    Wheeeeee!

    The party was great fun! Thank you to Salsa and Mr. Salsa for hosting! And thank you to Mimi and RD for bringing the smoothie bike!

    As we left, SKnot announced that my friends are "all crazy" but they are "all cool." He had a good time, and liked being there. (me, too!)

    We had a bottle of Drambuie for ya, Bruno!

    It was fun. Good people and good food. Works for me.

    still waiting for pictures though. Poor Salsa and Mr Salsa are probably house cleaning now (or still entertaining guests so i don't imagine we'll see any pictures until tomorrow.

    Poor, nada. Clean-up was easy.

    It was a ton of fun! We don't have any pix, by the way (dead batteries), but I think it's BikerHen's camera that has THE GOOD PIC. Wait till you guys see...

    Really--to the folks who came---what a blast! To those who didn't make it this time---you were missed. The smoothie bike/trainer/blender thing is a hoot. Works great. Who would believe it?

    Polenta...stuffed mushrooms...meatballs...baked brie...great bread...RD pies. Boy, that guy makes a mean pie.

    Knot, I'm so glad SKnot likes to be here. We like him a lot.

    We laugh LOUDLY, don't we?

    Till next time....and that pic from BikerHen...

    It was tons o' fun...thank you again Salsa and DH Salsa...Mimi and RaleighDon for yummy smoothies and pies, oh my!
    Great to meet BikerHen and her dancing Chick too! BikerChick had the camera, so we all made sure to assemble for pic before leaving...Wahine and Bruno (not to slight anyone else who couldn't attend this time) - you will see that you were with us in spirit, f'sure...wait and see...
    Not sure if the BikerHen and Chick had to take the "scenic route via Portland" again to return home; if so, maybe they stopped at the Handmade bike show?
    Next time, hopefully the weather will cooperate and we can all ride together...

    BikerHen checking in

    We did get to go over the pass on the way home, much quicker than detouring through Portland! The snow at the top of the Pass was quite impressive, clear up to the bottom of the big highway signs and totally covering the smaller roadway signs. A few of the offramps looked like tunnels. We took some pictures but had a big semi on our tail so couldn't slow down too much.

    Haven't had a chance to download any of the photos. The chick is in charge of photos and she wasn't home last night and is going out again tonight. But I promise I'll nail her down either in the morning or tomorrow night for sure. Sorry to be so photo posting challenged. The chick has walked me through the process but I do it so infrequetly I forget. bikerHen
