Do you guys have meetups? The Rush online community does quite a lot. I've been to ten in the last fifteen months, including RushCon last July in Toronto. I've met about a hundred online friends, and they're all excellent. Some I've met numerous times and even spent a week with the couple who admins my home board in December.

I just got back from a two-day ski party at Mt Baker in Washington with some of my closest new friends. I actually know the host of this party from years ago when he lived in this town, and we found each other on a board a couple of years ago. These are some of my friends. LaFellaStrangiato (the host), Rushgrrrl (Portland), Supermouse (Toronto), Hemisteve (Dallas) and me, Grandpa Grizz. Yes we all traveled from afar just to hang out with each other for a couple of days, and it was sweet!
