Our Sat. lunch took place along side Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg. Couldn't quite get the whole Lake name in one photo, though :eek:

A nice PT picture of (left to right) Sandra (Freedom), the Mayor's Dad, Karen & Paul (the Mayors), me (Pat, cyber-sibes), and JoJoe (cybers' dad). Notice the little angel that snuck into the picture over Karen's head? Must be the one that helps with all those PT prayers!

And here is a good one JoJoe took:

Hey, no problem - I used to do a great bunny impression - before I got braces, anyway!

Yay, thanks for sharing pictures!

No pictures of the lake itself? you may be wondering? Well ...

There's nothing that looks quite so cold
As a frozen lake in January
Many shades of steely grey to pewter and ash
Bare trees, sketched in black along the frozen edge
And snow drifting across the frigid lake surface
Scouring clean any trace of color, of life ...

Shivering yet? Pour yourself a cup of something warm
And count your blessings, including heating systems!

[shais_mom]

wow great pics! :)
That's a loooooooong name! :eek:
Pat I didn't even recognize JoJoe without his beard!

David looks really TALL....
I'm not really that tall, it's just that Donna was a little shorter (and much cuter!) than me!

[kimlovescats]

What great pictures! It looks like everyone had a wonderful time! Thanks for sharing your visit with us!!! :D

[gini]

There is nothing quite like a get together of Pet Talkers - they are just the nicest people on earth. Thanks for sharing such great pictures - brrrrr........it sure did look cold.

I am glad that Donna and David finally got to meet each other as well.

[Randi]

The sunset pics are gorgeous!

[Husky_mom]

Great gettogether........finally Donna and David meet......how cute and adorable.......

I´ve been coming back and forth and still can´t figure how in the world do you say the lake´s name? :eek: ........really a tongue twister haha
can you imagine telling someone.."go near the lake (place name here)......" haha by the time you are done saying the name it will be hours past LOL

lovely view......

¡¡¡I want to attend a meeting!!! (makes note to herself)

It's easy to say, just long. It's pronounced "Chog-agog Man-Chog-agog char-bunna Gun-ga-mog" - the capital letters indication emphasis. And locals, by the way, refer to it as Webster Lake.

[caseysmom]

Karen, is that a native american name?

I must be soooo blonde today.....haha I can´t seem to say it right LOL

smarty locals........Webster Lake.........

[Karen]

Karen, is that a native american name?

Theoretically it's a Nipmuc name, though hard to rpove. The area was Nipmuc territory before Europeans came. The Nipmucs wiped out my hometown (just north of Webster) twice before the "settlers" managed to stay settled.

[davidpizzica]

Karen, I managed to pronounce the name of that lake! Give me a couple of months and I'll get it down pat. Did you say the local kids grow up pronouncing it?!

[cassiesmom]

Thanks for the pictures! :D :D They made me smile.

Me too :)

[Rachel]

Thanks CyberSides for posting these pictures. It gives the rest of us a feeling of being included in the meeting. Everyone looks like they were having a fun time.

[cyber-sibes]

:D So glad you're all enjoying the pics! Karen does an impressive job sayng the name of that lake, I got left in the dust somewhere around the second "agogg"! As for cold...it was like 6 degrees! And that last picture of Donna & David where they look all happy - wanna know a secret? Those smiles were FROZEN on their faces! It's actually their teeth chattering! ;)

Those with the right parents do! My mother's high school history teacher gave extra points on a certain grade if kids could say the name correctly, no stumbling, so we all learned it just in case!

Pat, that actually isn't gray on my beard, it was FROST!

[pitc9]

Wow, the name of that place is Crazy!
I've never heard of it! (although after google-ing it I've found out about it)

Great pictures!
What a happy looking bunch of PT-ers!
Thanks for sharing your gathering pictures with us.
