Here is our host, Thomas MacEntee, and his partner, George (both from Chicago area):
Across the table from Thomas and George were (from the left):

At the back table were (from left):
* Craig Manson (Geneablogie blog) from Carmichael CA
* Illya D'Addezio (Genealogy Today owner) from New Jersey
* Jane Rollin (almost a geneablogger) from L.A. area (I think)
Across the table from the above were (from left):

This dinner was so much fun. They could hear the laughter out in the Conference Center from our special room. Inside, we could hardly hear each other talk.
I will have more pictures posted soon - need to get some homework done first! If anybody wants a copy of my photos, please email me at rjseaver@cox.net. Or you can just download them from here. They are all about 1 megabyte in size and the images are fairly good for my relatively old camera without a zoom lens.

Wonderful. Thank you, Randy!
Thanks so much for keeping us up to date. I was so disappointed that I had to cancel our trip at the last minute, but after reading your comments and looking at the pictures I feel almost like I was there.
Thanks for sharing Randy! It's good to put a face to the names/blogs.

Thanks for taking and sharing the pics and all the twittering you did. I followed along the whole time :-)
Hi, Randy
It was great to see you at Jamboree 2009 and I'm already looking forward to next year. Your twittering was GREAT!
