Creeker Gathering - Pre-gloat NOW A GLOAT!

[Joe Mioux]

Ken, sounds like you are going to have a wonderful - eventful - and memorable time.

By all means have a toast in honor of Pesh. Just the thought of his dry sense of humor makes me smile.

but while you are at it, I hope the toast is with a Bud Light.

I think that would make Mr Salisbury smile.

I'll insure one of the toasts is a Bud Light in Ken's memory. And if Karl chose the right place....an Old Style for me and Pesh!

[Jim Becker]

Is John Miliunas still around? I haven't seen a post from him in quite some time.

Yes, he's just taken a break for awhile to enjoy life and all it has to offer.

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I am happy to report John Miliunas is 85 lb.s lighter and more flat that round but ...still around.

Karl, John and I spent about 3 1/2 hours together today at BOWL-A-VARD in Madison, WI. They had beer, brat and bowling. If I'd have awakened from a coma there....I could have told you I was in Wisconsin!

It was a great time. We hoisted a few brews...a BL for Ken Salisbury....a Old Style for Pesh. We talked fondly about what had been going on in our lives and how much we missed Ken and Dale. Dale's humor and intelligence was a subject too. I explained to Karl and John the look on my MIL face when I told her I was going to meet some friends I'd met 4 years or so ago and had never seen their faces. You should have seen the look on her face!

Karl gifted me with some of his famous beef noodle soup that I hope to consume later this week.

It was great time and it just proved to me. I have yet to have experienced a bad Creeker gathering!

Thanks John and Karl! Until we get together again!

Im relying on Karl or John for photographic proof that it did happen......There were photos taken and it did happen!

If this is your way of getting us to GIVE you a camera to go with the mini.......forget it!

Congrats on the alleged visit. Those are two good guys!!!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

ROTFL!...................Karl took photos and so did John. I don't normally take a camera when I travel on business. The cameras all belong to the camera queen I'm married to.....

She trusts me with tools not cameras!

[Jim O'Dell]

Ken, you must have been a little rough on John and Karl! I mean, you've posted several times, yet they haven't been able to get to the computer yet!
Come on guys, it's not nice to make the guest suffer...just because the rest of us want proof! Jim.

[Nancy Laird]

Gotta remember, Ken's IN Madison, Karl and John had to drive to get there---bet there are pics up by midnight (my time).

I'm here. Just couldn't get on the 'puter yesterday when I got home. LOML was encamped in front of the screen playing her Zuma game.

Anywho, we met at a sports bar [Arena, which is part of the aforementioned bowing establishment] on Madison's east side close to the Interstate. Easy off, easy on for Ken. Me too. Less than a mile off the I from both my house and the pub. Weather was rainy, so it was a good day to spend with friends.

Spring wandered in after Ken and I had only been there a few minutes and it was actually about 5 minutes before any of us remembered to get a beer.

A proper toast to "Pesh" and a little while later a toast to Ken S. was followed by stories and such that had me mesmerized. Or maybe it was the Amber Bock I was imbibing.

I must try and figure out how to get to Ideho-ho by Christmas so I might stow away with Ken and his bride for their trip. NZ is on my short list of places to visit. I'm just not sure one can get to Lewiston from here.

We finally had a bite to eat, while we watched the "Pack" get beat again and "Da Bears" win again and told more stories. Then it was time to part ways. We waited as long as we could Tyler.

Thanks Ken, for taking the time to rent a car and drive to meet up with Spring and I. And thanks to Spring for buying lunch. I owe you one bud.

Have a great week everyone, I know I will.
