To the Florida gathering,
Although I may not have appeared happy, I throughly enjoyed myself. I have some issues that affect my outward appearance. Less mature folks tend to read negatives into my behavior.
I was especially pleased with the day/evening we spent at Rae and Misti's apartment. It was a comfortable setting. The discussion was uplifting. Love and respect filled the room.
What a terrific thread and a great looking bunch of people! Mapleleaf, I know you were addressing the people who were at the gathering, but the pictures of you are very good. In fact, you all look good. It looks like you had a wonderful time!
That's the bottom line; that all of you enjoyed yourselves. What more can we ask for in this world of today? c.i.
ehBeth, it's better than that! I enjoyed every moment and I'll miss them terribly when they leave.
I wouldn't have missed this for the world, what an experience!
I feel that my life is so much richer after meeting this wonderful group, and it is:)
I am already looking forward to next time!
Gautam, thanks! You were missed because we all thought it would have been fantastic if you had made it here!
Husker, next time, you be here, okay?
c.i., we had great fun with your test, did you notice how studious they all were?
And the T-shirts you sent went over real big, that was so sweet of you:)
We want you here next time too, okay?
Mapleleaf, so glad to see you made it home safely.
I'm so glad you enjoyed yourself, because we enjoyed your company immensely.
Hugs to "B"! Tell her next time she must accompany you:)
Awsome pics Misti, thanks so much :-D
Welcome Gezzy, it's neat when you watch it as a slide show.
That's what I did and I loved all the photo's. It was also great to get updates as the gathering was going along :-D
I do hate missing parties!
The party is not quite over yet, folks.....
As I type, we are patiently awaiting the arrival of Roger and Phoenix. Urs and bigdice are at Universal Studios today, but hopefully they'll make it back in time for dinner at Mom's favorite restaurant ~ 'Mangroves'.
After that, we're going to visit 'Rumrunners', a favorite local bar. Gonna see if I can't interest Roger in a game or four of pool.
More pictures coming.....
Oh cool. This is great. Tell everyone I said hello :-D
... and say "Guten Appetit" to Urs and bigdice as well!
