Hi all...
You are so right about needing the ocean here!!!!!!! Let's see; bring the ocean, or a huge body of WARM water that allows a larger than 10x10 swimming area; sand; greenery/palms year round; real veggies... no hydrocraponic tomats for me!!; fresh fish to eat and catch.. and I mean REAL fish.. like salmon, etc. One's that actually have a weight class and I'll stop my complaining!!!!!!

As far as a get together Denver Dan... we were thinking about doing it real soon, and this time at Maggiano's... don't take offense Over 40 and almost 43 Pirate; great food but certainly not enuff!!! I left starving!!! Both for more food and more AC ......there's also a guy in Colorado Springs that wants to get together.....he's from the board too, so, somehow, lets make it happen!!! ciao for now....

ps jlslks... i've got a pix for you, and if you can pick me out in this one, i'll send you the other!!!

How bout me??? I want pics also!!

Oh, sure...go ahead and tell everybody how old I am...remember...I know how old you are too!!
Not enuf food???!!! I left there STUFFED! You must have hollow legs, 'cause you certainly aren't packin' it anywhere else!

AT LEAST YOU WERE NOT THE OLDEST ONE THERE.
I AGREE WITH DIANN, I WAS LOOKING FOR MORE FOOD BY 1:00 AM . ALL THAT BEER MIGHT HAVE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT.. DO YOU THINK ??
LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTIN TOGETHER AGAIN.

What we need is some Belikins, and chicken, beans,and rice!

Hey Diann, I live in Oregon, a little farther away but my husband loves to fish (his favorite rivers, the Deschutes and the Rogue) so do I have salmon for you, only a freezer full. Plus I have a coastline which is only 40 minutes away. It might just be a touch colder (ok, so a hell of a lot colder) but it is absolutely beautiful. Living so close to the coast is nice. We get to have fresh seafood all year round. Maybe not the tropical fish, but just as tasty. Dungenous Crab is my favorite. Mmmmmm Mmmmmmm!!

Hey, sunkissed! I've been to Oregon...you are truly blessed with a beautiful state! The coastline is incredible, and Crater Lake is just jaw-dropping awesome! But you are a bit colder and wetter than we are!

diann
Where did you send the pix to??????
looking forward to seeing it.......I had surgery yesterday so wasn't on-line any... Surgery went well but now for the down time I'll probably be watching the board a lot...
Sounds like you'll had a great yime at dinner!!!! wish I'd been there...Catch you later!!!!!!!! John S.
