One of 'those' weekends!!!!


Oh yes, folks, one of 'those weekends'!!!!!! What an attractive group we have in this weekend from CA, WA, TX, AZ well, four states anyway.

Everybody checked in nice and early yesterday, before 5pm. Before 6 there was a group in and around the hot tub getting introduced, engaged, married and divorced all at the same time if you get my drift ;).

Mike and John dropped by last night after Fur Friday at Hunters for a few libations. Always a pleasure. We are expecting Soloman (Sodam) and Chris (Gomorrah) to drop by later this afternoon. Dennis called this morning and he and AJ might drop in. Quite the party atmosphere I can tell you.

Stuart and I have been invited to a cocktail party this evening 6pm-9pm. It's given by our friends Doug and Erich celebrating their 30th year together and Erichs 60th birthday! It's the 30/60 party! Looking forward to that. Pictures of the weekend to follow. What a great job we've got!!

So many things!!!!


There are so many things to report from the weekend, I don't know what to put in or leave out!!! First, a new photo for our rack cards x3 (see previous blog entry). A big thank you to Tracy T. for taking the picture!!!!!

Sunday afternoon we had an earthquake!! We were sitting outside, Stuart says 'we're having an earthquake' to which I replied, No, it's the wind ... NO, WAIT ... WE ARE HAVING AN EARTHQUAKE. No damage but it went on for 45 seconds which is a long time. The water was sloshing around the pool although we didn't loose any water. 7.2 centered near Mexicali which is on the Mexican side of the border opposite Calexico geddit? Some bright spark had a brain wave and named the two cities opposite each other across the border a play on Mexico and California. Clever, eh!! That took a lot of thinking about.


Soloman and Chris (Sodam and Gomorah) finally made an appearance over the weekend and it was a pleasure to see them. They're getting rather tired of Puerta Vallarta and the restaurant business so hopefully they'll be back here soon opening something fabulous in Palm Springs.. . we look forward to it. You have our full support as long as it doesn't involve money!
