The space may have been limited, but the goodwill was deep and the fellowship was wide and I would take this opportunity to thank our magnanimous hosts for promoting this event.
Thank you Jordi, Jim and Gail for your support and enthusiasm. It makes the show more than just a show, it becomes a happening.

Through the fabulous pictures and reporting I enjoyed the party and I wasn't even there:-)

Many thanks to Gail, Jim and Jordi! You help make Tucson stand out as a special happening each Feb. And Casa Vicente's paella is a treat and fete to behold! (another view from above)

Ditto Vic and John! This was my third year attending the "happening" (we need T-Shirts made) and it is one of my finest memories of Tucson! We completely missed watching the Chef at work, but from our vantage point in the booth next to the buffet, we visited with a long line of friends as they moved by...and who passed us plates of food....it was GREAT! Thank you so much Jordi, Gail and Jim for making this evening possible! The best part is that you have orchestrated such a gathering of friends from all over the world ...if it ever comes to hotdogs around a bonfire, the lovely food will be missed, but the heart of the evening will endure!

Very best wishes,
Elise

Hi Jordi, Gail and Jim,

Thank you for this excellent and exciting event. Last year it was one of the few I pulled myself out of my room for and very much I was happy I did as I had a wonderful time and enjoyed seeing and talking with so many friends new and old alike.

This year I was attacked by the Tucson crud and was at my worst as the party neared and thus was unable to attend.

Next year for sure!

All I heard from folks was that they had a wonderful time. Your all the very best, thank you for being so great!

All the very best,

John

John,
I heard, during the party, that you were ill. Having had it earlier that week, I can sympathize, ugh, it was awful. Next year, then?
