These things really begin months before the fish is served. This one is Ron's idea from months ago.
The short of it is we are trying to help out Layton Kor. The results so far is our effort is baring fruit. And fish....
So far I have directly received over $1000 to go towards the cause. This doesn't include fish fees. On top of that there is a short list of "folks" that will match/exceed that number.
My budget it balanced - at this point anyone that shows up and pays their fee for fish - it ALL goes to Layton. The balanced part makes me personally rather happy.
Additional to this we have a variety of items which will be auctioned off. I might start another thread on this but I will point out we have a large Metolius haul bag in really nice shape, a couple pairs of shoes, some DVDs, and some hooks/pins that once belonged to The Bird.
Anywho.... the fish arrived today. And I'm fully and completely stocked up on booze.
Here's the haul bag:
the gear (not those shoes):
I now have the horrible duty of having to dig into the fish in those boxes and ensure they meet SushiFest Standards (SFS).

Damn it, I need to apologize now for not being able to go. I've been ordered into bed rest and for some reason driving is off limits. The family won't even let me climb, vacuum, sweep the porch, etc. I'm actually bored for the first time in my life. I didn't know that was possible.

Looks like you are getting prepared, Nature. The big draw back to all the Sushi Fests was waiting in the wolf pack at the table. I never got my "all you can eat" or $30 worth. Too hard to fend off all the free loaders eating my sushi. See ya all there.

Yeah, that was a brutal event for me. It was hard to feed everyone alone. My other helper bailed and it crushed me. Though... there were not any freeloaders I don't think....
We've got two other rollers as well as another helper in the kitchen.
you can eat twice as much as you can all eat this time around ;-)
