Thanks to all of you who helped make my #FWA2019 experience the BEST EVER!!! My fourth Furry Weekend was like a dream... From Jose "Toad" picking me up last Tuesday and gorging on Waffle House, from visiting the FWA Offices in Sandy Springs on Wednesday, even helping the staff move props onto moving vans, the unboxing ceremony of Joe Bear after Opening Ceremonies on Thursday, and spending the weekend suiting up and moving around like a grizzly bear on the con floor, to The Mystery Skulls concert that just blew me away - meeting and getting to know the GOH's Sean Chiplock and Caraid alongside my many friends who helped bring this all together. It wasn't the partying that made the 'magic', and I had no sex (believe it). It was my FRIENDS here in the South that truly made me feel at home and treated me like family (and a few friends that came in from Southern California too like Bodker, Growly and Whiskey Foxtrot). It's your friends that help make the magic come alive, and those are my friends I would take a bullet for. These last four years have truly changed my life - it has made my life much more fulfilling (Lest, I cannot forget how I value those who've been with me for decades - like my best friend Jon Chauvie in Utah and my college friend and old confidant Jose Tingson among others who are non-furry - I LOVE YOU ALL!!!) To my family who are spread out in three different countries, I love you all very much as well. This weekend has cemented my love for this fandom and those outside as well. Thanks for being with me and I hope to see all of you soon!! Joe G
