The meet was wonderful and the gals (and Jan's dh) were wonderful company, as usual. I didn't go to the casino for I hate to loose money, lol. The meeting with Mindy was wonderful. She is such a hoot and I wish we had more time together, Maybe next time. The hotel was very nice with an atrium where we spent a lot of time. On Friday night someone had a birthday party for their brother and a lot of kids were there swimming and, well, making lots of noise. No problems with any of my flights so that was a blessing.


Bern, I guess the 09 meet will be in Philly. I want to have one here in early spring in 2010. That gives me plenty of time to save up after going to the Outer Banks NC this fall with my in-laws. Yes, I am going back up there to have fun at the beach. It would be so neat if we all could get a house up there for a meet BUT everything big enough has many stairs, two and three stories tall. Not to good for some. Also I'm not even sure if the OB has many cabs, oh they must. But they do have many places to shop, lol.


Time to go, I hope everyone is well. Mare, get well soon. Love and


BIG HUGS...Free

Hi Free


I am so glad you are safely home again from the meet and I sure wish I had been able to be there. Would have been more fun than the hospital I am sure. LOL


I am slowly getting better. I too am back home at last!!


Love

That does sound like a great place for a meet, no elevators?

Free glad you had a great time with no travel problems. I've heard the Outer Banks are great! DD vacations there occasionally and I know what you mean about all those stairs. Guess with storm surge during hurricanes its a necessary evil. I'm honored and excited to host the 09 meet and will look forward to your meet in 10.
Hugs, Bernie

It was so nice to see you last week as well as those I hadn't met in person before and of course my Dindylulu roomie. Found out that Jan's dh had even more in common with my dh than I'd remembered. Those parallel lives we live get to be dodododo strange. I've made it home too from seeing the kidalids in Michigan. 4 yo Sara is so tiny and so very, very fast! 15 yo Sean has grown to be taller than me already. And 5 mo Sophia looks more like her grandma than her momma may appreciate when she sees my baby pics. They believe that Typhoid mary came to visit them. I took my cough over there and stayed a distance from the baby but now they say they've been infected. So TM grandma says they can be the infecters next time. Geeze!


Oh! The possibly best thing that happened to me after the meet is that when I was waiting for my flight out of O'Hare, they asked for volunteers to fly at a later time. Since dh wasn't home (he's spending the weekend with his dad and setting him up with a new computer) and Bear was boarded, I did it and now I have a free round trip United ticket that I'll probably use to go up to see my Montana crazies errr I mean sisters
