Hi LLLady:LLLady said:Hello
I'm curious.... what is the (SF mini-palooza weekend?)
Can someone tell me what this is
There are a few annual semi-colon get-togethers which are organized by members on this board. In fact there is one this month in Halifax, Nova Scotia. These are called Paloozas.
Our mini-palooza takes from that theme. Kerry, who lives in Austin, TX, is visiting the SF area this weekend. She and I met on this board, so we decided to meet up face to face in SF.
Actually I just got back. We met, had dinner and some wonderful conversations. Kerry, like quite a few other ladies whom I've met through this board, is just so positive, upbeat and all in a modest and understated way, while fight the beast that is cancer. My husband and I are so happy that we had the chance to meet with her. We had a wonderful time!
Cheers,

Palooza is a meeting of semi-colons. They usually meet a couple times a year, if I am not mistaken. They met earlier this year in Austin and they will meet in October in Halifax.LLLady said:Hello

In this case, Ying (JADot) lives in San Francisco (SF) and Kerry is visiting. So, two of them are meeting. -

I did a short clip with pics from Vegas and Austin ~ so just copy the URL and paste. The Vegas clip is a dedication my son Andrew made to Kanort ( Kay ) because she reminded us so much of Mary Tyler Moore. Speaking of Kay I hope she's having a great time in Vegas this weekend. Last week she was in Washington at the COH celebration and next week Halifax, Nova Scotia at CP4.
