One of my favorite light boxes. For a night light it has a dimmer built into the switch.

Ho-ly shit.

We did another one. Ran it back and did it again.

Full review tomorrow, but today just grateful of everyone who helped make this happen.

Me to the cute TSA girl as she pulls a bag of chips out of my bag.

"Please be careful if you dump those out, my buddy put a bunch of sperm confetti in the bag as a joke"

Alright. Got sleep for the first time in a bit and started cleanup.

A big thanks to everyone who helps make this happen thru bringing booze, food, donations, and sponsorships. Y'all make this the best meetup each year.

We shall do it again soon!

Has anyone talked to @Sprouty. I heard he roofied himself, but no one took advantage of him. Just wanna make sure he gets home safely.

When do I get my payroll check?

I think I ended up at 51 hours...LOL!

Thanks to @Josh Kifer and all the sponsors. Thanks again to @acezag for running point on the Airbnb.

Here are some fun chips from Josh posted below. The chip sets and food were all fantastic! But, at the end of the day it's about quality people. I would encourage anyone on the fence to make it to a meetup. COTS is an easy in and out from the airport and Boise is a very chill city. There are plenty of hidden gem food and coffee spots to check out. The mountainscapes visible everywhere as a backdrop to the downtown skyline are beautiful...and big puffy, billowing clouds I feel like I sadly haven't seen for a long time.

The middle seat got filled by a nice lady who is a corrections officer in the Idaho prison system. She and her girlfriends were on their way to Miami for a cruise. We may be able to arrange a tour of the prison next year.
