On August 24 last year, many of us gathered in NYC for Wetstock and I'm so glad we had the chance to get together in person. Thanks for the memories!

Here are some photos from the event, including photos of @Larry Weingarten's beautiful water heater collection.

    Interesting photos.....looked like a good time...probably could have continued for a few days.

    However, is there anyway the "Wallies" could be ID'ed.
    I can recognize only 5 people in the pictures.

    Having been on the Wall for nearly 10 years, I have always been curious of what the person's comment I read or may correspond with looks like.
    Just their Wallie name would suffice.

    Well I must’ve been in the wrong place at the wrong time because I’m not in one of those pics lol. But here is a pic of the wife and I on the train in Penn station on the way home.

    This is me with my lovely wife. She decided to dye her hair with the various color representations of cancers we have had, and I think it actually looks pretty good.
    This was a really fun event, but not nearly long enough to be able to talk to everyone. I am thinking like a three day event....
    Rick, and Tanya

    And it was very many years ago when there was a Wetstock in Minneapolis. I had the pleasure of meeting a number of Wallies of those days and moving between the various discussion tables to learn about many things water, heat and trade related. Ken Secor held court about billable methods like time and materials verses quotes for service. HotRod and many other good people were there to provide advice and points of view on everything. Before I went, I asked Dan if it was ok to have an OSHA guy there and he made me feel so welcome as did all the folks I met that day. The Wall is filled with wonderful, knowledgeable and friendly people and it's great that it's survived and matured to what it is today. Dan you have obviously placed your trust in good hands with Erin.

    All the best to everyone.
    Very retired, Larry
