So wonderful, yet Ironic as Nick said, to be able and log on for a few minutes before work starts.
And there you all are once again - like going back in time.  Brad, Terry, Sal, Connie, Jari, Wayne, Catia, Nellie,
Nick, Rob, Nick in Idaho, Fritz, Jack, Martina, Sarah, Heidi, Carol, Tom, and so many others who have been gone for awhile (me especially included in the 'gone for awhile') but are all here now plus those who never left and the newer arrivals. 
Jackie would love this.  It is so good to see it happening even under these circumstances. 
And the pictures Brad, what memories.
Love and Hugs to all of you.  David

I am here too.
What a sad, sad day yesterday...finding out about Heath and then Jackie not long after.

*Hugs* to everyone. Jackie was such a bright, loving light to so many of us. I remember the laughter at Brad's, and smoking on the back porch with her and Heidi...   ::)

I've mised you all, and will keep you in my thoughts.

It's strange how I can feel such sadness and yet, seeing you all, old friends here, fills my heart with with such joy.

Jackie would want it that way. She would want us to smile and celebrate, so that's what I have to focus on.

I realize this is off topic, but I thought some of you might be interested in knowing that "Papa" Jack Weil, owner of Rockmount shirts died yesterday at 79 yrs.  He created the snap-front shirts that we all now know from Brokeback.   Sparky and I went to the store this past summer and met and talked to him for a while. He was an interesting character and well known here in the Denver area.  Jan

So true here as well Jari.  And though I may not be around much, by no means have I forgotten all of you.
I have the BBQ memories - and more - and I will never forget.  I think of you all more than you know. 
With love and hugs to all.  David

David,

It is good to see you.

I think it was your picture of jackie at the Metro Station, showing her at her best.

Thanks
