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."My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."

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):

Why don't I remember any of those pics being taken?
All I know is I woke up this morning with a Scottish accent talking about effing E.
Wankers.

Great pictures! I wish I could blow up the big group one a bit bigger so I could see people better... Looks and sounds like you all had a good time. I want more of the story of x getting felt up please.

KG - you'll have to ask Wahine and Knot about that...and be forewarned: they'll claim a professional and therapeutic interest only Originally Posted by kelownagirl

And Bruno/Wahine - I have a funny feeling it'll be a long time before I can hear any references to the English, without picturing your patented 'turning of the head while cursing and spitting' reaction!
Glad that you travelin' types got home safely too.

oh...oh....my. Yes. Lovely pictures, crack included
Thank you Salsa for a great evening. Your house looks incredible! We had a great time. I still can't believe you can weave with steel but it was very soft, as steel goes.
It was incredible meeting everyone. I could not have asked for a better group of people to hang out with. I look forward to seeing you all (and others) again.
Knot, if you ever want to road trip to get a wetsuit, let me know. I'm all over that one!

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...
The gang from visual left to right as follows...
kitsune, salsa, xrayted, sgtiger, knottedyet, linda, mm_qfc, bruno, wahine and teigyr standing, sean, eden, boy in a kilt, dex.
(I think I have it right.) Unfortunately, Mimi and Raleighdon had already departed. Sknot also missing from the pic. (Smart kid. )
kit, bruno, eden and boy having a heart to heart.
discussing the finer details of cute bike socks.
Knot, Salsa and Mimi... the 3 amigos
4 kilts (and a kit) on a couch
just say no to crack. j/k... nice tat though, isn't it? I'm not saying who it belongs to... teigyr
