    I'm glad you're going to get to go! I wish I could, but it's not in the budget. Have a great time!

    You are SO RIGHT!!!
    How cool and Buzz you will love it, words just can't really tell the feelings you get and will take home with you.

    Can't wait to meet you in person and hug your neck!

    How long ya stayin
    I REALLY am considering going. However, the budget probably does not allow me to go the entire time. Sooooo.....I was wondering if those going would share what days they will be there so that I can chose days that would allow me to meet the most of my CNS friends. Would you be willing to share that info?

    Smiles,
    Dawn

    great!
    Wish I could go and see everyone too! We're already spending money on a cruise this summer and October is such a busy time with kids in school- plus, I've already left them a few days at a time with doing my sauna detox and there may be more, so I don't want to schedule anything else that takes me away from the family, for now anyhow.

    I'm glad you're going, Clift, good to get out! I've thought of you often recently and want you to know I'm still praying for you and your situation. Wish I could be a fly on the wall during the time everyone is meeting each other, conversing, and laughing.

    Hugs to you,
    Lisa

    If I can swing this and as it gets closer if you think there is anyway you could get there Id be happy to let you stay in my room. Im going to send a note to our friend Sara(sasjourney)as well. I would love to see her be able to come too.

    Rachel CP is Colon Palooza
    Back in 2004, some of here decided it was time we met in person so we planned out first Colon Palooza in Biloxi Miss. 4 of us were there since several had to cancel at the last minute due to treatments, surgeries etc. Back then we had them every 6 months until 2007 when the event became an annual one. CP1-Biloxi 1/2005, CP2-Las Vegas 10/2005, CP3-Austin 4/2006, TX, CP4-Halifax NS Canada 10/2006, CP5-Nashville 10/2007, CP6-San Francisco 11/2008, CP7-Key West, Fla 10/2009, CP8-Ft Worth Tx 2010 and now CP9 in Chicago in October of this year.

    It is a celebration of life and lives and is a blast! Meeting each other and the immediate connection you feel is amazing and hard to describe. It always surprises me how much we laugh while there and there has NEVER been any bickering. We have a block of rooms at a hotel for a discounted rate and I'll find and bump that thread so you can read more.

    Dawn, since some come from pretty far away some will be there the entire week but the best days are Thursday night for the official kickoff party and Friday nights are always a blast. The specific events aren't planned yet but by Sat night things are winding down and with early Sun AM flights your best bets would be Thursday and/or Friday nite. Em is only coming in for a short time too so you may want to check with her. I'll be there Wed-Sun.

    Keep those questions coming and let's make this one our bestest ever!!!

    Thanks Lisa!
    Thanks for the info, Lisa. Thursday and Friday sounds like the days to be there.I will have to check with Emily...sure would be great to "meet" both of you as you were so welcoming and kind to me when I first joined and my inspirations to REALLY look at what I was eating.

    How great to able to meet Buzz and the others who are going (not sure who is)too.

    Im getting excited.....Im going to try my darndest to make this work!

    It is quite the experience!!! And wow! Chicago!!!

    Does anyone know about Sundance? Is he and darling wife coming?

    Have a GRAND time, all!!!! I'm still not completely saying No...but we just do our country switch on October 3, so it depends on what's waiting for us here when we reach our American home....
