I just realized I have nothing for snack or dessert tomorrow! 
So off I go to fill up the tank, get some snacks and then home to take my shower and try to go to sleep. The problem is I rarely go to sleep before 1 AM and get up around 7 AM so this is going to be interesting to say the least.

Got the van cleaned out and the other seat put back in, ready to roll! 8+ hours and counting! |

| There will be bagels and cream cheese -- enough for everyone and probably enough for lunch as well if that helps. |

got the van gassed and the chips and such for myself. I am so ready for this, I'm at a point where I can't stand to be touched right now and I'm a very huggy type of person but I feel so crowded right now it's unreal. So if I seem a bit stand offish to start with it's only because I'm still decompressing and realizing that I'm not going to have 3 kids and 12 animals wanting my attention. By the end of the day you will all be getting hugs, guaranteed!

Okay, going to bed myself. Just printed out the cell number given to me for my daughter in case she has an emergency. We talked about what an emergency is, if she dialed 911 first, it's an emergency, if she didn't, then it's NOT! She said, "Well what if someone breaks into the house? That's an emergency!"
"Did you call 911 first?"
"I can't get to the phone." she said.
"THEN YOU SURE CAN'T CALL ME NOW THEN, CAN YOU?"
*sigh*
See why I need this?

It was my first gtg every with DPC'rs and it was WONDERFUL! They put up with my motor mouth and my hugs in the end and I found out something special about each one. Kadi likes having her buttons pushed, MeThos had the biggest equipment, mavrik is MUCH MUCH MUCH OLDER than he looks, LOL, n8trchik is a sweetheart, Butterflysis is late, eqsite is an absolute sweetheart, davidx76 and Nololai1024 have the sexiest accents.
That is all.
Deannda
Thanks again everyone for letting me tag along, it was exactly what I needed |

(n8trchik wins the best kisses)

And I don't look 20! Oh .. wait, yes, I do!

What an incredibly pleasant day!
(Despite the threat of bad weather...;-))
I'm going to take a moment to download my pics and find at least one good enough (for me) to put in the wide-angle challenge. (Thank you, Jen for lending me your lens! We'll see if one of those makes it in...)
Nick, if you drive route 17, consider taking route 10 north at Deposit past the reservoir and then 30 east...you'll have to go to maps.google for the rest...but the Catskills, even just that lower fringe, are worth a little side trip.
Gary! Superb job as gang leader! My hat's on backwards for you...just to get a better frame. :-)
Brent, so nice to meet you! I hope if I have to move to Colorado that all the people are 1/4 as nice as you!
David, I know where you live. =) We'll try to do something on the 29th. I came up with a few ideas on the drive home.
mavrik and n8trchik---so cool that you live in my corner of the world! One of you is just as mouthy in person as in the forums and the other is just as tolerant as I would have expected. ;-) Great to meet you both!
Deannda....yes, I saved you for last....I am so glad you came out to play today! I'm really glad that your daughters didn't stick peas up their noses and call to tell you about the emergency. (Was your cell phone even on?) ((I hope your hubby didn't hear that...)) Thank you for 'needing' us...maybe we all got exactly what we needed too.
The wind is howling outside my windows and the rain is beginning to pelt the panes. I'm off to find that special photo for tonight's challenge. Wish me luck!
Edit to say...NICK! Thanks for the group photo! It's much better than I imagined--there's even some autumn color in the background!

OMFG! I'm so telling her you called her mouthy!
Kidding!
Yeah I had a great time - and I'm entering "What?!" and Wide Angle right now. :)
Both shots already picked out thanks to various members. ;)

And I got to hold this Camera today: Canon EOS-ID Mark II and actually shot with it in burst mode. I was beyond thrilled!
Thank you Brent!
And Nick and Mav for letting me play with your cameras a little bit too, going to make it hard when it comes time to choose.
Deannda
But I reallllllly want the Canon EOS-iD Mark II |

Yeah for some - I didn't turn it on until about halfway thru the day - didn't seem to help them much. I saw the pic of the lamb and kid on your site too - that's FUNNY! :D
