But I thought Richard was going to be the chaperone/bartender???

[Barbara]

I *wipes tears out of eyes* cannot *tears her hair* come.

[Tonya]

Yay! Count me in! Unless some ungodly thing happens, I'm there. I can't wait to meet you all! Richard, you better make me laugh just as much in person. lol. It's only about 4 hours for me with my driving. I *believe* that my timeshare works for Anaheim and I can get additional discount rooms. I'll call them next week and find out for sure. With all the crap that's going on right now, PM me if it looks like I've forgotten.

I want to come so badly! Wonder if I could work in a trip to Sacramento, then fly down?????? Hmmmmmmmmm....still too early to tell at this point, but I'm going to see in the coming months!!!!

[lbaker]

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running (or flying)
To see you [all] again

Already warned my brother in San Diego to expect another visit from me. I promise KAK, if you take the train south again we wont lose each other this time How can you lose someone on a moving train anyway Would like to rent a car for ease of getting around and not be dependent but driving around LA is not EASE at all for me. I honestly can say that was the best vacation I've had in years! Maybe this time I wont have a broken arm and can actually eat without someone having to cut up my food 6 months and counting!

Slick - don't you mean the "coneperone"?

Gini - I cannot make the flight over, sorry , so I think I will "tackle" Miss Meow and have an Aussie 1st Annual celebrating the Second Annual California BBQ" BBQ ...... and take pics...... and think of you all ..........

Mind you it will be WINTER here ............... so you won't see much of us hidden under the jackets!

........ off to email the Devine Miss M .................

[slick]

Well, we had another meeting of the minds today to try to figure out our holiday time. Because I'm so far behind (I have 30 days for 2003 and 30 for 2004 ) it's been decided that I'm getting the whole month of July off......

Do you think CA would be up to a whole month of Slick????

In your KAL-EE-FORN-EYE-EH?? dreams baby.....

[captain]

gini - Miss M and I will be having a BBQ in honour of your BBQ.

Complete with Vegemite, prawns on the "barbie", and copious amounts of alcohol .............

Not sure where we will have the BBQ - so, will keep you advised!

Ok.. I've requested some time off in for this meeting, so we will see what happens. I've also requested time off for Utah, too, so I might have to pick between the two. We'll have to wait and see!

You pick Utah!

I'd love to come...I haven't been to Cali since I was 5...too many things going on this summer however, so I won't be able to make it. Maybe summer 2005!

Gini, how far of a drive are you from Disneyland?? Sometimes we can get cheap rates for flight and hotel for DL. If you are only say 15 min drive then it's worth me looking into.

[lbaker]

Beware, beware - walk with care
In Anaheim there is - no there there
Disneyland is in Anaheim. That's about it, oh Knotts Berry Farm (big wup). Try the coast For whatever we lose, like a you or a me... it's always ourselves we find at the sea Just my personnal opinion. So you will be renting a car the whole time? Come visit me in San Diego (Mission Beach) the train from LA to San Diego is incredible. "Let's go surfing now, everybody's learning how"

My friends all drive Porsches

[slick]

Hey Laurie, I see you are continuing the song......all together now

Worked hard all my lifetime
No help from my friends
Oh Lord won't you by me a Mercedes Benz.

Very good people

Not sure what I'm going to do yet Laurie; it's too soon to tell but I'll let you know.

[lbaker]

The Lord never did buy Janis a Mercedez Benz. She had to find her own car and in typical Janis fashion. It was an eye-popping, traffic stopping hippiemobile. The 1965 PORSCHE Cabriolet Super C was a classy expression of her lifestyle. Custom painted in psychedelic hues with images of janis and Big Brother on one fender.......... Cry Cry Bayeeeby

[gini]

Good lord, I wake up and you guys are talking about Anaheim,
janis and who knows what else. And I can't get Janis' voice out of my mind wailing for her car. (dear lord, I would like one too).

Let me try to be somewhat polite first and tell Michelle and Nicole that I would give anything if we could all be together in July. Melbourne is such a beautiful city..........but wherever you decide to meet - we will have to coordinate a time and toast each other as Richard recommended.

Tonya - what great news - Modesto isn't around the corner, but at least it is still in California.

Naomi, no wonder you are pulled in all directions - we all love you and Bassett - everyone wants to meet you (I hope we get to).

Now, back to Anaheim - Laurie is absolutely correct - aside from The Head Mouse - there isn't a lot there - and it is about an hour in good driving time from my house to Disneyland.

I will work on the hotel/motel list this weekend. I am sorry, but I have been so darn busy at work that I just haven't had a lot of extra time.

I am getting excited - and it is still January.

And Logan, you would be so welcome - a guaranteed delicious slushie would have your name on it...........
