I arrived at Albuquerque about twenty minutes ago. Just going to have a long bath to soothe my muscles and freshen up. Will be ready to meet up with anyone in an hour or so.

Staying at the Plaza Inn, by the way.

ZERO MORE WORKIN' DAYS! :biggrin:

Magickmaker is driving me to National tomorrow morning, dark and early. Arriving in ABQ at 10:05am, assuming American hasn't rescheduled my flight or something. Off now to check in for my flight! (P.S. Wadds, the hotel has an airport shuttle bus.)

Wadds: Hilton. Garden. Inn. :roll: I thought college was supposed to make you smarter... KIDDING!!

Ain't technology grand? I'm typing to you from 32,000 feet above West Texas, having paid $4.95 to some shady Internet provider to get online from the plane. Be there soon! :)

Big delays in Chicago. Very small chance that we can get on an overbooked flight and arrive at 3. Otherwise we won't land until 10 pm today. *sigh*

I feel you. I should've arrived at noon, now I'll be happy to get there at seven. Don't the airlines know how important we watchers are?!?!?

Hi all,

Well, we're aren't there, and aren't going to make it. We got as far as Ogden UT when the transmission on the Sequouia dropped. We spent all day yesterday in the airport trying to get a flight back home. We ended up flying up to Seattle, down to Portland and then finally to Redmond. The car is still in Ogden. Dad and Myles are flying back down there to get it fixed and they will drive it back.

Hope you all have a great time! We'll be there in spirit and I know Mom is there tool. Love and huggles to everyone! |G
For Myles--
When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love


For Mom--
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

Fly...fly high against the sky...
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you
The wind beneath my wings

It's official - we're stuck in Chi-town and won't get to ABQ until 10 pm. I can't believe we're going to miss the bbq! See you all at breakfast. 9 am?

Just talked to Aliantha on the phone and she said that she, Waddley and Lorin will be here at the BBQ around three. Danlo is currently with Damelon picking up Jonnyredleader. Lurch just arrived and set up a big canopy tent and I am about to cut up some watermelon.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

what an amazing group of people. I feel honored to be included in the festivities.

I miss Sea (even though we never met 3d) and wish she could have been with us.

Lady Tam was there for me with a sign that said Fist. IIRC, she said she had been approached by someone from possibly India whose last name was Fist. :lol:

Pfff... You're both amateurs when it comes to arriving late to Elohimfest. :haha:


So everybody have a great time! It's really amazing that you're there Loremaster, and I truly wish I'd been able to make it this year to meet you. RL has been... Well, it's a bit beyond explanation. Anyway, everybody have fun!!!! :D :D :D

What an amazing group of people this has turned out to be. When it comes time for the final Efest everyone on the watch had better not flake because this has been so totally cool. I would be posting pics right now but Danlo forgot the password and name of his network so I can't get online with my own laptop and I loaded all the pics in my laptop and erased them from my camera. So when I get home I promise, pictures pictures pictures.

We formed an ur-vile wedge for those pictures on the deck. Loremaster should have been at the front, but with him being rather tall, that was not possible.

A most excellent evening. Good food, good conversation.

We're darn cute, aren't we? :lol: The lighting was perfect, Jenn -- you're a genius! :)

Other than Fist texting me this morning at 5:45am ("I thought it was only a 1 hour time difference," he says :x ;) ), it's been a great time so far. Wadds and I are up, and I've already had a Creator sighting. Looking forward to meeting up again at the Flying Star in awhile. (Altho I hope we can get in -- there's a parade or something blocking Central...)
