I see several LPers in the Park very often (some of who work at the Parks), that it's unbelievable just how great we all are. It was truly a "Magical Gathering." Now it's time to prepare for our "Happiest Homecoming on Earth," and I truly believe that this will be incredible. Thank you to everyone: Doobie, Rebekah, Dave, Wayne Allwine, Russi Taylor, the great people at the Disneyland Resort, Karlos and his staff, Becky Murphy... I mean the list goes on and on. Hear's to another "Grand Gathering" in 2005! Roger.
Originally Posted By Disneygirl Thank you all for this wonderful meeting of all of the LPers, and all of the hard work that was put into making the meet so much fun for everybody.

I feel that those that allowed me to hang around with them were all very special people. I don't know what else to say, as the previous posts do a great job of summing everything up. I didn't get a chance to say hello to Doobie and Rebekah, I am so glad that they were able to come out to host the event, along with the others that did all of the behind the scenes work. Waiting until 2005 for another "Big Meet" will be worth the wait if it is anything like this one. This is the first "Big Meet" that I have been to, and have only been to two or three of the mini meets. Once again, Thank you LPers for making this one of the most fun times I have spent at the parks!

It started with a website that was run to spread the magic, grew into a group of loving and sharing people, a people who then went out and spread the word. Yes. The word that the world can be a better place if we find communities. That all you need is your Laughing Place to keep a good perspective on things. So Thank you Doobie and Rebekah for making this all possible. (Note from the future. Circa 2049) -indigo <a href="http://www.thedisneyblog.com" target="_blank">http://www.thedisneyblog.com</a>
