    This will be turned into something else later.
    Most likely something nonsensical (go figure LOL!)

    Anywho, the balluminaria is Nov 26th (tonight) at Eden Parks Mirror lake.
    It starts at 4 pm, and the balloons will light up at 6 pm.
    Might be worth at least drving through and taking a peak if you are on you way elsewhere,

    This thread will self destruct,( or worse yet become some really bad jokes [img]eek.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img] ) by the end of the weekend

    Greg, I really don't think it's appropriate or in the spirit of this board to post something with less than 24 hours notice.

    Since a lot of folks don't check in on weekends, you've probably damaged a good number of psyches by opening this thread. I'm sure there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth that people didn't have the opportunity to attend, just because you were holding out on us.

    Please, make sure it doesn't happen again.

    I am truthfully sorry that I waited.

    I should have had it posted earlier.

    Hopefully the Dec to-do lis will make up for this gaff on my part [img]wink.gif[/img]

    The Big Sexy was aghast when he opened the Sunday paper and saw full color photos of Baluminaria staring him in the face. He places full blame on greg for missing this event as he was not given notice.

    greg deserves to be hung on a gaff.

    As always, I stand by my typo LOL! [img]eek.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

    Sorry you missed it reason, but I accept no blame for your not being there.

    You'll be really upset to find out that I just put two things that happen in Nov on the Dec list so that the Nov list can drop down the board LOL!
    One of them is tonight [img]eek.gif[/img]
