Well this year my flight here was about 4 1/2 hours - non stop. No bugs this time. But I leave tomorrow nite so we'll see about on the way home.

I had this great post last nite but it wouldn't "take".
I'll repeat the first part of it tho b/c it was too cute.

T'was 8:00pm the nite after the PetTalk BBQ and not a creature was stirring except a New Mexican and Ohioan.
Gini and Kelly were taking naps and that left Tonya and I to amuse ourselves.
Soon after 830 tho Gini got up and Kelly woke up and we went out to a fabulous dinner at Maggiano's.
Today is shopping

It is a sad day - in less than 25 minutes we will be leaving for the airport to drop off Tonya.

Staci, Kelly and Tonya have been staying here - and it has been so much fun having my "girls" with me.

Rascal won't leave them alone!! Annie got into the act and Staci said that she was able to touch Emma's tail.........WOW!

We are very sorry Gini- but we hope after partying for days you all have more time to upload the pics

Its almost time for the worst part of the BBQ...the ending.

We still have many more hours with Stace, Gini and I (Kelly)...they're "resting their eyes" and I believe Tonya will be taking off in about 15 minutes...I'm just catching up here.

Its been SO GREAT having everyone out here and spending time together. While we missed those that aren't able to be here, you're all here in spirit. It was great talking to those that called us on the phone!!

Hmm..usually its ME sleeping late or napping...ha ha.

After mom and Stace awake, we're going to Shutters, a gorgeous restaurant in Venice/Santa Monica, so Stace can see/touch the ocean...she hasn't seen that yet.

OK, off to check on the orangies and the porch kitties! They're sooo cute! Rascal has been the PUURRRRFECT host! He's such a love and just jumps right up on your lap when he feels he needs to...so cute!

Hugs, Kelly

Yuppers, Miz Zipp took off about 3:40 pm Eastern time and according to the
Southwest Airlines site - they're going to be 15 minutes EARLY getting into
Albuquerque, NM!

After an hour lay-over, Zipp leaves New Mexico and flies over to Midland, Texas;
then hops into the Zippy-mo-bile and drives back to Hobbs, New Mexico.

Drive SAFE, Zippy-Kat!!

Should be some HAPPIE FurKids in Hobbs tonight!

For those of you who were'nt aware, Slick (aka Slice), did the sweetest thing by sending us all a care package with Canadian goodies.

I THOUGHT that my package included a little scented candle in a glass container.

It wasn't until I bothered to look at it more closely last night that I realized that she had sent me laundry soap.
