I hope that LP becomes "home and family" to you as it has for so many of us. I look forward to reading your posts!

Everyday life can be seriouse enough for me right now. Thank you again, I know this will be just like a second family, my friends dont quite understand my disney obcession so it is so great to have this community.

If you have the opportunity, try attending the Big Meet in July, you won't regret it.

As Shiva said you really should try to come to any of the July "Big" meets where you can meet a bunch of the LPers. It's great being able to put a face to a name. We've met some wonderful new friends from all over. And to quote Smedley "we're mostly friendly axe murderers". P Glad you decided to introduce yourself! Have fun here!

Originally Posted By oredisneyfan yes you are correct DlandDug, I do live in Ashland Or. Not originally from here but have lived here for the past 23 years. I would love to go to a meet one day but we have already planned a DL vacation for June 15 so I dont think I can fanagle a July vacation as well. maybe next time
