BACK FROM HALLOWEEN
« on: October 21, 2002, 11:34:17 PM »
I am back from the event and hope to post some of my photos within the week. Lara Parker, Diana Millay, Terry Crawford , Marie Wallace and Roger Davis were in attendance.  One of the special moments at the event was a surprise birthday celeberation for Lara Parker. At which a cake was rolled in complete with candles and pix of Angelique as the DS fans sang to her. I will share more about the event when I post my photos.
It is a good day because I am still ticking!

It was great to see you Vam and so many others from the board. I had a great time and was happy the weather held out for Sunday ( a great sunny day at Lyndhurst).
It was great seeing Lara at a smaller gathering and although I had heard some things in the past that made me nervous asking her to sign a book, I found her to be warm, shy and gracious. I also think she had quite a good time dancing at the banquet ( as did our own Profstokes). Smiles were everywhere that night! Vam and I sat at the same dinner table with Diana Millay and that was fun and interesting. Marie and Terry were their usual charming selves and Roger Davis was Roger Davis :-) when he was there. The crowd was much smaller than before and the only problem with that was there was a lack of questions sometimes for the cast to answer but it gave everyone plenty of time small talk and catch up. I only wish there wasn't so much time before the next DS gathering in August!

Hello, VAM and Teresa!  It's good to know that you two made it home safely.  

This was quite a weekend, and though it had its share of ups and downs, I'm really glad that I was able to attend.  The memories will have to sustain me through the next ten months until Festival 2003.  I really do think that DS events should be spread evenly through the year--how about one every three or four months, lol?  I hope to begin writing my weekend report soon (though I'll probably just describe a couple of events here and provide a link to a longer report elsewhere) and perhaps even include a few photos.

I'm glad you had a good time, VAM and others from the board! I went 2 years ago to the Halloween event, will probably be the only time I make it there, glad I got to go once.

Has anyone heard from Denise Nickerson lately?  I always remember seeing her at a Halloween event that was organized at the Lockwood Mathews House in Connecticut several years ago.  

That is nice about the birthday cake for Miss Parker.  It sounds like a fun event.  I love seeing Terrayne Crawford--she has such marvelous energy.  And it's always fun to see what Diana's been up to.

The first day Terrayne and I spent over 4 hours talking to each other. I also had the opportunity to have breakfast with her on Monday before leaving for home.
She is a lovely lady!

I had another interesting few moments where I was the only fan in the room with Lara, Diana, and Terrayne viewing the Lyndhust pre-tour video. The rest of the attendees were in another location being treated to a Q & A with Roger Davis. Looks like I got the better option of the visit.;)

No, he didn't ( I think he was under the weather as were a few others) but I could see that gleem in his eye and knew he was just dying to do it!

Teresalita is right, I was under the weather and retired fairly early as early goes. I did have the urge to sing a Partridge Family song or two, but they failed to play any before I went to bed. :(
