OK! Here at last are the pictures from both DU meet-ups! Pic heavy...
Edited on Sun Jun-25-06 11:49 PM by CaliforniaPeggy
Yesterday, XemaSab and I met in Malibu for lunch, followed by a lovely stroll in a pet store and a bookstore!

And today, she joined Starbucks Anarchist and me in Hollywood for munchies and smoothies!

The pics in Hollywood are from SA....the rest are mine!

4. My dear Kerrytravelers!
I am sorry! I sure didn't mean to leave you out!

Xema and I have been talking for some time about doing this, and so it happened this weekend.....

We did have a very good time!

Next time I promise to broadcast it far and wide, OK? :yoiks:

10. My dear KC2!
Well, you know....we practically have!

I consider knowing someone here on DU nearly the same as in 'real life.'

We talked about the same things we do here.....

Yeah, we were happy that Xema caught up with us too....it was a little chancey!

Thank god for cell phones!

We had a ball!

And now, your patience has been rewarded! Hope my thread met your expectations, sweetie.....

30. One more thing, Xema is quite an attractive lady
But, alas, I'm married. Not that I'm complaining, you know.

Just sayin'

36. You know, I didn't see any.....
We weren't in there very long!

It disturbs me to see small animals caged ........:cry:

We did spend a lot more time in the bookstore!

I always let my bird have lots of time out of the cage.

I absolutely detest seeing puppies in those small cages. Makes me so angry. :grr:
