Hi everyone...I am Bugz' "darlin daughter", Apple Pan Dowdy and below are the pics.... enjoy!

Mrs JC Parks and Bahama Mama

Mr and Mrs Dalereed

Cocktail party in Skywalkers Lounge

Bugz finds a new friend!

Bahama Mama found a really great place for us on the beach!

JUST WOW, I only wish that I could have been there with you all...maybe next time. I could not get away for this trip and missed seeing you all. I haven't yet had the pleasure of meeting the GrayBreards or Rice Bug yet, and the rest of you... well big FReeper hugs to you all!

[Apple Pan Dowdy]

Oh.. and I forgot to mention in last post.... I can tell that the MyCroftHolmes's are still on that honeymoon!!! And they still have my vote as "best FReeper couple". I am still jealous of and in awe of the Dalereeds as they just don't seem to put on more weight every year like the rest of us old-folks have a habit of doing. Bahama Mama still has the greatest tan in the world, and looking mighty fine.

Note to "self" and to Hoosiermama and Bah Bah....... we will just have to be there on the next one!

[Graybeard58]

Great pictures, thanks for posting them. Everyone looks great except for that character sitting by Mrs. Graybeard.

We are in Sikeston, Mo. right now and I will be here for another day or so before going home and then I will be posting pics too.

I've already received my warning from Bahama Mama not to post any risque pictures that I may have snapped or else - (She knows where I live now) She said that, "I can run but I can't hide"

I have the cable for Joy's camera, somewhere in the luggage but I left my dock and cable at home, I'm just too tired to look for her's.

Bumpo, bumpas, bumpemos (we went, we cruised, we're happy to be on FR again!)

Many thanks, Ricebug, for the photos. And a close-up of the decoration on the bag, also! And it sparkles and glitters, too! WOW!

I think I will make this my freeper coat of arms.....four hibisci rampant on a tropical beach, LOL.

Thanks also to those who discovered the "Bahama Mama" tote bag in a native crafts shop on the beach and presented it to me.

It'll be difficult to ease out of my Bahama Mama gig back into my alter ego screen name, Leni.

Right now I think I'm suffering from SPI (split personality disorder), LOL

Welcome home! Hope you're rested up by now. Great pictures, too! Can't wait to see more. We missed you, but are so glad you had such a great cruise! Old Glory and I had a blast when we went with you all the last time, thats for sure!

[Bizzy Bugz]

Hello all, Leni did so much work for this cruise. She is responsible for doing all of the work for us. She righted all that went wrong. Worked hard on the cruise as well as before we sailed. Always with a big smile. She deserves a big hand for all of this. I want to thank her on this web site and hope that she pulls another one together next year. Thank you Leni.

I'm having problems with Mrs. Graybeard's camera down loading, I may have to get somebody who know's their a$$ from a hole in the ground, to do it. It takes better pictures than mine and I apologize for "not the best quality.

Mrs. Graybeard and I had a great time but the best part was meeting and being with such good company from F.R.

[dixie sass]

You and Mrs. Dalereed are still as beautiful and handsome as ever. What's your secret?

[dalereed]

Hard work, we haven't got time to think about getting old!

[dixie sass]

Tell Mrs Dale I said hello.

[dalereed]

She'll read it as soon as she getw to her computer, she doesn't post but reads the threads as much as I do.

She has this thread up in one window now.

Missed you on the cruise, maybe next time!

Thank you so much, Bizzy, for the kind words.

Believe me, it was all my pleasure. I love putting the cruises together and more than that, I LOVE being with freepers.

Y'all are the salt on my french fries
You're the soles on my shoes
You're the Godiva in my chocolate martini
I'd be lost without youse

Bahama Mama

[Graybeard58]

I LOVE being with freepers.

For me it was the high point of the trip. Members of F.R. are the nicest people, I will mention too, that Joy enjoyed meeting and being among the group.

We both look forward to another trip if there is another one.

I will take Joy's camera clip to Wal-Mart to edit and develope the pics and hope they are better quality than mine. It will be a few days.

[dixie sass]

You look great Leni. Cruises sho' nuff agree with you! Glad you are home. Am going to try to get to Florida later this year to visit family. Hope to see some of the Florida Freepers when I get down there.

Great pictures!
