Why thank you doublejj. No offense was meant whatsoever regarding my comments, I was under the impression that these BBQ's were something else all together. I have tons of respect for what you are doing in providing for great times and the opportunity for like minded individuals to gather when they would maybe otherwise not be able to or feel comfortable. Many thanks are in order for the undertaking of organizing, funding, hosting, and being responsible for the events.
I guess Im just a bit spoiled when it comes to MMJ get togethers, and didnt know that it wasnt an RIU sponsored event (or official event I suppse). It has been quite some time since I have been truly involved on the forum as much as I would really like, and yes its mainly due to very difficult times indeed, and because of that I had the wrong impression/idea of what the BBQ events are. My apologies doublejj , and anyone else that took offense on his behalf.
