+ purplekow Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 Anyone else hoping there will be a 25th Palm Springs get together. Oliver has done usch a great job all these years and I hope he is up to another go. It would be understandable though very sad if this is not to be. No pressure Oliver, just hoping to make my reservations and such. + jrhoutex, + sf westcoaster, + m_writer and 7 others 9 1

Vin Marco Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 (edited) 🤞🏽 A long and lovely weekend I've cum to enjoy... fingers crossed 🤞🏽 To think I lived in Palm Springs all those years and only started attending a few years ago... had I known the quality of humanity that shows its face, I would've started attending YEARS ago... I find myself breaking one of my own rules, actually Groucho Marx's philosophy of : "I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member" - Groucho Marx 😜 Edited September 26, 2024 by Vin Marco + sf westcoaster, + BobPS, thomas and 2 others 3 2

Lucky, I do remember stopping by Blue Coyote in February, 2004 and meeting you, Charlie and others for the first time - about eight people - after being picked up at the airport by my friends. I stayed with them for two weeks, after having been there for a week in October, 2003. The next year - 2005 - I rented my first condo for January and February. And "the rest is history"!😄 + sf westcoaster, + Charlie, thomas and 1 other 4

I didn't move into the house where we held the first event until the end of August. But feel free to believe whatever you want. Perhaps someone else held an event in 2004 that I did not know about. Lucky, I apologize and am embarrassed. I went back, reviewed my records and found I did not rent my first condo until 2006! Therefore, when I saw you at Blue Coyote it had to have been 2005, as you say. Somewhere I lost a year.🙃 + Charlie 1

+ Lucky Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 All apologies accepted! The fact is that the Palm Springs Weekend has been going on for a long time now. Yes, I started it, but @Oliver is the one who turned it into the big success it has become. Kudos! + Vegas_Millennial, Vin Marco, + BobPS and 3 others 3 1 2

I think he replied, "Maybe..." + Pensant 1
