Hi all. Thanks for the welcomes, and we really look forward to meeting those of you on MUSH as well! CJ - we love Portland. In fact I was just reading a Portland travel guide last night (picked up during an obsessive trip to the library which involved checking out way too many books on Alaska) and said to Mary, "Gee this Portland sounds like a really great place!" I've never been to the Advertising Museum, though. Maybe we should check it out.

Liz - we're busy planning 2006 also - and beyond. We're not sure when we're going to fit in Amsterdam, England, Hawaii, plus that full week at some Four Seasons that is my fantasy... :)

We'll try to get a photo up maybe. I don't photograph well. If any of you ever saw the episode of Friends where Chandler has to get his picture taken, that is me.
