So. California Picnic

[gini]

What, Slick??? Are you going somewhere?

Oh, oh, better clean up the house - Rascal, Annie, Emma, PICK UP YOUR TOYS!! How many times do I have to tell you???

[RICHARD]

A light wrap is a good idea.

Going down to the OC- to see some peeps
Trade some stories and grab some eats.
Folks from all over, gonna be there-
Just follow the thread, don't be scared.
gonna tell jokes, gonna see some cats.
Down in the OC, is where it's at
See y'all there in a few days-
gonna sign off, that's all I gots to say..


Oh, you said WRAP, not RAP!

[catland]

Sounds like you guys are going to have a great time. Have fun everyone, but don't get too tired out - you'll only have 4 months to recuperate before the next big event.

[NoahsMommy]

Getting excited!!!

I'm planning on attending - just as long as my body cooperates.

Can't wait!!

[gini]

Miss Kelly, it is your SPIRIT that we love.........not that we don't love your little body too..............♥♥♥

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

How many more sleeps, Slick?

[slick]

I so look forward to seeing you Kelly, sweetie!!! We must set some time aside to "ketchup".

Debbie, it's down to hours now. In 24 hours I'll be flying high so to speak.

[Cincy'sMom]

Have a safe flight, Slick! See you in 74-ish hours!!

[slick]

Thanks CM.

I'm leaving for the airport. Up, up and aaawwwwwaaayyyyyy!!!

[Randi]

Isn't this exiting! Have a safe flight, Vickie - you must be in the air now. You could have mentioned the flight no. so we could track you!

Give Gini a big hug the minute you get there! And have fun!!

[Edwina's Secretary]

I'll be heading for SoCal in just a few hours! I have had a great time but I need to get ready for the picnic!!!!!

[gini]

Well that's funny - what a coincidence - I will be going to the airport too in just a couple of hours

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Thanks CM.

I'm leaving for the airport. Up, up and aaawwwwwaaayyyyyy!!!

Has anyone noted the time on this post?! 6:33 am Central time, which means 4:33 am Pacific time!!! I know Slick will be too excited to sleep on the plane so Gini, you might want to make sure the couch has some comfy blankets on it because somebody might just crash this afternoon. Then again.....probably not. I know I'd be too excited to sleep, hell, you can always sleep when you get back home.

Once again I'm just so jealous. Sure wish I could be there.

Sara, you're on your way to SoCal? Don't you live in SoCal? Must be out of town on work.....

[gini]

Slick's bed is all made up - ready when she is.............

When she arrives I am taking her to the Ashes and Snow exhibit that is here in Santa Monica until May. Then we will have lunch and work our way back to my home. (all about animals)

Tomorrow we drive down to Sara's - pick her up and we are going to the San Diego Zoo to see the Pandas!!! (all about animals)

Then we will drive back to Sara's and I finally will get to meet Edwina and Eddie! (all about animals).

Sara was out of town on business. I wonder if she has told Don yet???

[slick]

Well, I made it here in sunny Cali. The flight was a smooth one and I told the pilot to put the pedal to the medal. We arrived 10 min early but took awhile to get my luggage.

The Ashes & Snow exhibit is absolutely awesome. For me, very intense and emotional. I encourage all of you to attend if the show is anywhere near where you live.

We then had lunch at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. right on Santa Monica beach. Hey, we Canucks don't have beaches like that. The sand went on and on and on.

So after some shopping we are now back home where I was greeted by Rascal. Annie looked at me but wouldn't approach. Have not seen Emma yet. Anyway I'm going to change clothes now. I dressed for Vancouver this morning.....
