Third Annual California BBQ!!!

[slick]

so others would be able to access a website in order to see the action

Uh oh......does this mean I have to be on my best behaviour?? I don't think we really want to record EVERYTHING, do we???

Actually, I do think it's a good idea but I'm afraid I can't help you on this one. Just did a google search and came up with this but I'm sure you can find some better pages.

Does anybody know anything about webcams and how to use them?

Yes and yes. Used to have one but a certain black loppie eared bunny chewed the wiring and so it worked spastically; I got tired of it and chunked it almost a year or so ago. I know Yahoo's IM allows for video conferencing. I'm not sure how to set one up on a website. I think geocities(?) might offer that capability. I know ACG&S had one set up (can't remember the host - might've been AOL) for cutie-pie Dudley and Sammy.

I'm saddened you won't be able to attend; I was really looking forward to meeting you.

Darn, I'm sorry it didn't work out, Amy.

Maybe next time??

No quakes, floods or fires in LA? About time!

Nope.
Just high speed car chases, movie star governors and some bitching weather......


We don't do hurricanes out here.

Amy, I know that we p/m'd back and forth, but publically I would like to say that I too am sorry you won't be able to attend the BBQ this year.

Everyone was looking forward to meeting you.

Hope I'm not putting words in WolfLady's mouth, but I think the webconferences she sets up for her work include videoconferencing. Maybe she can help set something up?

[Mystery Guest]

I've looked out my clothes and I just have 4 sleeps before I leave. I cannot wait to see you all.

So exciting.

Can't wait to meet you MG!

Hi everyone, I'm on US soil!

What a trip it was! I was in 4 different airports in one day. The Air France flight was delayed, so I missed my connection to Orange County - however, I met a really nice girl in Chicago who had come from London, and also missed her flight, we had a great 3 hours together!

One of the few days that Randi will feel completely awake at 7.20

Barbara, it may be hard to believe, but I've been up BEFORE 7.00! lol! And here comes the best part of going to bed ..... Eddie has been visiting! He came up in bed to me the very first night!! Both Edwina and Eddie are absolutely darlings!! But you won't believe what Eddie did yesterday late evening, I'm sure Sara will post about it when she has calmed down.

I'm having the time of my life here in the US, that's why I haven't posted till now. Sara and I have been busy floating around in the whirlpool, and been out shopping. I can hardly believe how lucky I am to be here! Sara and Don are spoiling me so, and I just love their house!!

Yesterday, we drove up to LA to visit Gini, she is so sweet! We went to have lunch in the most scenic setting by Santa Monica pier. After that we toured LA.

Well, this is all for now, Sara and I will go for a walk up the hill now. Later today, I'll get a ride with Don on his Harley.


Looking forward to see you all!!

[Killearn Kitties]

Randi, it sounds fantastic! I'm so pleased you are having such a good time.

[NoahsMommy]

Oh Randi, that sounds LOVELY!!!! I'm so glad you're having such fun, you deserve it.

What a sweetie Eddie is! Can't wait to hear the full story!

Just a few days and I'll get to give you a REAL hug! YAY!!!

For now *hugs*

Earlier I promised that I would be bringing some coffee with me. I wish I had more to offer but when I went to visit my sister two months ago, I ended up giving her 9 lbs!

Right now I have two lbs of Breakfast blend, one is claimed by Tonya (Zippy) Any takers for the other?

I have a pound of Colombia Narino Supremo which is my favorite mild coffee. It's still flavorful yet not overpowering.

Gini, I'm not sure if you are a coffee drinker but I have a really nice bag of Guatelamlan that was only offered for a short time, it's a nice smooth coffee goes great with caramel or chocolate.

I also have some Viennese blend which is a blend of Latin American beans, very smooth and rich.

I also still have two more markouts avaliable before I head up there. So if you have a favorite let me know and I will be sure to get it for you.

The reason why I'm asking ahead of time is so that if you need it ground you can tell me what kind of filter you are using so I can get it to the proper grind. If not then I'll bring them whole bean and any local Starbucks will grind them for free.

Me, me, me! I wanted some too. I think I had requested breakfast blend earlier in this thread, but I'll take whatever you have left! I'm such a starbucks junkie!


I can't wait to see everyone! Only 6 more days!
**hugs**

No problem! I have a pound of breakfast blend with your name on it!

Everyone sounds so excited. I'm happy for all of you and wish I was coming too.

Randi, I'm so glad that you are having a wonderful time!
