Caesar, The Dog Whisperer, can only in his dreams experience a more balanced pack than what we had this weekend!!!!

I'm not going to even attempt to describe the weekend as others have so eloquently started "trying" to explain our experience. It was so amazing no words can fully describe but many beautiful words have been posted to give you a glimpse into our unbelievable experience. Just a start folks.... It was damn close to a religious experience (if one leans that way).

Imagine a successful hive without the need for soldiers and no stings. The moment anyone crossed the threshold they instantly integrated themselves into the hive.

I was beyond mental and physical exhaustion before Kay entered my frenzied world Wed morning. I could not have made it to and through the weekend without her most exceptional organizational skills and all the work she put in. Her lists were invaluable. Kaypers packed everything and loaded the car while I was frantically running around gathering stuff up.

I did appoint myself Queen Bee (It wasn't hard with so many exceptionally talented worker bees who merrily and effortlessly took care of all of us.) and planted my .... on a stool moving only for an occasional potty break or to drag myself to and from the bed.

Amazing food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only thing I would change would be chairs instead of the tall stools. I'll plead dumber in that I didn't notice till way late that Kaypers had put a sofa pillow on her stool. Dumb Broad Feisty. But, let it be known that the larger houses that sleep 18 have a giant table that seats 18 in regular chairs.

So looking forward to REO REUNION Two. Waiting till next year will be hard.

I love all you most incredible peeps more than I can express.

Love and hugs, Feisty Alice

BTW.... Damn Scott, I never did get the celery hearts out for you. Guess I'm gonna have to come up for an overnight and fix ya some stuffed celery hearts, grab Clyde, and hit one of those great restaurants you two frequent.
ya come on up we will have a fun time of it :)

Oh, yeah, Ratman "Ron," (sic) I just ordered 2xx ml, 18mg, MtVapor Butterscotch and same in 0 nic. DH thinks this may be just the juice that he can use to reduce his nic and still keep the TH.

Ratman Rob sent me home with 30 ml, 6mg nic of it, FOUR MONTHS STEEPED!!!!!! Thank you, thank you. Just a few drops into my RBA, REO loaded with 18mg caramel, was amazing. I've tried so many butterscotch juices and this one is a real treat....... We love the Vapor Kings, too, but it only comes in small bottles unless I'm missing something.

Hugs, Feisty Alice

I am so glad that they worked out for you two. As far as I know, VK only carrys the 10ml bottles of the NicQuid. Can't beat the price on the Mt. Baker stuff tho.

I got the Killer you loaned me up and running in a tank but all of my wire is too big for it so I had to cobble together a coil out of the wire that was on it. I see the potential but hard to say if I am getting a true test of it.

So far I'm only dripping it onto my two RBAs loaded with 18 mg FSUSA caramel. I ordered the 2X extra flavor just like you gave me. It may be a little rich for REO/RBA but I can tone it down with a few drops of no flavor but I think it will be perfect for DH's mini Novas. He's only sampled them on my REOs. Going abruptly from 18 to 6 would have been a waste of a great juice. Amazingly I can do a few drops of the 6 and the richness lasts through several squonkings of the 18 caramel in REO bottle.

I told my work colleagues that i had driven back from Gainsville to home (SE of Houston - by the coast) in 5 hours on Sunday!

"You must have been breaking the speed limit.." "No sh1* Sherlock!"

T

We do to Nashville like that. We're usually pulling into Nashville in the time it takes most peeps to get to Memphis. Last hundred miles pretty harrowing for me, though, as DH is tired and insist on doing 85-100 (don't ask about our Porche days :facepalm:), and it's dark and he's "old" and it's a main cross country trucking route. BUT........... his last ticket, 55 in a 45 work zone, when no workers on site, was a $300 fine and our insurance doubled!!!!! Sucks big time. So we are a little more conservative now. (And we're probably going to fly from now on with so little time and he has free miles.) Glad y'all made it home safely. Hoping delayed honeymoon was great. We all thank you for taking some time out to bless us with your and SMURFs companionship.

I have a special passenger seat hood, fitted under the visor - a bit like horse blinkers, so she doesn't panic and see the speedo! "look right and lower the visor - the hood will drop down - put that on your head - and your panic attack will subside".

I am working on a similar cunning plan for bedroom use but the pillow airbag is causing me design problems like this:

Indeed! I think I have some local friends just have to find them all, we need that map that shows where everyone is generally located so we can spot our friends right away. That'd be cool to see where all the reos are. I still itch. I found out this might not go away so easy. It is a side affect of my meds. Turns out I had another med that keeps it tolerable. Not allowed much sun but the med is temporary for a few months and hopefully worth it. But I can live with a little itch and chapped lips. The other possible side effects were less appealing... *scratches* Glad to see everyone having a good time! Let me see if I can find that map... That'd be cool!

Tried a bit of that 3mm silica wick today - the first coil was a bit of a dog! But this one is much more like Scott's double wick and it's pretty good! I'd make a wick out of old socks if i had to - but i did at least pay very close attention to what you were making and why!

The days of cotton balls may be numbered unless it's an emergency - because i can kill them dead in a day since i vape so much.

Having all over rashes (and lots of itching) from a few ticks crawling on me and biting so benadryl time. Seems like things are crawling all over me everywhere. So sitting and prepping for some nice sleepy snoozing when benadryl hits. So............. have an excuse to get the pictures posted here. Clyde sent me a bunch of pics, via email, Sat night after they got home. They are pretty low resolution. I uploaded them from my phone to computer via bluetooth and then lightened some a bit and then uploaded to Photobucket and just now getting around to posting. Some may have been already posted. A few are pics I took.

I know it's hard to understand that we didn't get a whole lot of pictures but we were all so busy having vaping fun and conversations and how-to's or keeping everyone in beverages, snacks, and fabulous meals, or telling and listening to great stories, etc, etc, etc..... we just forgot to take pictures. Sorry......

I'm still reeling in the wonderment of the whole weekend. I can't begin to thank everyone enough for coming and making a perfect weekend and great memories for all of us.

I'll first post the pics Cldye sent me and comments he made on some, then short video Clyde made, and then a few more pics I took. I lightened most a lot so even if they have been posted they are easier to make out now. Thanks Clyde.

Looks Like the Bahamas to Me (Feisty comment..... It was cold as a witch's tit out but we had loads of windows.)

Room full of Reos, and nobody loaned one to Jack? Really?

I've tried to hold off on posting in this thread, just in case some people have those update alerts that I've heard about; I know that I zoom right over as soon as I see an update here, and that shot of everyone (but poor Jack:ohmy:) with REO in hand was just why I do. So great! I think that Jack must've been caught daydreaming about skydiving in that last pic:laugh:! Thanks so much for all these pics!!


(EEK:oops:! The above blather was posted before the bounty of two whole additional posts from Alice that popped up above me...slow Sunday-style typing, I guess.)
