Hi Patty :wavey:

I'm probably going to be the youngest there or close to it :) But I don't mind so you shouldn't if you might be the oldest!! You seem like the sweetest lady, and I soooo cannot wait to meet you and Murf Man :D I hope your SIL is bringing her pup too---the more the MERRIER :D

That's very interesting that you have a donkey....that should be your fun fact!

Ok, my turn! I'm Tina, 28, and roomie of Nanci & Brooke (YorkieChick1). :) I'm originally from Kansas so thankfully the trip won't be a long one! Eric and I have been married for 2 1/2 years but together for almost 9; we like to take our time with things... heehee. I love to read and make time for it daily, no matter how stressed or tired I am. In my non-existent spare time, I love to crochet and would like to learn to knit. My friend bought me a little dog sweater kit for Christmas, but I have yet to tackle it. I used to be into paper crafts but finally just had to give it up for lack of time (and space). I love to shop but rarely do that as well since it's not so much fun with my own money. :p I'm big into accessories and love a good bracelet clearance find!

I so cannot wait to meet you and little Ms. Calli :) You seem like the sweetest lady, and I'm sure my BF can't wait to meet another "fellow KC'ian" instead of all of us "TOURISTS" :cool:

P.S. I love camping and bowling too---not so much on the planting flowers part :p

Can I come visit you sometime!?!?! The middle of the Mojave Desert sounds awesome, and I've never been, and I love to travel! You're bringing all your yorks (and other dogs) to the meet-up right? I can't wait to meet EVERYBODY!!! It's my goal by the end of the weekend to know each dog and their owner's first name---that might be tough!!!!!! :eek:

So......what could your secret possibly be? What field did you work in? What does Mike do? Do your chidren all live in California? Sorry if I'm prying but I have to know these things, you know :p :D ;)

Sonya - I think of you every time Matt and I take the girls and trailer out to go riding! We go out every weekend we possibly can. My favorite place to ride is the Johnson Valley OHV area (Camp Rock Road), just past Lucerne Valley. It's all part of the Anderson dry lake bed, and I know it's in the Mojave Desert. How far are you from there?

We'd originally nixed the idea as we have to pay for the bartender if we don't spend at least $250 in revenue, but we're still short on our minimum food and beverage expense, and any drinks you buy (soft drinks as well as alcoholic drinks) would count toward that minimum. Would you guys be interested in that? I'm not a "drinker", so it didn't really appeal to me, and my contact at the hotel agreed it would be easier to just go to the hotel bar and buy drinks there so we didn't have to worry about how much we spent, but if you ladies really plan on having a drink or two (or three, or four, or ... :D), then maybe I should do the bartender after all and help meet our minimum that way? If you divide the $250 by the 47 people currently attending, that means each person would need to spend about $5.50 on drinks. I know some will be fine with the coffee, tea, and water provided with dinner and won't buy anything from the cash bar, but would enough of you be interested in having the open bar that I should talk to the hotel and see if we can still do that? I think they charge $3 for a soft drink, and the alcohol is obviously more than that...
