Back in Florida

Some trip highlights:

• Every bit of the time I spent with Bess, who gets more and more delightful every time I see her.


• The wedding was everything a wedding should be; the bride was beautiful in a vintage 30’s gown and hair to match, the groom was blissfully happy, the food was fantastic, and everyone was happy. Plus, the one other person there from Hotline was someone I like.


• Watching Brokeback Mountain with the girls and Matthew; I can take or leave the movie, but the company couldn’t have been better.


• All sorts of time spent with my sister and nephew. Jack just gets cuter and more interesting every time I see him.


• Enough time to spend some just relaxing by myself at mom and dad’s.


• Time with Tangwystle and Al, and having sausages (according to Tang, “pork is a vegetable”. She’s crazy, but we love her.


• Seeing my parents and Anita, even if briefly. I also got to see Paul briefly, but missed out on LB. Next time.


• The evening I spent with Ilana and Barbara was fantastic, even if it started late. We had tea and conversation, and you can’t beat that.


• Jascaha and I didn’t get the chance to drink together, but we did eat really good Chinese food with Bill & Jo at Peter’s Chung King.


• Finally getting the chemise from Bidgie so that I can hopefully have it done sometime this century.

Thanks to everyone who made the trip such a good one.

My plane home was an hour late taking off, and about an hour late landing. And he bounced it on landing. But other than that, it was a good flight and I got my favourite seat (yay legroom!) and an IKEA catalog to read during the flight. Who can ask for more?

Welcome back. I'm glad your vacation was everything you'd dreamed of.

Thanks! I hope yours was fantastic too!

I'd like to get together for coffee sometime this week or on the weekend, but I need to nail down a couple of things on my schedule first.

Alas, there were no monkeys. I did get winked at by a Llama though. A remarkably handsome Llama.

Sure thing, just have your people call my people or something.
