F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Our wings are not tired.

More pictures, but not too many. We went for a nice long ride out to the mountains. Saw people water skiing at the park, saw lots of snow. Lovely day. And soon I get to see Nicole and Suzi!

Yay dcp! See you soon.

Nicole and Suzi have talked us into going to Red Rocks in the morning. Like sunrise time early. Not so bad since our internal clocks are still on east coast time.

We had a lovely dinner. No picture of the 4 of us since I left the memory card for the camera in my computer. Ooops.

That's a good suggestion, I'd like to join in. When/where to meet?

eta: Check-in complete. I'm over on the south side, room 217.

The status is NOT quo.

So now I can say that the main reason we couldn't come to the F2F was that I'd been plotting for a vacation on the cheap up in the PNW with ND, and the only week we were both free and I could get the great deal on the little cabin I found on the Oregon coast was this week...it was a surprise, so I couldn't say anything before now, but that's why we are here and not in Denver. Sad to miss the F2F, but the Oregon coast is ND's favorite place, and he hadn't been here in seven years. So...yeah. At least we're getting some mini-F2F up in Portland and Seattle, where we are briefly passing through to see friends.

ND and I have had three blissful days together away from work and stress, and it's been so nice. This is our first vacation together that didn't involve visiting family or me tagging along when he was working since our honeymoon.

Ooh, Oregon coast!! So pretty. If you're near there, head over to the aquarium in Newport--it's really cool.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

Pix, I'm in Astoria, Oregon if you are close and want recommendations or need anything. I've put my phone number in my profile.

I'm getting the pig!

Welcome to Denver! dcp, I hope you were able to connect with Laura and Brendon. If not, I'm definitely up for another Red Rocks run either Saturday or Sunday morning. Morning is the best time to go since they usually have concerts in the evenings.

I have a couple of little work things to wrap up this morning and then an appt at noon, so DH and I are free after 1pm. Laura said she'd text me and let me know when you all have had a chance to hook up so I know where to meet you this afternoon.

Have fun at the F2F, all! I was hoping I'd be able to make it, but I needed to take my vacation a little earlier than this due to some deadlines at work (plus I really needed it when I took it).

Hi dcp! We didn't get out there this morning so that trip will be rescheduled. DH ended up working until quite late. He is still asleep.

I'm considering checking out the swimming pool, after I get more coffee in me. I was up too late too.
