I got back a little while ago from Pigeon Forge. I had an absolutely wonderful time and I'm really glad I was able to attend. I finally got to meet so many wonderful members and left there with that nice feeling you get after having spent a few days with good friends and lots of laughter. Cooker(Tom) and his wife Sherry were there from South Carolina, Wise and Cindy were there from Kentucky, Gadgetman(Danny) and his wife Peg were from Georgia, Mary and her husband Bob from Missouri, Sherry and her husband Stacy from Indiana, Marie(Earline) and her husband Jules from Lousiana, Shezagirl(Janie) and Mike from Texas and me from North Carolina. We were all from different states which I thought was interesting. Cooker's wife Sherry brought some of her homemade cakes (5!) and found plenty of good food around. The weather was beautiful and sunny and I think we went two days without a cloud in the sky!
Every time I have had the privilege of getting together with members of this board I am impressed all over again with the love and concern that is felt and how much concern there is over the welfare of fellow members, both old and new) who post on this site. Hank, you did a really good thing when you got this site going. Ross, good friend you are truly loved!
I'm sure others will chime in now and I'm sure pictures will soon appear from somewhere so just be patient.
We were all looking forward to meeting Designlady who lives close to the reunion site and were sad to hear she had become sick. Jane, we hope you are feeling better soon and we'll have another opportunity to meet you.
I forgot to mention Cindy's guide dog, Perry. We all fell in love with him. He is a truly remarkable dog and I'm so glad he lives with such a loving couple as Wise and Cindy.
