Well, we had a grand old time yesterday Dakota Red kindly offered his home for our mini-fest, and what started off as a little party for searcher (our UK guest of honor) became somewhat more than that We'd planned to hang around until 6 or 7 pm, but ended up yakking till 10 (ahh, but the gift of gab some people have LOL).
In alphabetical order, our group included: bikerchic, blueyes, Bruce and Dorian Baker, Buster and wifey, Carmel, Dakota Red, goshawk, Lost Diamond, onacruse, Princess and Steve (and Steve's mom and a family friend), searcher, seven006, songmistress, and VeniceIT.
Carmel brought some delicious salmon for the barbie, and we even got searcher to have a taste. We overlooked the fact that Brits prefer to eat fish in the form of fish and chips We had an impromptu b-day party for searcher and songmistress--when we brought out the cake, everything was fine until somebody started to sing Happy Birthday...the words just sorta stuck in our throats, and we looked around at each other like a bunch of dubbies LOLOLOLOL. Princess, Steve, mom and friend showed up in the late afternoon, fresh from a 2-day 200-mile bicycle event: some people really know how to crash a party
seven006 offered to PhotoShop the pics, and here's where we desperately need your opinions. Can seven006 be TRUSTED?? He slyly indicated that he might indulge in a little bit of "editing." Do you all think he's capable of exercising some restraint over his otherwise quite mischievous character????
