Hey - should have posted this on the podcast board earlier, but it just didn't occur to me. It's been on the DL board, though.

A whole passle of us are meeting at 11:30am today at Redd Rocket's Pizza Port for lunch. Even Mary Jo is coming!!!!! There should be at least 20 or more and we'll all be sporting our LGMHs!

We're all so excited! If any locals are looking for something to do today, come on down!!!!

We had a blast! It was great to see folks and to meet Mary Jo, the wonam who is Mom/Moderator to the DL Board!

We had gotten there late and got stuck in the throngs of folks trying to get into the parks. The line of cars waiting to park at Mickey and Friends (the massive garage) was stopped all the way on the bridge into the structure. Then, we were smart in taking the monorail in, but it took us a while.

The highlights:

• Meeting everyone - Pixiewings and her husband, Waisowskilover, DisneyLove, Axiom, Shyboy, TooCherie, and of course, the honorable Mary Jo.
• Sharing the remains of one of the seasons last handpulled candy canes - made by the master craftsmen at the Candy Palace and Mr. Guy Fieri of Food Network fame. (I got 2 of the 20 made for the taping of that show.) The best part was sharing them with people who "got" their importance and appreciated it!
• Great conversation at lunch a a group photo to follow.

All in all - a great time!

Sorry we missed it! We've been staying at the HoJo all weekend and my time on the boards has been very limited so I missed seeing the info about the meet at Pizza-Port.

Happy to hear you all had a great time!

I can sure relate to the lines just trying to get into the park. YIKES!

DS and I are really looking forward to Food and Wine at CA and getting to meet Pete and the gang.

That sounds really cool! Do you have any pics?

I do! I have to get them uploaded into Flickr, but I'll try to do that today. It was a really fun experience and the candy canes were beatutiful and flavorful.

I'll also post up a group shot of all of us that were there when we arrived late.
