Now that I've got my new laptop all straighened out and am pickimg up the signal here in my hotel room in Trevose, I guess I'll be successful in posting this. Us old farts do have our problems with this newfangled technology. For one thing, I still can't receive or send e-mail on the laptop, but the one back in Florida should be collecting everything for me - I hope.
First off, thanks to host Bob and all the others who pitched in to make this a very interesting afternoon. Don't know how he got things so well organized as far as who came with what food, but it all worked out nicely. And, of course, not to forget the task of preparation, that all turned out fantastically. Capping it off, that chocolate cake was a killer!
The number of attendees (12?) was also a nice manageable number, and just right so that all of us could talk about some of our specal interests and discoveries, and show off the pines-related things they brought with them. I was quite impressed with the wide age span of the attendees, and with the number of ladies who attended.
Since I'm getting a bit carried away here, I'll wrap this up after once more thanking Bob and family for their much-appreciated efforts Saturday.

I would love a chance to explore with some of you at some point.
