Oh my, my...Sounds like a magnificent evening. My goal is to try to finagle an invite to your next CDP.

Otis & A,

Thanks very much for the great evening. We had a great time.

For me the 1991 Kathryn Kennedy was my WOTN, The 1997 Siro Pacenti was #2, followed by the 2001 Neal Family.

VM - funny that the 2004 Tatiarra (in the 2001 Ridge Lytton Springs bottle) was the Parker 98+ point mystery wine. I ended up dumping it. It just tasted "off" not corked or cooked but it just did not taste right. I do not know if it was becasue it was not what I was expecting or if it was an off bottle but either way I would have not guessed that as the mystery wine.

Thanks again,
Rob

Een,

Likewise, Kelly and I really enjoyed meeting you and Mr. Een. Wink How was the race BTW?

-B

It was okay, thanks. He was riding in support of a teammate so he just did his job and we left. It was good that it was so early--still humid but not as cloyingly hot.

Mr & Mrs Otis,

THanks for everything. Great party. It was great to meet new people and see old friends.

You are the host and hostest with the mostest. We're pround of our 3 CDP stripes

...OK, I am trying to figure out how to post photos in this thread and can't seem to get it. If anyone could enlighten me that would be great.

I think most people just create a link to a flickr or photobucket or other photo sharing site.

Got this from tools>help and the 3rd choice down is how to post photo albums.

First, be sure the administrator has enabled photo albums and given you permission to post them. You can check your permission using the "Go" button -> Personal Zone -> Permissions links.

To post a photo album, click the "New" tab and then the "Photo Album" link.

A photo album wizard will take you through the following steps:

Step 1 - "Basics" - provide basic information about the album, choose whether to allow comments, and select your notification options.

Step 2 - "Upload" - upload files from your own computer. Note: there may be size and number limits set by the administrator.

Step 3 - "Organize" - add titles and captions to each uploaded photo. You may also add new photos, delete photos or re-order photos in this step.

Step 4 - "Preview" - confirm the appearance of the final album before you approve it for viewing by other members.

Please note: An administrator may require approval of photo albums before they go live.

If you are the owner of the album, you may edit the album after it has gone live by using the "edit" icon in the bottom right corner of the gallery view.

I am DYING to see pics of this event.

Een is correct, simply use one of the online photosharing sites and post the link here. Be sure to make the album "Public" or whatever designation allows all users to gain access.

The WS photo album function is NOT enabled. Marvin is saving up for another trip to Scotland....

Don't build it up too much, she did not take that many photos.

If you really wanted to see all of our smiling faces, you should have been there.

You really know how to hurt a guy.....

PH

Don't worry. We weren't all smiling. I scowled the whole time

You should have seen the grins on our faces enjoying the '97 Siro Pacenti

Actually, it's been a long time I've seen SO MANY smiling, truly happy, faces in one spot. Truly, it was a great event!!

How could I have forgotten the cigars
Partagas, Bolivar, Romeo y Julietta. Very nice!
Fortunately at the end of the wine tasting. My taste buds were dead to the wine after that! But that was to be expected.

Are you talking about the Texas meets Maryland dinner in D.C.?

That's the one. I believe it was labeled the 'Texas Invasion'
