A Very Busy Week and a Two-Turkey Weekend

Nov 30, 2009 12:31

The trip was really good: busy, warm, and wonderful. We stuffed the SD trip full of great food, beaches, the Zoo, mounting paintings, and seeing my family again. Since we'd gotten our ticket so late, we came home again on Friday and had the whole weekend to make our own turkey (yum, leftovers!), pumpkin pie, and stuffing with gravy, and then John ( Read more... )

I can remember when the zoo was just really getting going with the Wild Animal Park in Escondido to try and bring the condor back. That's great that they're having success!

Sounds like a very pleasant holiday indeed!

(btw, I found your Web site this weekend and did a doubletake at discovering Chris P./Fire in one of your old pictures. I continue to boggle that our paths never crossed during the times I visited the Horde -- or maybe we did and weren't introduced; not sure....)

*laughs* Yes. Though it's been a while since I've seen Fire... but I do still visit bits of the Horde every year or two. I am pretty amazed we never crossed paths, really either, but I never played in the MUSHes much either.

Too overawed... *laughs* Between Cera, Bryant, and others, it was fun to just watch from too. *grins* We might have met there, too? I dunno.

It was a very good and restful holiday. I was glad of it. And, yeah, it was very neat to see the condors, they seemed nigh on mythological when I was a kid, a symbol for all that was wrong in the world... odd to see how they're "saved" and the world still has it's pitfalls. *laughs*

I did hang out on Too until about 2000-2001 or so, though not always in the main room. Quite possible our paths crossed there. I think it was around then I discovered AIM, and was content to ditch Too once incandescens took up AIM. ^_^

Hee. Yes. Incandescens is fun to talk with, very much, and AIM is much easier to use than the mush system.

Wowzers that was an exceptionally full few days. But they sounded lovely.

I adored John's choice of birthday to do.

XD Yeah... he won't eat casseroles of any kind, he dislikes mac and cheese usually, and doesn't like hamburgers. I think he's just like any other kid, it's just what he's picky about is different.

It was an excellent birthday To Do. *grins*
