I'm compiling a gallery of weekend fun pics, and when I went to run the batch, found out there's 55 photos :D

Here's the gallery- lemme know if you want any prints, the originals are a bit better- I had to resize and compress to get these up on Facebook.

Am I not allowed to see these (since I am not on Facebook)?

At the bottom of every album is a share this album with your friends if they are not on facebook link. It's what I used to post mine. Perhaps those who are posting their photos on FB can use that link so everyone can enjoy them.

I'm just glad :iSm: survived the 55/50! I thought he was unlucky enough when we met him in the parking lot on Saturday - he had to drive all the way home that morning to recover his forgotten park tickets. I guess getting your arm stapled is a sight worse but at least it probably didn't take nearly as long.



We had an incredible time. Hard to fit it all in a short post. Friday night was a legendary moment in time. The ambiance was perfect in that it was everything at once - swank and chic, dressed but not stuffy, warm yet cosmopolitan, casual yet stylish. The food poured out the kitchen, from classic cocktail fare ("Hot weenies, anyone?") to family style courses ("How do I eat soup and carry a drink?") Steve was barraged with wonderful gifts, each one inevitably sending him into conniptions on the floor. It was great seeing those from Steve's other circles, people we have known for many years of amazing events. I wish we could have stayed to hug all the late arrivals and witness the late-night hijinks but the few hours we could be there were still incredibly magical.

Saturday was a different kind of fun, laying around in the room, swimming in the pool. Theo did spectacularly well, as he always does.

There was something so right about the suite setup. In many ways it was a dream come true for us long-time APers. We've always wanted a lounge with air conditioning, unlimited laying around benefits, full food service and bar, and perhaps even a pool? The fact that it used to be a swanky space but had the magic sucked out of it over the years only to be given a turbo injected theming boost by our awesome hosts made it even more apropos.

Thankfully, we have today to recover. All three of us needed a break. Theo had a 3 hour nap this morning...and so did I. GD is napping on the couch as I type this.

Infinite thanks to Steve and his crew of master chefs, interior designers, and general mischief makers. You are legends in your own time. *tip of the hat*

Happy Birthday, everyone. :cool:

BTD thanks for the tip, I fixed my album
