ohhh man that was yummy! I had made pork chops yesterday in my celery and mushroom soup sauce I like so I just threw that in the oven and boiled some egg noodles. That sauce was some good over those I can tell ya and the chops melt in your mouth on day two. mmmm...mmmm

woooohoooo Jean great shots! I know the one I really want was those cute hearts that Ruud put up near the end. Then I want Ruud, Anna and Brigitte that I'll put in the corners of a pic of Kat and Lance that I have. I'll make us up a nice one and send it to them with the project. Love you too my friend and oh man it was an awesome time! I can't wait to hear from Kat and Lance

awww thanks Annie, I'm so glad you liked the project. Kat sent me all those pics from work so Lance wouldn't know. It was a surprise for him. Sorry about your capture, I had mine fired up and it didn't cross my mind once! sheesh. Thanks GF for liking my pj pics! Isn't that pink perty.

woohooo thanks Anna! I'm glad then I went outside and got them for you guys. I was soooo scared I'd miss the end. Thanks again my friend for having the terrific party today. You and Ruud do big hugs for me ok?

awww thanks so much Doug for the wishes and same to you! Thanks also for the gorgeous shot!

hehe Annie, cause we just can't help ourselves I guess! Isn't that something the wee waterfall. I'll check it tomorrow cause it will be even worse. You're welcome for the 'scaps and no I haven't heard sound and I'm not sure that it's turned on yet. I remember last years buzzzzzzz. I did get a shot of the eagle there at the fish spot but it's a bad one so I just didn't bother. Aren't B and F huge!! man alive I'm glad I'm not feeding them

Dede Ruud will post the link to the replay when he has it up on his site and when you see it, near the beginning you'll see my project and that tells the story of Kat and Lance

Ohhhhhhhhhhh I forgot something!!!!

your turn Annie!

What a crazy fun show. Beautiful video Lori. Great to see Lance and Kat in their, um, younger years. What was meant to be was meant to be. I am so happy I didn't miss the "family" show today. What a lovable, huggable bunch.

Nice to see everyone...I'll post tomorrow.

yes for BJ. don't they know how to put up a tall razor wire fence?

See you all later, and thanks for all being so dear and thoughtful.

I'll watch for it. My "sunset" pic was weak -- no real sunset but a dramatic sky I couldn't capture adequately from the window. Horizon line is the mountains: as in "Rocky Mts."

:hello: Everyone....... Are we doing New Year's Resolutions? Mine is to get my new camera --- and to learn how to use it for zoom and nature shots. Up till now, I can do great pics of family and of my landscape projects and of plants, both close-ups and "in context" shots, (which I used in presentations/teaching) -- but I am determined to expand my knowledge and technical savvy with the new camera options. Before digital cameras I knew how to do manual settings etc. and have gotten lazy in recent years with the new point-and-shoots. But the New Year is a time to make a resolution and that is mine!

And you have all inspired me!!!

:hello:.......To the first Evenin' of the New Year........

(((Lori)))......Love what you started. Beautiful first sunset pics from you (((all))).......Going to download my contribution.

I love the Black-bellied Whisting Ducks. DUCK!
