Thank you also Doobie for sending me the archive of last year's Golden Doobie webcast. And Rebekah, thank you for letting me in on a couple of the little secrets that could have happened yesterday. Both of these helped with providing the webcast coverage.

They're really pretty. I discovered yesterday as I was putting it on my backpack that I apparently lost the LP button I received a few years ago, so while I was bummed about that, I'm glad to have the pin to replace it. /cs
Originally Posted By velogirl Thank YOU, Doobekah, for providing the forum that has led to such a wonderful event and led to such wonderful friendships. I had a blast! It was so great to be in my favorite place with friends everywhere. I haven't had that much fun in a long, long time. I'm already planning for next year; I have no qualms about leaving the family anymore (well, 3 days worth of dishes in the sink was interesting...). It was a lot of fun seeing people in DL looking at us and asking "How do all you people know each other?" Anyway, this was just one heck of an event!THANK YOU to all!

A round of thanks and warm hugs goes out from Morva in appreciation for Laughing Place, too. I'm hoping that my sisters and I will all be able to attend the 50th anniversary celebration in a couple of years--with our friends, riverted, dlpostcardguy, DBitz2, parkhopper and all the many OTHER wonderful ducklings out there who help make Laughing Place such a success. (In the meantime, please pray that Orwen has recovered from her mental health problems by then, so that she may be able to pass out the Krispy Kremes to all!)

(Ever wonder what happened ta all them former Laughin' Place ducklin's ya don't see no more? Think about it...) Eeeeeeeeeek! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Originally Posted By SuzieQ All I can say is "WOW!" Actually, now that so many of you have met me, you know I won't shut up there, so..... THANK YOU Doobie and Rebekah. This was an absolutely priceless experience. As I rode in the taxi to the airport with Wendebird, Roberts1398 and goodgirl, we all declared we'd never had so much fun. I feel like I've made lifelong friends, and it's all because of this forum. Anybody ever coordinated a large lunch party before? This is the first one I've done where the bill was passed around to 26 people and came back with more than enough money and no one wanted change! LPer's TOCK! (and my credit card thanks you!) I'm gonna have to find a way to put this trip in the budget every year
Originally Posted By goodgirl Ditto everything said here. As someone relatively new to LP and a first-timer at the LP Meet I felt like I've known many of you for years. The LP Meet was a 1st class event. It was obvious a lot of people put time and effort into making this a success. Thanks to all!

Well I would have taken the rest of the money... but it made it to the head of the table. I'm just kidding! Thanks Doobekah! I could not imagine a better put together event for a website. It was amazing! Covnut
Originally Posted By -em I just have to second the comment on the money left over- as one who always seems to get the shaft on those things I was soo amazed on how there was money left that no-one "claimed"- Very Impressed! -em
Originally Posted By wendebird The punch was very good! The whole even was awesome & I won the raffle, YAY!! Thanks so much Doobekah & everyone who helped pull this event off. It was wonderful!
Originally Posted By WorldDisney Yeah, it sounded cool.

Anyway, although I haven't lived in the states for a few years now, I am from LA and the NEXT time I'm there, I hope there will be another event such as this so I can meet some of you great people .
