WOW! This is gonna be FUN!
I'm really looking forward to seeing all my friends again, and especially happy to have an opportunity to meet and feed a few new ones too!
Merrymeeting - we had just a brief introduction last year at Garwoods, so it'll be nice to have a moment to get to know you this time.
DBA - A huge welcome to the forum, and a great big thank you for your fabulous photographs! I can tell already that we're going to be great friends, just by your signature line - what an absolutely perfect definition of peace.
GravyBoat -

you bet I'm looking forward to seeing you! We've shared far too much sadness this winter, and it's time to emerge and welcome the joys of spring - don't you think?
SunsetBob - it'll be wonderful to see you, too! I hardly got a chance to speak with you at the forum fest last fall, so it'll be great to see you again!
IslandSib - don't you worry your pretty little head, because we could NEVER forget you!!!!!
DRH - Oh how I would LOVE to put on an addition! I think the landlord might be happy to have a bigger building to charge rent in too, but I doubt the city would be all that cooperative!

I do have some wonderfully handy friends, though, so if the opportunity ever arose I know just who to call!
IslandGirl - you're hired!
