New Years at Meg and Joey's

Me, Dana, Jillian (Gilbert), Meg and Maili doing some poses in front of the Christmas tree. I look like I am leaning over to pass gas... not sure what that is all about. Was a NYE of good food, drinks, board games and Ryan Seacrest. Sad to say, we were all in our own beds before 1AM.

Dana and Joe's Christmas Party

We were supposed to be goofing off.... and I apparently tried to pull of sexy; didn't work! LOL BUT... from L to R we have Marissa, Meg, Dana and me.

You can see that the guys are all in the den to our right... us gals flocked to the dining room and hung out... Meg, me, Marissa, Dana, Maili, Anne-Marie, Katie, a blonde woman and Erika (in the chair below Anne-Marie). Man... what a night! GOOD TIMES.

Girls Night Out - Stage 1, The House Party!

Dana... this is pretty typical for Dana. Laughing until she crys, love that about here. She's my best bud.
Ummmm! Well, this is a pipe, probably used for opium some 50-60 years ago... belonged to my grandfather Pop Nelson. So, what are Kate and I doing with it? Not a whole lot actually. Pure entertainment.


Kate sniffing the wine and all its.... ummm, not sure actually. Huh.



Sumer and Katy just sitting on the ol' sofa... legs crossed, blonde hair and blue jeans.

SIde bar... Meg dances for us!

Girls Night Out - Stage 2, On the Town!

Come on in Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrllllllllllssssssssssssssss! Kate and Dana... in all their glory.

Meg, Dana and Kate.... push those people right on out of that booth, that's right!

Well Meg.... does this mean you are taken?

No words can explain this. Well then....!

Girls Night Out - Stage 2.5, Running into the Guys!

Dana and Jeff with all smiles.

Kate and her Hubbie Josh.

My Car!!!

Sooooo.... the morning after the GNO, and I mean at like 6AM, my car was thug-a-fied. I woke up to what I thought was a bear or some cageless beast roaming downtown for some grub... as I heard trash can after trash can being tipped over in the alley ways of our townhomes. I got up and looked outside and it was these 2 drunk guys. I yelled out... said a few choice words... got a nice gun threat tossed back at me... called the police. By the time the police arrived, like 5 mins later, "Someone's Car" had been damaged. The police pulled up during the rock bashing. Best part was.... it was MINE and they didn't even know it was mine. I just failed to park it in the garage after dropping off Marissa. This is the car... after the sun came up.

Dana and Jeff standing there in shock... arms crossed and pissed.

Windshield and passanger window all nice and cracked to bits. Thank goodness for safety glass... didn't shatter.

Oy! The finder and grill. Lovely. And guess who paid for it all... not the thugs!

Laura comes to town!

My friend Laura flew in from Atlanta for some training. I showed her and her South African friend (name has already slipped my mind) around downtown Denver. I miss how funny Laura is... she needs to come back! Come back Laura!!!

At Maggiano's drinking some wine and eating more than any one should ever eat in their lives. Hehee!

Here is why they call it Aspen/Snowmass.... that is all there is with some everygreens splashed here and there.

Headed back down the mountain on the lift. Some downhill bikers are headed up to ride down.

Ahhhhhhhhhh! The aspens in Aspen.

Pro Mtn. bikers in line-up before the race. You can see the #1 plate Subaru-Gary Fisher lead rider JHK also known as Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski.

Here is the guy who won.... Geoff Kabush. He is also the #1 rider in Canada.

Look at these Pro's with folks holding umbrellas for them. (hehee)

JHK standing with some other Pro's. Okay, JHK looks like my friend Scott Ragan... it is his twin, no doubt.

Blast the Mass.... Aspen Mtn. Bike Race

Jeff chasing down his competition just before the finish! Yes, he passed him and one other guy moving him to the 3rd Place overall finish instead of 5th. Goooooooooo Jeff!!!

Back in the 1970's lodge in SnowMass..... Jeff covered in dirt, check out the shoes!

Nice and clean and packing up his gear before he heads over the the podium to get his plate.

Downhill riders heading up the lift to prepare to bust it out through the course hoping not to break any bones.... although, few were taken away this day from broken collar bones and other bones. OUCH... and those screams... not good.

They didn't end up doing the ceremonies until 6:30PM, instead of the scheduled 2:00PM time.... so once again, most folks had left. We stayed for Jeff's photo Op. LOL 3rd Place... good job!!!!!
