I was expecting more myself. Visitors are welcome anytime anyway. For those who made it way out west, thanks for stopping by! My Bluespots enjoyed the attention!

I had a great day! Probably only about 20-25 people, but I really enjoyed it. Thanks to everyone that made the rounds.

Slower than last year by a third, but I enjoyed being able to sit and talk to people this year instead of missing most last year. Total at 5 pm 82

#79 & 80 were the Morrills 
After them we got a young couple and then (lastly) a family of 3 -
The last family left exactly at 5PM - no one since, so I guess we are done...
If anyone wants to make an "after hours" visit, we'll be home!

Interestingly enough, it seems that the homes that were (geographically) the closest together got the least foot traffic...?
Also, quite a few visitors remarked that they got wind of the Tour via those KSL ads, and only about a dozen of the people who came to my home were WMAS members..
The furthest one who came from south of me was John Hill (Spanish Fork); The Morrills (WVC) were the furthest from north of here; and Jason (DFOprah) and his family were furthest away total coming all the way from Tooele

I thought today was awesome. We got like 25 people but we were able to sit down and chat and really have a relaxing, fun day and got to meet lots of cool people. Of the people that came only two of them were people we already knew, most of them were just getting started and were looking for help. I even think we convinced two of the families to join the club  .

We ended with 49 people and a few kids from the hood.
Slow in the am - busy from 3-5:30 p.m.
It was a good day overall, many club members came over and some people interested in setting up a tank had a million Qs.
That's what it's all about

Our biggest crush was from 10 - noon... at one point I had 17 people in my Living Room 
But it is kind of nice when they come only a few at a time...
Plus, I had 3 people bring cameras, and take pics... and 1 guy brought a notebook to take notes  !

Sounds like everyone had a great time and hopefully a lot of newcomers learned a lot and became hooked on the hobby!
On a side note if anyone is interested in seeing our setup or organizing a southern utah reef tour, let us know any time.
congrats everyone!

Bob,
Did the Idaho crowd not make it to your place? I went to Suzy's after your place and they were there. Seems like a long way to drive and not stop by your place when they were so close  . |

Nope... but that's OK, I had so many people I really can't complain
Although it does seem odd to drive the 230 - 240 miles each way from Idaho Falls to Suzy's... but not go an extra 9 - 10 miles to my place 
I guess that can be next years goal?
