Hi all,

If you are going to share cell numbers, etc, pls do so in PM/emails.... not allowed to be publically posted here (safety measures for you for anyone lurking).

Paul, B&N at 11am is a go!

Jane.... thank you! ;) ;) :)  :-*  :-*  :-*

If anyone needs capabilities to reach me, pls email/PM me here for my cellnumber.

See you tomorrow all!

Oh, and btw..... no outta-New England team attired allowed ;)   We got Bruins/Celtics going for playoffs in town this weekend... the BoxSox playing Baltimore (GREAT game last night!) and Marathon Monday!   ;)

Steve, hope to see you next time.... current head count of 28 persons.... in a private room so all can "hear" better.... and great enjoyment. Please keep a look out in the AN Community forum for the next one.

reminder note to speak to Bill at the restaurant to negotiate larger room for next brunch!  :o  :o

When is the next Brunch?  ;)  You do this every 6 months?  It's hard for me to get away during hurricane season, especially the busy time for Tampa, which is September through November.
 
Anyone interested in a winter time brunch in Florida? :)

I am.  I'll start checking my mailbox sometime in November for my airline tickets!

What's that??  I must have my BAHA off.

Did you say you're not paying for our airline tickets  :(   ;)

That was fabulous! When is the next one? I was just getting warmed-up and it was time to go.....

I've just emerged from my food coma and now preparing for supper!

That was one helluva buffet!

Hi K,

Glad you liked the pics.  It was nice to meet the people you forumize (is that a word?) with.

Are there ever any gatherings out your way?

Hope to meet you and yours one day :)

Thanks for the pictures! It's also nice to see names because I didnt' get a chance to talk to everyone. What a great group of people. I want my husband to run fast at the marathon tomorrow so that he can re-qualify for Boston and we can come up again. Or I'll have to Boston qualify (not likely!)
Also, my driving in Boston today (in those tunnels and on the streets that you get stuck on and can't exit off of, and did I mention the one way streets I went down the wrong way?) anyway, it proves that you can survive AN surgery and still go through the stress of driving in Boston without too many ill effects (or tickets, or wrecks). Rich, I guess the MA police you warned looked the other way when they saw me coming!
So nice to be there and meet you all. I'm now hungry thinking about all that food.
Kaybo - when I make it back to Texas, we can try to get a reunion going! I'd love some TX barbeque.

Another fine brunch bunch - everyone looks great!

Rich, the quote from Kaybo being in your post before her post kinda threw me on a time warp. And since we are forumites, I think forumize is a fine new verb.  :D

Great pictures, Rich.  And thanks for breaking them up into a who's who.  Although it was funny to see the jackets and the sweats in that we were dealing today with temps pushing 100 degrees.  Glad you had fun.
