a short notice gathering in Boston anyone?

I had a really good time. So nice to meet everyone. I have pix.........shall I send them to you little k? I don't know how to post them on this thread.

But I missed Diane. I got there too late. I got busy with a really important matter and wasn't able to get there as soon as I expected.

Send them to me, I'll send my email via PM. Is it all over?

sure is over for me...

Sorry, guys. But my email account doesn't work with Earthlink in the hotel. I don't know why, but it hasn't worked right all week. I'll send the pix to little k by Monday or Tuesday when I get back home.

A festive evening. I am so glad I went. The group was very compatible. It was such a shock to find people's faces so different than you had pictured them. This was my first gathering so I didn't know what to expect. Lola's legs looked even better than her avatar. I brought some of my hawk pictures and filled everyone who would listen in with some of my history with them. Oh, ok. I tied them to the seats and wouldn't let them go until they'd been thoroughly abused by more hawk knowledge than they could bear.

The hawk knowledge was nifty! Plus we ate, drank and were merry (well, Andrew certainly was). We had folks from 3 New England states come out to see Lola!

Sleepy sleepy sleepy now but am definitely going to put pix in to be developed, some time later today. Much later.

PS Saw a dude talking to the side of a building on Newbury Street. He may have been Slappy.

Now we'll never know....

Good morning jespah. Well it seems you have marvelous recuperative powers. Up and about early in the a.m. Of course there was no moderation needed since Slappy didn't show up.

Is it after 8am already? Wow ....what a night!

Partied with a bunch of good-looking women, drank more than I usually do...

...and woke up confused in a strange place!

(more later)

The hawk pix and knowledge were fascinating. (And not only did bobsymth not tie me to my chair, he also didn't even see my legs.) But I left without paying my share of the bill. I need to take care of this right away. Who do I owe for this? More later.

Good morning Lola. Had to let the cat out of the bag. I really had them wondering. No I have to admit she was a perfect lady (d..m).

The hawks are awsome and the falcons beautiful! There was a lot of leaning and straining to see Bob's photos.

Good morning LittleK. Thanks for the kind words. I enjoyed myself immensely. What a good group.

Mornin'! I just wish I could have stayed longer. Also, maybe we can all picnic on the commons next time - it's much easier to talk that way.

Hey, did anybody see me last night? I have this blank spot in my memory bank. Seem to recall having been attacked by a gyrfalcon.

Dear Merry Andrew none of my gyrfalcons would do such a dastardly deed. They gave me their word each and every one.

I saw you Merry Andrew, even though we didn't get a chance to speak. I was disappointed, but I understood that you had to leave. Next time................

Ah yes, a fine time had by all I believe.
Twas grand to see Diane and Lola again..very unfortunate not to be at the same time but...perhaps next time. Was nice to see new faces as well! And to see Merry Andrew after so many years....just grand fine sir, thank you for sharing your time with us, perhaps next time you can stay a bit longer.
There were a great many photos taken....but, most were with the ability to edit/delete...gotta love that!!
The food was fabulous....about time I went to that place, I think I might even go again sometime Actually the amount of leftovers will have me virtually visiting for a while.
I dont think there was enough time to spend talking to each person though, we certainly have to try to do something weekendy and get a longer day to help with that at some point. A bit of musical chairs helped though...always does!
I had a lovely T ride home escorted by two strong men (fishin and bobsmyth) so, although I did not see the guy talking to the building...I would have been safe if I had. And I found out great and fascinating things about hawks and other life adventures which always makes a T ride interesting..other than the guy sleeping on the train and all that.
Wondering though now....jjorge.....where'd you go to end up in a strange place...huh? did you only make it to the old homestead and not all the way home perhaps?
Did all make it home safe and sound? Hope so...or to at least some destination in good spirits I hope...thanks to all who travelled far and wide and even thanks to those who just took a short jaunt....I dont think there was a window for Slappy to press up against though...or some people upstairs got quite a visit. hummm...perhaps Slappy was the guy talking to the building...trying to fake us out

Dude speaking to a building? That was probably me. I speak to the trees, too.


But they don't listen to me.

chez Seal, perhaps September...

Stay tuned for further announcements...

Yeah! That was one of my favorite gathering SP!
