Hi everyone! ^_^
First off, LMFAO was a blast, thanks to all of you who attended! (I'm making a note here: Huge Success It's hard to overstate my satisfaction!)
There is definitely going to be one next month, especially considering what happened towards the end of the lake portion... When Growly and I were packing up and getting ready to leave--we'd both de-suited already--this 93-year-old lady comes over to us. She'd gotten the word apparently that there were cartoon animals running around the lake, and her daughter (who was in her 50's I'm guessing) had brought her by to see us. I'd gotten a little bit of warning from a couple friends, so Growly and I got back in suit quickly (minus the wings) and greeted her.
It turns out she's suffering from cancer, and has a life expectancy of zero...basically living on borrowed time...so it was very, very moving to us when she complimented our group, and said something along the lines of us being "artists, expressing ourselves through any medium" (please correct me if you were there and remember more closely what she said)...
We told her a little about our group, and that we would be having this meetup monthly, on the first Saturday of the month (this last one was on Sunday because of the PS). So I sincerely hope she will be there for our next meet, which is set for Saturday, February 4th. Hope you all can come down again!

Also, after the old lady and her family left, Growly and I were told not to get out of suit just yet, because a Water Department Lake employee came over in the truck, and at first I'm thinking we were in trouble and they were going to try and shut down our meet...but they ended up asking us for a picture! So we climb in the back of the truck and pose next to the orange light on the top, snap a few photos...and as we're climbing out of the truck bed, the lady who'd told us about the employee had lowered the gate to help us get out--but ended up ripping the gate off its hinges!
So what follows is probably one of the strangest and most hilarious things I can remember at a meet... Two fursuiters and several furries pushing, kicking and wedging a truck gate back into place (which we succeeded in doing, with much cheering afterward ). ^_^

So yeah, good times! XD

But on to the next matter at hand: Who needs a ride to FC? I'll be leaving San Diego sometime Wednesday before noon (hopefully), and if you'd like to tag along, all I ask is that you help pitch in for gas. ^_^ I'm going to try and pack light so that there's room in Night Fury's trunk to put a bunch of stuff in. XD

So please note me if you need a ride, or text/call me if you know my number! I'll try and check the comments on here too. Hope to see you at FC, whoever's going, and take care everyone! >^.=.^<
