I'm going by Trader Vic's this evening and will give them our final (but flexible) count. If your name is on the list and you CAN'T come PLEASE email me ASAP. If your name is NOT on the list and you WANT to come...please email me ASAP.
See everyone on the 5th!

Did everyone have a great time at the new Traders Vics? I was in San Francisco that weekend and had to miss the party. Let me know if you plan on having another gathering soon.

Hey!
I live in the Dallas area and am planning on attending Satuday evening. Cinco De Mayo is my son's birthday, so I may bring him along.

BTW, I sent PM's a few days ago to everyone who plans on attending with some extra info that I'm not going to post here (like my phone #). If you haven't read it yet please check your PM's.

Just wanted to say my Wahine and I are about to leave the house in an hour a so. I hope everyone who is traveling any distance has a safe trip and hope to see all who have RSVP'ed can make it out. I'm going to try to pick up some name tags for all of us, but someone might want to do that also incase I don't get a chance.
I got off the phone with my family and they just got their electricity back on from the storms a few days ago. I don't know how stable that connection will be, but I'll try to get online and check in tonight or tomarrow (got to clean the car up).
But anyways, after 2 years in the making it looks like everything is coming to those who wait. Thanks to Kenike for handling all the reservations and communicating with TV and TC. I have a few extra gifts for you that I think will go great in your collection of Dallas tiki restraunts.
One last thing. For those who are coming up I-45 for the first in a long time, there is construction going on, so becareful and watch out for the local idiots who weave in and out of construction zones. Unless it's moved South, it was North of Waxahachie and stopped at the Dallas county line.
See yall soon.

Our San Antonio guests have arrived and said that there was not a construction bog down at Hillsboro like there usually is, so that is good. I can hardly wait for tomorrow, whoohoo!

Bottoms Up!!! hiccup

Hi everyone! =D
I've been absent from the boards for so long. I quit posting my art work for awhile and kinda disappeared. I really miss this place.
I'm going to try and make it for drinks tomorrow. I haven't even made it to Trader Vic's since the opening! Isn't that just awful?!
I was always hoping to get a friend to go with me to check out Trader Vic's, and now I'll get to go check it out with about 25 new friends! =D
I'm acutally alergic to rum (did I hear screams of horror?!? I believe I did), so I hope Mai Tai's taste okay with whisky.

Glad to hear you'll try to stop by tomorrow night!
Try a vodka mai tai...not too sure how whiskey would taste in a mai tai.
Feel free to stay for dinner...we can make room!

Thanks Kenike =D
I totally agree that vodka would taste better.....however...LOL...I kinda got sick on vodka (and Everclear, yikes) too many times back in my younger days and now can't stand even the smell of either. ;D C'est la vie. =D
