Thank you Kenny for the barbecue


Wayne getting in on the action



We're missing the picture of us sitting around the table wondering what happened to Lester?

Kenny: "Hello, where about's are you guys? Yes, take the Bolsa Chica exit"

2nd call: "You're turning on Edinger now? Okay, see you in a few minutes"

What seemed like 15 minutes: "What happened? You're in the parking lot now? Finally!"


Someone moved or stole the off-ramp!


I was expecting to exit there, and it was gone!



Eva and Peter from Brisbane, Australia





The 2009- International AAB Fall Meet and Greet

Todd, Thank you for all the extras that you brought








Still more to come...

Thanks Scott for all you did and do. Was having so much fun didn't get much pictures of the BBQ and group. The camera you are using takes some great pictures. Love the Welder hand gestures on explaining how they moved the ramps. Looking forward to -Part 3

Interesting seeing the day from different views and perspectives one day we will have to consolidate all the posts into a organized record of events.(Uncle Bill?????)


Many thanks

Uncle Bill is waiting in the wings in the last set of pictures... stand by

I don't think my camera is anything special.
I do tweak them later: adjust the exposure, contrast, saturation, temperature(if necessary) and most important, sharpen the image. It's my understanding that most camera software intentionally softens the image sharpness.
Your DSLR took superior pictures last year
You just can't beat a high quality lens and large sensor.

Awards and prizes

Bill wins the raffled Mojomizer custom built SS Seeker rod
Thank you Mark for the generous gift!



You can hold my rod, but you have to give it back!



We're going to learn all of Jettywolf's secrets now!
Thank you Capt Dave



S L Dave and IN2DEEP tied for big fish honors









I changed the look of the copper leaves. Aged them 20 years in 5 minutes with some chemicals (patina) then rubbed tree wax on them for protection (I like this look)


The AAB aluminum sticker adds a nice touch



Thanks to all that flew in, and showed for this fun get together.

... And now, our very own, AAB Village People, would like to perform a closing number!


!!!THE CROWD GOES WILD!!!

Scott -

The AAB sticker looks great! Did you have any difficulties putting her on?

Great pictures! I sure had a great time meeting everyone & fishing the Pacific. Speaking of time, I think my body is still on SoCal time I'm still sleepy.

Has anyone got an update on Peter & Eva's travels?

Damn that looked like too much FUN.

Great pics and wow a Mojo rod was up for grabs? Outstanding, stuff.
Too bad it has the power to make you spend alot on fuel.
