The "Beach Party" name sounds great, no matter the venue.
We enjoyed the place, except for the cost of drinks. Fortunately we don't drink. :O

I was impressed by the number of people we were able to attract, this time around.
I expect next year's get-together to be bigger and better, in the way of food items and more affordable (or free) drinks, to the more "thirsty" forum members. :-)
PS - Are you always as happy as you appeared to be, or were you just happy to be in Las Vegas with the EE gang? :-)

Okay since I've been to both beach parties plus CF's luv in B-) . We fixed one problem this year - ie no music - even though a little hula music would have given Hula Boy something to dance to. (devil) If we return next year - I'd like to request they turn the lights up.
As I have mentioned to David, I wondered if we could get any type of 'deal' with the Hilton for a night (I saw several rooms empty every night.) That would perhaps allow more to 'drop in' - specially when so many other 'vendor parties' are going on at the same time. Just a thought.

David,
My vote would be the 2nd annual beach party....as well.....lets just get some music live or otherwise, and I agree with Zona, have them turn up the lights.

David,
I'm certainly not always happy, but God has given me JOY. I've been blessed way beyond anything I ever deserved.
I have a wonderful wife, and a fantastic daughter. We have our faith, and that keeps us strong.
We're having a major struggle with Janna's job right now, so the "happiness" is tough to find...but there's still JOY.
Incidently, I thought up with a song while we were in Vegas, and I wanted to talk to you about it...but didn't have time. I'll tell you about it in a PM.

I didn't realize Janna worked outside of your business. I hope that situation looks up for her.
I've said many times on the forum, that after being on my own, since 1990, I've become virtually unemployable.
Self-employment certainly isn't for everyone, but it sure beats working for a living. :-)

Did it have "Viva" in it? ;-)

Ummm...no.
I shared it with David L, and he's welcome to share it if he'd like to.

I was amused with your premise for a song, based on something you saw in Las Vegas.
It sounds like something Arlo Guthrie could handle. :-)

The song would be good in an "Alice's Restaurant" narrative style, with some guitar riffing in the background.
I'll sign off now. The amplification is bothering Uncle Steve. >.<

The funny story about that song, is the writer came up with the song and title, when he was absolutely falling-down drunk. No surprise there, given the era.
He was so excited about it that he called a band member and in a drunken slur, blurted out the title.
The title his band member heard through the phone won out. :-)
The intended title?
"In The Garden of Eden"
