Northwest Gimpfest Lunch in Portland, OR

Is that what it was?  I though it was just all the heat from the dryers in the basement  while I was doing the laundry – as you all were lunching.   First time my ears were on fire down there this time of year.  Yup, must have been the talking. — Nann remove the Gator cheer to email me I like nonsense; it wakes up the brain cells. – Dr Suess

ROFL probably so!  I am an aquaholic with no interest in the 12 step process. Visit my website: http://www.mzuschlag.com

Response:

I am so jealous.   I love Portland.  And to meet all of you face to face would have been awesome.  But I DO know you.  I know your hearts.  And that is more important.  Perhaps someday.  Perhaps in JULY? Char "Remember, I’m pulling for ya’.  We’re all in this together."  Red Green

Response:

That would be WONDERFUL, Char!!!!  I will be in Maryland end of May, down in Coos Bay, OR for graduation of a grandson first week of June and then last week of July and first week of August will be traveling but almost any other time I will be here.  The restaurant we met at was super about just letting us sit and visit and not bothering us.  I was impressed. — DeLores Wilson Hillsboro, OR

Oh, cool!  More photos!  (We east-coast’ers have to take our excitement where we can get it amidst all the snow and rain.) — Nann remove the Gator cheer to email me I like nonsense; it wakes up the brain cells. – Dr Suess

Not to worry, Mary….you’ll notice I only posted 4 of the many photos taken with my camera. I’m glad you got such a good one of KC. The one I took was totally dark. Kelly C.;o)

Rachel did a great job of the group shot.  I wish she had taken one with mine.  – MZ Visit my website: http://www.mzuschlag.com

Response:

She told us it was great!  lol  She made us walk to the back of the building to just the right spot for her to take the picture.  She is a very bright little 8 year old.  Kelly has done an obviously great parenting job. — DeLores Wilson Hillsboro, OR

Anybody that wants a copy of the group photo send me your preferred email addy and I will send out a lightly cropped version. Please put the name you post with in the subject line. If I don’t recognize it, I won’t send the photo. Kelly C.;o)

You are so sweet. I don’t really think I can take a lot of credit for her basic personality. I just focus on the important stuff, like not letting her act like a monkey in public.LOL Rachel is a bright, outgoing, artistic person and is becoming more fun to be with the older she gets. Maybe we can just skip the teen years and get to the good stuff…… Kelly C.;o)

Very cool.  I have never seen Delores or KC-so now I have even more faces to put with spirits- M

Response:

And that is almost the best part. Meeting those you talk with daily and knowing who they are before they tell you, that is the best part. Duckie > Very cool.  I have never seen Delores or KC-so now I have even more faces to > put with spirits- > M
