~ The Meet and Other Mayham ~

Part of a meet is a good dose of chaos! And lots of people, ponies, and good food, good friends.... Here's a pictorial overview of happenings at the meet. Anyone with more photos of the event who would like to have them posted, please Email me!. We would certainly love to see them :)

About Us ~

I'm sure you all know us well by now (especally those who lasted all three days of ponydom with us) but for those of you who might have missed the introductions or was just too shy to ask, here we are!

Above, 'tis I, Lady Whimsy!
(also known as Neena in other circles)

Left, partner in crime, Sky Rocket!
(answers to Tanya on occation, too)

And no, I have no idea why Tanya isn't wearing a costume. She had a costume. Really. My sister and I saw to it that she did, we have witnesses.

Setting Up ~

With all good things comes at least one good mess. This is ours... in progress. The Oscar the Grouch doll sitting on the couch looks about as impressed as Greg did when he saw what was happening to his living room. (He was not planning to be there the actually meet, smart guy, but the pre-meet festivities gave him a bit of a shock. Part of it was the number of ponies that invaded his house; I really want to know, what part of "pony meet" did he think did not include ponies?)

The Food ~

Here's a picture of one of the really great cakes that The Bad Doggie presented for the occasion. Now, there were two cakes, but I seem to have misplaced my pictures of the second one. Both were very, very yummy. And goodness, look at that pink hair on Up Up and Away! (yeah, I know the candle light does not do it justice).

I also have to extend a huge amount of thanks to Anita, who turned out to be the BBQ Guru, and kept turning out burgers & hot dogs as fast as we could eat them up. She even made us breakfeast the next morning :) I need to have guests like that over more often.

The Meet and 2am ~

Sleep? What's that?

You certianly don't need it when there are ponies around! Here is The Bad Doggie, Violet Starshine, Flicker, Baby Ice Crystal & Sky Rocket - who's not sleeping, just resting her eyes - having thier fifth slice of cake. We were all a bit hyper.
