Okay, everyone's home safely and we've all got stories to tell. Did you meet Al for the first time? Got a picture of Larry Weaver eating ice cream? Did you spot Grant's band before their, uh, mishap? Did you see UHJeff peek at the answer sheet before the trivia game? (Please, anyone?!) Well, I wanna know your stories and see your pictures!! And so do the many other people reading this page.
This page is a collection of pictures, reviews, and other fun stuff contributed from people who attended ALCON II and had a blast! Marty "TorsoBoy" of Al-oholics Anonymous suggested a central location where one could go to share pictures and reviews, so here it is. If you like the idea, you can thank him for it. If you don't like the idea, then just keep your mouth shut or he'll send you back to 1955. When you click on a link below, you will be leaving my website and brought to a webpage which hosts the pictures, reviews, or other files.
If you attended ALCON III and have a story to share, or pictures to share, put them on your web page and then e-mail me so I can add a link on this page. Please try to be as descriptive as possible with your picture descriptions, so others can find what they are looking for without having to wade through a hundred pictures named "alcon01.jpg," "alcon02.jpg," etc.
