This is absolutely the GREATEST post. By adding pictures you HUMANIZE the quitting experience. I thank you so much for sharing this photo. These are REAL people that have REALLY quit!!! WOW, Thank you so much...it is exactly the incentive I need right now in my quit!
Penitent and I live some 11 miles apart. We met up in the summer. Was great to speak in person to somebody from the site!
Mr Ed :)

This is very nice to see - it is indeed humanizing.

LOL.... Nice to have you and your sense of humor back. Aren't you glad you quit smoking?!?!?!
There is nothing quite like meeting other quitters. Don't forget to leave the picture at the other place ;)

I just sent an email to the group. Anyone else interested, let us know and we'll try to connect on the SSC IM so we can plan a trip!
Thanks for the inspiration Joe. :) Maybe more of us can meet!

It was great Rusty! The boys still talk about the planes. You were almost at a year and I wasn't even to six months yet. Look at us now! AMAZING!
We need a repeat. How about St. Simons Island in November. I really want to meet up with Islandgirl again too. The three of us would have a great time.
Let me know what you think.

I had the wonderful opportunity this afternoon to meet two all time great quitters... many of you with less than a year here might not recognize them, but they spent many an hour here during their early quit times. We had a grand time sharing stories and Lolly kept UFO and myself in stitches with her great stories!
Lolly is Scottish and just listening to her accent was a hoot!! It's a shame many more of us can't meet up.
