It was my pleasure to swing by the San Diego airport and pick up Shawn Farquhar and Billy Hsueh before heading to PCAM Convention. Along the way, we stopped for a late lunch at a San Diego institution, Phil's BBQ. We made the baby back ribs disappear!

I had an awesome time at my first PCAM Convention. So much so, we plan to attend the 2024 Convention, which will be held in Victoria, BC. I'm even considering signing up for one of the contests.

I shot a bunch of photos at this year's Convention, concentrating mostly on friends, contests and awards. Those images are available for viewing here:
