> Hi there everyone:

>

> I returned on Thursday night from a month vacation in Brownsville, Texas

> where I spent time with my good friend . It was very relaxing and I

> soaked up all the rays I could.

>

> While I was away I tried to read most of the posts, but the text on the

> computer was so small that I had an extremely hard time as I have some

> difficulties with my eye's. I was also unable to respond to send any

> messages. The computer belonged to the people who owned the house that my

> friend was renting.

>

> As some of you probably will remember, it was a dream of mine to either

> attend a Fling or meet someone from the group on a personal level.

>

> WELL MY DREAM WAS FINALLY FULFILLED!!

>

> The highlight of my whole trip was meeting and having a wonderful supper

> with Mollie (from South Padre Island) and her husband Harold. They are an

> absolutely wonderful couple! I was so excited to meet Mollie that I had

> butterflies in my stomach all that day. Due to my lack of speech I had to

> have my friend do a bit of interpretation but I felt very

> comfortable in their company and I think Mollie was able to understand

> most of what I tried to say.

>

> At the end of the evening I started to feel 'sad' that we had to say

> goodbye, but the good Lord willing I hope to return again next year (or

> convince them to make a trip to Canada) so we can make this an annual

> event.

>

> I feel I have a special bond, having personally met Bonnie and know that

> we will continue to remain good friends through our e-mails.

>

> If it wasn't for this wonderful support group, this meeting would never

> have happened.

>

> Just wanted to share this with all of you to let you know 'dreams can

> really happen'.

>

> Take care everyone.

>

> Sincerely

> Jo.
