Well up here in the hot country, I'm a havin my cuppa on the decka and guess whata, 58 degrees. Burr. Tomorrows forcast isn't on the warm side. So I mean my Thongs are out at this point. Guess I'll wear a flower in my hair! Not a San Francisco flower tomorrow but a Hawaiian flower!
Our meeting point is very small almost a take out place. Not sure how many tables, but dress warm and we can have a tailgate party in the large parking lot!
Have a safe drive everyone, see you tomorrow!
Aloha,

Glen, we forgive you. However you have to serve a penance.... or whatever the churches call it. You have to post your photo on the yahoo website Ed created

It was so nice to meet everyone today. Can't believe I'll be the first of us to make the move. The next time I see each of you it will be sitting on my lanai. How exciting! Thanks Art for setting it up.

Hey Glen just do like the rest of us, get your drivers license photo from 15 years ago and call it good!! Hey my sis told me Saturday delete that ugly picture of me. I said hey wait it's a good photo and in 5 years you're going to think that is your best picture ever! LOL
Art I would like to say thanks so much for you taking the initiative and setting up this remote party for us all. The Ohana Hawaiian BBQ was ONO, very large and we all enjoyed a gathering and fine lunch. As we were taking up 1/2 of the cafe, we then retired to the patio infront of Starbucks. Sharing an after lunch iced coffee under market umbrellas, sunshine and talk story. It was so super to meet our one day friends and neighbors! To talk face to face of one day dreams and plans with those who truly understand the passion!!

And Carrie, the little Fiona and Kaya are even more darling in person!
We were 15 and just want to say so sorry we missed Ralph and Ed of San Jose, and Hooligal (must of had a gig!). 8 photos at the above site for those who are interested.
Again Art, twas ono and do again!

Glen, just a shot of you in your sarong would be fine!
Mella, we're also sorry our schedules did not allow us to be there. Love the pics! So here's an invitation for next year's Wannabee potluck in our back yard in San Jose for all of us who won't quite be there yet. We have seating for twenty or more, so when the weather turns nice, we'd love to host! All Puna-already-there folks are welcome as well.
Finally, Noel post those pics!

Thanks Art for putting this together. It was great meeting you and your family.
Mella, I hope your cat problem will be over soon.
Rob, good luck for being the first one.
Noel, Wayne, Bob, Laura, David, Glen, and Gene- It was great meeting all of you. I have learned a few more things about living in Puna. Sorry i don't remember everyone name because there are so many people. Me and Hannah are looking forward to meet you all again.
