Thumbs up

AND...There Were FIVE!


How often are FIVE Pigeon Talk members able to greet and meet each other??

On Saturday, December 15, 2007, FIVE of us were able to meet, talk and greet...and boy, did we TALK!!

Margaret and her husband, Jon, flew in from CA on their way to Prescott.

Jim (Paws) from Alaska, also flew by on his way to visit parents in FL.

Cindy (AZWhitefeather) and Kim (KIPPY) and myself were the rest of the FABULOUS FIVE!

Also joining us were my daughter, Baya and my good friend, Golda, both of whom have heard me "mention" Pigeon Talk and the various members a "few" times...

We all met at a nearby restaurant for lunch and then visited Cindy's lovely Aviary before everyone went on their way.

Anticipation and excitement, for me, was incredible!

Jim was able to stay until Sunday night and I think I talked more in those two days than in the two YEARS since I retired! Yes, Jim IS just as funny in person as his posts!

Monday, I just vegged...

I'm sure Cindy, Margaret and Kippy will post their comments. Margaret also has a picture to post!

To say I enjoyed meeting Margaret, Jon and Jim is putting it mildly! THEY ARE TERRIFIC!!

Thank you - Thank you - Thank you for flying in. Welcome back ANY TIME!

With LOVE and HUGS

Shi

Wow, what a fun time we had!!! It was terrific to see all those nosey members together. Cindy's aviary is beyond beautiful. Meeting Rae Charles was a great treat for me as well as all the other AZWhitefeather birds. AND the loft and cages are decorated for Christmas. Cindy, you rock!

Here is a picture of this gabby bunch. Left to right is Shi, Golda is hidden behind Shi, Shi's daughter Baya, Kim, Cindy, Jim and Margaret. Jon was taking the picture.

Shi was the organizer of our little get together. A great thank you Shi, for making this happen.

Margaret
I truly enjoyed the day as well.
Meeting you & Jon & Jim was an absolute delight.
I know we could all have easily talked the night away.

Thank you for the gracious compliment on the aviary & our birds.
I'm so glad you were able to meet the indoor 'flock'.

Yes indeed, 'Thank You', Shi.

Good question, Terry.
I have no idea, since I don't keep up with the NMB gossip.
But I bet Shi will have an answer.

HRMPF! Shows where I rate!
.... At least I got a free lunch out of the deal...thanks Mom!

(Thank you Lady Tarheel! You posted before I could point it out!)

Seriously...It was fun getting to meet folks and have faces to go with some of the names! It would have been nice to go over to Cindy's place with everyone, but I was just too pooped <--heh, pigeon humor!) to stick around. Hopefully I'll get to go with Mom again one of these days...I want to see the Roller!
