2002 UK Trek with the meeting of Manifesto Fans

I (Tara Maginnis) and my shop head-sidekick Lorraine Pettit have just returned from our trip to The UK and other locations (San Francisco and Las Vegas).  During our trip we met up with a bunch of folks who have heard of us through the Manifesto and did assorted activities with them.  Here we will share our trip photos and some of what we learned and saw.
