Leaving Paradise

[+ Oliver]

Unfortunately that time has arrived once again – I must leave Paradise. My shadow and I will leave Palm Springs tomorrow morning to head back across the country until next year. It has been beautiful and I’ve had the pleasure of having a few “visitors”. And, of course, Hooville Weekend was entirely fun, even better than before. It was wonderful to meet some new friends and also reacquaint with old ones. Thank you to everyone here and in Southern California for making me feel welcome. See you next year!

Oliver, California thanks you for helping our economy (and her boys) and will await your return with open arms! Enjoy the drive and the sites along the way.

[+ Charlie]

We will miss you, and your shadow, until next year.

[Guest greatness]

oh my

 

Have a safe trip~~~ I bet everybody in Palm Springs will miss you.

[OneFinger]

Drive carefully as you venture to your "other" home.

 

Be sure and stop along the way to enjoy some of the local talent.

Won't seem like Paradise here in California without you.

Drive safely.

[Romann]

Drive safely friend and give Shadow a big hug for me and toss a few toys and bones his way. He was such a sweet pup but not as sweet as you are! What's the old saying, "Sweet and nice like sugar and spice". Please let all of us know your adventures along the way and that you arrived safely to your final destination. I've always said that one of the best parts about traveling is returning to your own surrounds and personal items which I'm looking forward to tomorrow when I fly back to Dallas to be picked up by my dog sitter who will be being my most beloved and very much missed Buster-Boo the Beagle who I miss very much and always do when I'm away.

 

Much love and big hugs Oliver!

Couples

 

Thanks for sharing your visit with us. We enjoyed your company, and wish you a safe drive home. Onward, Shadow!

[NYTomcat]

Well as much as this is California's loss it is us east of the Mississippi's gain. I'll be happy to have you closer and certain to make it time to see you while your in the "neighborhood"

 

Give Shadow a kiss for me and em.... do shadow a favor ... let him ride with the window down at least part of the way.

By the way, the APE-WD will miss you as well.

Utah

 

We have arrived for the night in Cedar City, UT. Lovely setting, but it's cold! I have to put on clothes. Oh, and thanks all for the "send offs" - we have been driving safely and will "do everything" safely.

Hope you and shadow have safe travels! Are you stopping in Texas on the way? ;-)

[+ Oliver]

... Are you stopping in Texas on the way? ;-)

Sorry - we're taking a more northern route this time. Maybe next year?

 

 

... do shadow a favor ... let him ride with the window down at least part of the way.

All the vents on his side are pointed at him.

 

 

... Onward, Shadow!

If only he'd learn to drive!:o

 

Be sure and stop along the way to enjoy some of the local talent.

Oh, but I will - SLC here I come!

[Guest greatness]

oh my!

 

Well you'll bring warmth to SLC!

[raulgmanzo]

If only he'd learn to drive!

 

But wasn't Shadow driving when you got stuck in the snow on your way out?

 

Enjoy the drive but don't dawdle too much, the midwest misses you.

[OneFinger]

Oh, but I will - SLC here I come!

 

You're making good time. Cedar City is only about 4-5 hours from SLC. Still very cold here and rainy but looking forward to your arrival.

[+ Oliver]

Snow???

 

What's this nonsense? I wake up and look out the window - THREE inches of snow on the ground and my car, etc! I'm used to looking UP at the snow while swimming in the pool. Shadow, we're not in Paradise anymore.

[+ Charlie]

Forecast high is 88 here today, 93 tomorrow. I told you it was too soon to leave. Poor little Shadow.

[+ friendofsheila]

Sorry I missed the weekend this year. Next time!

[JackTwist]

Home yet?

 

Hey Oliver, Here's hoping you've made it home safely.

[Guest andrewd]

What's this nonsense? I wake up and THREE inches

 

I know how you feel buddy. I really hate waking up to THREE INCHES also. I mean, why bother even waking up? I won't rise for anything less than four myself. But then again, I've been called slutty so take that for what it's worth. Butt by all means, please. Take it. Like a good boy. Your cheesey mac daddy awaits the return of thee & super Shadow. I'll be sure to have my boys in attendance next year. Oh, yeah, and I'll make sure Santo & Carson are here too! xoxoxo

[Guest EricAppleworthy]

Thanks for visiting Palm Springs. We visit one weekend per month to relax and unwind. This is easy since we live only a few hours away. We can't wait until we retire and move to Palm Springs permanently!
