Wow, I think Sadira and I have recovered. This was an awesome party. It was you those who attended this party that made it great.
Lets do numbers first. Out of 33 that was expected we had 28 show up. That is an 84.8% ratio. That is incredible. We had the five drop either due to family, work or illness. All acceptable reasons if you ask me. More numbers. There were 10 new people at this party and in total 14 people were either at their first or second party. These numbers are really amazing.
The missed regulars. We missed Dtrell, TJack ( hope you are feeling better buddy ), Prinny, SmileyTkls. Your presence was sorely missed and your names were mentioned constantly throughout the weekend.
Special thanks go out to the Mods at this party ( other than myself and Sadira ) who paid attention to what was going on. Thank you to Professor Tkl, Natural Tickler and JBFTickler. A great job by you guys. Everyone was safe and happy.
We had people come from 8 different states to this party. I want to thank them for taking the time to make such a trip.
BagelFather from California- thank you buddy for your input and efforts. The Don of Cream Cheese was actually put to work here on Thursday as a furniture mover. Let it be known that our front door will NEVER be the same.
Tickleshotel from Arizona ( enroute to Boston )- thank you for wanting to be part of the show. We had fun having you here. Nothing but good wishes and the best of luck as you start a new life in Beantown.

Stloldg from St.Louis- what a GREAT couple you are. Loved having you here. Now do you believe me that Sadira is DEADLY with those NAILS???
Phatteus from Illinois- Nice to know that there is a Mets fan here in the Mid-West. Sorry to hear you are a Rangers fan but we can't all be perfect. Congratulations on being a winner in our challenge. Phatteus got his entrance fee back by surviving 30 minutes against 9 ladies tickling him. A great job on your part. I know I would have said my safe word.

JBFTTickler and his 2 lees from Michigan- JB thank you again for your help this weekend. To your two lovely lees, thank you for being part of the show. One of his lee's took the challenge as well and won as well. She had about 15 people tickling her and she survived rather easily. She too, received her entrance fee back. Congratulations to Ticklebunny for that. But it is always great seeing you guys. So happy you are our friends.
PokeyInMichigan- it was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you for the kind words you have written and said about us. I believe them to be undeserved but thank you. Also thank you for the chocolate. They will be eaten in due time.
Liontickler from Michigan- got here really early. Thank you for not disappointing me. I was really happy to win that bet.
Also thank you for your undeserved praise and kind words. It is appreciated but not really sure that we should take that kind of credit.
Gigglegal76 from Michigan- always a pleasure to have you here. Hope you had a great time and I know we will see you in October. But let's hope we don't wait until October to get together again. Call and come by anytime you want.

Natural Tickler from Illinios- What can I say about you that I haven't written or have talked about. You are a GREAT friend. You are loved by both Sadira and I very much. We hope you had as great a time as we had having you here. Thank you for everything.
TklCouple- Another one of those what can be said that hasn't already been said. Thank you for your help with the raffle and the Chocolate fountain. Lady Sunset a GREAT salad again and both of your contributions were REALLY appreciated by both Sadira and I. Thanks for your friendship and love. We love you right back.
Sadira- my love, this is the third party. Just think number four comes up in October. It is nice to know that we work well together and that you had a GREAT time. Thank you for your patience in crunch time.
If I forgot anyone, I am sorry. After a while it all starts to blur. As I said to everyone at the party. This is YOUR PARTY. Not Sadira's or I. We provide a setting. The rest is up to you. We had a GREAT BUNCH OF PEOPLE here this past weekend. We made new friends and got to see old ones. Sadira and I were HONORED and HUMBLED by having you here. We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed your company. Thank you again for taking the time to be part of it and we hope to see you right back out there really soon.
Lots of love,
