I know how you feel, **Geo.** I’ve been hanging out at LiveJournal so much, I sorta was neglecting the Board, too. But I’ve noticed my participation here waxes and wanes. So, you’ve heard it from me before, but all the best to you and Kilt-Boy. ---

Hey, we’re definitely interested! But like **RT** , we were looking forward to catching up with you and your hunky Marine in person on Saturday. And, if it makes you feel any better, I am insanely jealous of your beautiful wedding spot ;). ---

Ummm, that was from me, not **Bluesman**. He likes **Bill** and all, but I don’t think he’s ever thought of him as particularly “hunky”. ---

Oh, dear. Look what I have to look forward to this weekend. Geo and UncleBill making out in the potato salad, and UncleBill giving Bluesman lapdances. I’m gonna need to get more batteries for the camera. ---

Great news! Glad things are going well. The new truck looks _fab_…A new truck is a joy. I just got a new Toyota Tacoma. I’ve had it for 3 weeks and I’ve put 4000 miles on it. 😃 ---

Sorry I haven’t visited here before, Geo. You know I’ll miss you when you head south. On the other hand Clan Chance vacationed in Key West last year. I know the exact spot where you’re tying the knot. It’s a beautiful place and I’m sure you’ll have a good 'un. But be sure to come back and visit us here in DC from time to time, OK? Otherwise I’ll never forgive Uncle Bill. ---

I’ve had it for 3 weeks and I’ve put 4000 miles on it. 😃 \*\* You know, just this very morning I ran across the printout of your truck thread that I made when I was considering my purchase, and was wondering what you had finally decided on. I’m glad you’re happy with it. I had a Ranger before, an '89 that I bought new and drove for over 100K miles, and I loved that li’l truck sooooo much. I just love pickups, they’re a lot of fun. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Jonathan Chance \* > \*\*But be sure to come back and visit us here in DC from time to time, OK? Otherwise I’ll never forgive Uncle Bill. \*\* We’re thinking about having a reception/big-ass party up here around Christmas-New Year’s, since we’re having a small wedding but would like to be able to share the event with all our friends. And I still have family here, so we’ll be back to visit from time to time. And Bill and I are notorious Dopefest travelers. So don’t you worry none about that. ---
