puppy play one, but someone else really wanted it. And I got a commission coming from here of a personal puppy play, so I let them have it. They where nice and let me have the African Wild dog in return. Which was my favorite, so al good :) I will post the commissions when I get them. I really look forward to seeing her again next year.
Got back in touch with
GuNMouTH which is really great. He really is a good guy to know. It was really good to see him again.
Had a fun game of X-wing with
goliathcpg Need to learn the rules a little better and how to manuever, but it was a real nail biter of a fight :) He one, but really not with out taking his lickings.
Got me some new anime figures from a local anime store, spent a bit to much, but really only shop there like once a year. Ate at awesome new Japanese place and finally had my Curry craving satisfied. Got my some new furry art books and some anime mangas. Always get the new Tsampikos book and got the Kaylii harem book. As seeing her harem work always inspires me.
Really enjoyed hanging out with a lot gang of friends I hang out with. Sadly I can not fit all your icons in here. Also seeing
moonstone out and about more and having lots of fun in her fursuit with Twiz was great. Also seeing my dear friend Savaana was great, keep up the good fight hon.
Big props to my Bro
sinuke Thanks for getting that character concept for me. I am itching to work on the story I want to right about her. I might set aside the other story and work on that right away. It just keeps taking over my mind. :P Again bro love you lots.
Now for the BIG and best saved for last. We raised about 18K for C.A.R.E. http://carerescuetexas.com/
That not even the best news. We helped them so much they are now doing so well they are even able to bring in another catch and release animal rescue charity to benefit from our support at the con. They are giving 25% what we raise to the charity. Which now means TFF is not just supporting one charity, but now we get to support two charities. That is amazing,
I always said bring a Furry con to DFW and it will explode it really has. Thank you to all the con staff form bringing this dream to real. We grown from 500 people to a con that getting toward 3,000 people. THANK YOU ALL!!
