Hi Everyone!

Gee, thanks for all the thoughts! We just now TODAY got a cable connection hooked up in our new condo, so I've been out of touch for a while.

Before that was a 5000+ mile drive back to Seattle from Florida. One of the best parts was that we stopped in Dallas/Ft. Worth and saw Ngaire and Ken, Linda and Ron, and Peggy and Jerry. The 'other' Wolfs were even kind enough to put us up for a night. It really was all a great time. The whole trip took 23 days, but who was counting ...

Anyhow, ROAR 2. We've decided to not do this for several reasons. First of all, there's all the $$$$$$ going to the WC for 2007. Second, there's the fact that we'll be going to Mateya during that trip. Thirdly, we'll have already been on three safari trips.

I'm sorry to miss ROAR 2. I really do think our group was without equal. Al and I came into it not having met a soul, and came away from it feeling like we had 35 new friends. However, as much as we like to pretend otherwise, our travel budget IS limited!!

So I guess we'll just have to live vicariously through the board for this one ...

We'll be watching!
