I am SO sorry you had to go through that. I fear we may be facing that soon with our dog, Maggie. The cats should have quite a few years left in them, I hope! Kisses to you sweetie.

i wish there was film in my camera for one last photo of our cat, tiffany.
we got her almost 18 years ago, when our youngest was in kindergarten.
now he's married.

(((Joy)))
That pic makes me homesick for Joy and Steve!
((((Mulan & Big Red)))) Mulan, thank you for your kind comments. Doug and I also felt like we bonded with you. Sitting up on the balcony, feeling that nice breeze, chatting about anything and everything...it was great.
And YES I knew you were teasing all of us the next morning about being noisy. Honestly...I didn't even know you were upstairs! I knew Bruce was asleep downstairs...and I found out after I took my stuff upstairs that Waiting and Hubby were sleeping...but somehow I never knew you guys were up there (the house is huge!) So anyway, I'm sorry we were noisy (it was mostly Venice and Safe4kids ) and I just enjoy teasing people, so I had to tease you too.
I look forward to seeing you again...maybe at a future FreedomFest!!!! Woohoo.

have any of you been stuck in a rut when filling out a job application when it came to filling out that dreaded portion that requires you to:.
list at least 3 persons who are not related to you who have known you for 5 or more years.. .
it's that moment that you can't list all your "friends" in the borg, because they are not going to give you a true reference regarding what kind of person you are.
Hey, I volunteer myself to be used as a reference for you Somebody!!!!!
Email me and I'll provide you the pertinent info. I mean, I've known you for several years now, haven't I?
Angharad, I'd do the same for you sweetie.
Tracy
and i thought i would share.

hope this works.
Awwwww, what a cutie.
Enjoy them every day...that's the best advice I know of for children!

Glad you guys all made it home safely. Joy and Steve have an absolute perfect setup for freedom fests, do they not?
I enjoyed meeting you so much. I can't wait for the next one!
And Megadude, I don't think my dessert was any more fattening than your chocolate martinis!!! woohoo

Miss you guys too, hug Just2 for me, ok?

HAHAHA Simon,
I should have guessed you would be the one to pick up on the "blonde babes" reference. You keep this up and in just a few short years, we'll be calling you a dirty old man!!!
Sorry, there are no bikini pics to share. Since Freepeace was taking most of the pics, and he is a man of exquisite taste and refinement, he would never take pics of babes in bikinis and post them without their permission. Now, maybe someone else took some and would like to share??? Just for the benefit of poor Simon?
Tracy
here is a picture of my little granddaughter.
she was out in the yard with me the other day and i just had to take a few pictures.
she is sweet and spoiled rotten.
Awwww Ken,
She's absolutely adorable, I can't believe how much she's grown since the last pics you posted.
Hmmmm, I wonder who is spoiling her rotten??? Keep up the good work, grandpa.

OH MY GOD!!!! I had SO much fun talking with everyone, I can't even tell you.
First, I want to thank Joy2bfree and Just2laws. What awesome hosts. The minute we arrived we felt comfortable and at home, that is a gift you two possess, and it was much appreciated.
Dantheman....what a sweetheart! I so enjoyed getting to know you better...(to Aztec who mentioned how cute he is, he is even CUTER in person), he has a Tom Cruise kinda smile going on!
Waiting and her husband were so cool...she wasn't the least bit intimidating and she has this charming southern accent, very lady like and dignified. Her husband had some scary AND funny motorcycle stories to tell.
Mulan and Dave were very easygoing and likeable...except for the first morning when Mulan chewed us all out for being so noisy down in the hot tub the night before! hehehe
Bruce and Dorian and Venice...what a family! Bruce is so quiet and dignified...and Dorian and Venice talk and laugh non stop...talk about some FUN party girls. Woohoo!
b_ster was such a sweetheart, helping out with the dishes and helping everyone with their computer hookups. Flower was a very quiet lady at first, very easy to talk with, and her son is ADORABLE!
Megadude was a little different from what I expected. I had kidded around with him so much in chat, I thought he would be a real character. Instead, he's a very deep thinker and wanted to interrupt our party time with questions about the meaning of life!!! Seriously, he was great to talk with, and he makes the best damn margaritas and chocolate martinis ever. I highly recommend inviting him to ANY future fests!
Jade and Roo were there too, what sweethearts. I'm sorry I didn't get more time to talk with them, but they made our beach fest complete by being the blonde babes in bikinis in the hot tub!! Gotta have blonde babes, right?
Barb and Joe Anderson, what down to earth people! Barb has so many fascinating stories to tell, I needed a weekend just with her! Joe is quite a talker too, when you get him going (and when he mistakes the long island iced tea for the regular tea !!) HAHAHAHA, I thought Joy would never stop teasing him about the whole gallon of iced tea she made just for him, but he kept drinking the other.
Last but not least, Joy and Just's son Seth was there, what an awesome young man he is! Really sharp and has a lot on the ball. He didn't mind all these strange people invading his home, and he took the time to show the kids how to do tricks with his kite. Their daughter popped in too. Their daughter is so sweet and pretty...
Thanks again everyone for an awesome weekend! It was well worth the 8 1/2 hour drive. I will do it again as soon as we are invited......(hint, hint)
Tracy
just so that i can prepare properly (spiritual food, that is
if you dont want to post it here, please send me an e-mail:
ill give all you sweet brothers and sisters until this saturday, april 12th to let me know otherwise the door will be closed and there will be no more lamp oil to share.
I already emailed you, but I felt bad that your post was looking so lonely
We will be there, I am 99% sure Doug will make it too, depending on travel plans for him the week before, but I will definitely come, and am looking forward to all of the "upbuilding fellowship"!
