I never got around to posting my day 2 report from the RTDA. In it's stead, here's some pictures from the CAO show on Monday night. I think a great time was had by all, despite the weather closing in and moving folks inside. This involved a few logistic problems, not the least of which was funneling people down a narrow hallway and trapping them before the destination was ready, but for those who toughed it out, there were rewards.

The CAO party introducing the new Vision series of cigars was held outdoors Monday night at the Hard Rock Casino & Hotel's pool.

In addition to the dancers that were mingling with the crowd and doing their thing around the pool, CAO also had some "signature" girls show up. From left there was the BraTalia girl, The Soprano's girl and the new Vision girl; each attired (sort of) in theme with the cigar of the same name.

When the weather outside turned too dangerous due to approaching thunderstorms (that provided some welcome relief from the heat and a spectacular light show), the party moved inside. Here's a shot overlooking the dance floor...

Or course, what CAO party would be complete without the Flavourettes. Here's Chad with them...

Jeff's a long way from the Midwest right now<G>.

Ron looks a little uncomfortable. Not sure why, they all seemed nice enough.

And leave it to Peter to really get into the spirit of things!

And thanks to CAO for all the pictures!
