Thanks for the validation. I have to say that I am totally psyched to be included into this so cool group (listen to me you would think I'm sixteen and not forty um..... not forty yeah that's it.)
I have to say that I have really enjoyed everyone's trip reports. I must pay homage to all the great trip reports that I have read. (again with the stalker thing.

)
LALA your's was soooo great and I cried when I read your epilogue. I haven't lived in the south for ages...years I meant years.. um, er nevermind. I was completely devastated to see what happened to everyone and I pray for a quick return to normalcy (whatever that is). I have family that live in Houston and let me tell you we were watching nonstop holding our breath when Rita came rolling thru.
Master Gracie I can't wait for the next Spiderman installment.
Horseygirl yours made me laugh and I can sympathize with all the critters. I only have a dog and cat but you would think that the world revolved around them. My DDBB (see siggy) says that my dog is a spoiled mama's boy and I can't argue. My cat seems to think she is the mistress of all she surveys and lord help if any visting felines wander into her domain.
Momyofmnm or Poly Melon Mom your stories made me laugh so hard my DDBB thought I had lost my marbles. Your kids are soo cute.
Zzub the Great what can I say but Wow and hello from another Pacific Northwesterner.
To everyone else, This is no slight I just can't think of everyone elses except for Vettechick and MelHappyHaunt (even though I can't find Mel's I've seen her replies to all).
I look forward to sharing in all the great stories. (wow I need to get some kind of life

, you would think I don't have a job

or anything) I sound desperate
