It was FUN!

(there, how's that for an update? )

There were cameras, so pictures will be up soon I bet. (I didn't think to bring mine) 4 kilts were in evidence. 1 kilt was lifted, but the wearer had underwear on, thank goodness. (but not for long)

Bruno did not wear a kilt.

Salsa's house is beautiful. Thank you Salsa and Mr. Salsa for hosting!

Now, when can we all go to Scotland?

Thank-you, Salsa, for a funtabulous time! Your home is truly beautiful. I'm glad that the headaches of the remodel are over and that the efforts of the last year turned out so well. Now you can sit back and enjoy all you've accomplished. And I am amazed by your and Mr. Salsa's talent and artistic ability.

It was wonderful getting to meet all these fantastic TE women and their SOs. Hopefully I have the opportunity to ride with everyone soon, including Bruno in her hometown. That would be amazing! Alas, I'm afraid that will be some years away with issues regarding time and $$$. <Sigh> Maybe, I'll win the lottery soon. 'Course I think that I actually have to play to have even a minuscule chance of winning. So I'm not holding my breath. But a girl can dream.

Thanks from me too, Salsa (and a hearty thanks to SalsaChris too!), for hosting us in your beautiful home.
Food, fun, friends is a great mix - every time, right? I thoroughly enjoyed the 'TE meet' and hope to see you all again soon - maybe out on a ride, eh?
Hey, Bruno - stop lickin' that Drambouie bottle - it's empty already!!
Tailwinds!

Guys, you can't imagine what a blast it was to have you all. What a totally cool group. I'm going to post below the same thing I said on OTA---for those who don't read OTA:

Man, the Bruno TE dinner last night was a blast! We had: Knotted Yet, SKnot, Mimi, Raleighdon, Sgtiger, Boy in a Kilt, Teigyr, Sean, X, Kit, Wahine, MM_QFC, Linda, Eden, Dex (did I miss anyone??). Bruno and I said to each other today, “Huh. Every single person was smart, funny, really nice, and interesting. How often does THAT happen?”

Surprised we didn’t get any police calls due to noise complaints about “Frequent Extremely Loud Bursts of Group Laughter”.

Guys---thanks so much for coming. We loved having all of you. Can’t wait to see the pics.

And furthermore, anyone who has a cat will know that this link tells the whole truth and nothing but (ask Kit why she wakes up with wet hair):

Bruno, it was indeed Kit's and my honor to meet you. You are even funnier and warmer in person than you are on the forum, which is saying a lot. Thank you for coming to Seattle to visit. We look forward to seeing you again someday, maybe in your country next time. (((Bruno)))

We had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone. Thank you so much Salsa and Mr Salsa for having us all over. You two are incredibly kind (read: mentally ill) to allow such a group of miscreants in your wonderful home.

*ahem* I have no idea what you are talking about with the Drambuie. I was a good girl.

Here's some pics from last night. Enjoy...

(I think I have it right. ) Unfortunately, Mimi and Raleighdon had already departed. Sknot also missing from the pic. (Smart kid. )
