I think I missed this forum way too much this time it went bye-bye............

I know I have in the past always vehemently resisted the very notion of abandoning LUSENET, but now seem to be weakening............

(I will now, on this beautiful summer night, picture us all gathered 'round a huge bonfire, grazing on wonderful home-grown food, raising our various voices in wondrous song, forming pockets of spirited conversation, playing for each other our beautiful music and making new music together, nurturing our sisters and brothers with our poetry, crying and laughing on one another shoulders, and of course, skinniy dippin in nearby Lake BTS!

*sigh* ;)

Night all!

(goin for a swim now)

It sounds GREAT! I think we should plan a get-together for real time! Who lives in the middle of the country? If we planned it far enough out that we could save our money and plan our time, I bet we could actually do it!!

And I could learn to play the guitar by then! 8-)

AND....if we plan it far enough ahead, maybe I could lose about 50 lbs. or so!! Until I do...ferget about the skinny-dipping thing :-)!!! Ain't done that since my college years.

Sure sounds like a beautiful get-together, EM!!!

I was a little sad too when I couldn't find you all. I'm not sure about getting together. It sounds like a good idea. I'm just not sure I could work it all out (kids and all).

Wait a minute...you mean the net was down for a couple of days? I thought it was my computer and that I fixed it. Duh!

I used to instant message on Countryside Friends Picture all the time and got really friendly with a few people. I really miss that direct talking. It had knocked me off for a while but I've gotten back on and no one is ever there anymore.
