I love you all and I had such such such a blast!

Next, lemme say that Darren and Jimmy... we now have a love/hate relationship.
For those of you who weren't there... Darren and Jimmy "babysat" my cameras while I was "unable" to use them.
So...
LOVE = your awesome perspective of the fun that I will cherish forever...
HATE = the amount of pictures you sent me home with!!!! ah!!!!! 814. Yes, that's right.

So...
JO = Jimmy's Shots
DM = Darren's Shots
JK = My shots
There are tons of amazing shot from both cameras.
The non-flash ones are all the SLR and the flashed ones are mostly from the little one.

Just a recap...
Arrived Friday in record time and just perfect so that I could see Caitlin, Kyle, Darren, Alan, Dan play at the Parlour!!
It was a great little place with an awesome vibe... hard lighting, but great sound.
This was Caitlin's new session she was trying out and, judging by the response, it will continue to happen! YAY!
We were up late Friday and met a new friend, Kelly... great fun... stayed at her place that night.

Saturday... um... got up a "little" late... went for food, hung around Allison's for a bit and then went out for the night and what a night it was.
I think the pictures will explain all!
We saw a cool street band and then got free dinner at the Chocolate restaurant! Awesome!
Jon, Isaac and Keith were on the gig at O'Neill's along with Dan... absolutely great schtuffffff.
Wow what fun. Seriously.
Who knows what time we made it back to Kellys... but we did and that's all that matters.

Sunday... bday... wooo it was a rough one, but a fun one!
Sunday night was at O'Neill's again and what a time.
Thanks to Allison for the MMMMMMMMMMM cheesecake and Jimmy for gettin' that picture.
Great time at 11th street afterwards.

Turns out Jenifer and Jayne were playin the other gig at the same time!
yay! it was very cool.

And... what would a trip down there be without a little travel/weather drama?
I hit an AWFUL storm and was stranded in a little weird town called Marathon. Oy...
I missed school on Tuesday, but it worked out alright. We certainly got a little bit of a snow dump for sure.
It's beautiful and white out...

AND AND AND... Gráda comes here tomorrow! YAY.

Thanks for lookin'
There are a gazzilion pictures so enjoy :)
