Manzanita

Well we went to Manzanita over Memorial Day and had a very nice time. I’ve
put up href="http://purl.org/net/pjn/slideshows/Manzanita%202003/">pictures
from the trip as well as made a href="http://purl.org/net/pjn/slideshows/Manzanita%202003/Manzanita150kbps.wmv">~6MB
movie of kite flying and xbox playing with href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/moviemaker/downloads/moviemaker2.asp">Windows
Movie Maker 2 which is astonishingly easy to use. Ang and Greg organize
this each year and book href="http://www.ribboninvestmentfirm.com/captainshideaway.html">The
Captain’s Hideaway. After the costs are split up it’s a great deal.

We learned a fun new game from Alicia, maybe it’s called “the song game”?
The best games tend to survive on content rather than fancy names. Anyway,
teams split up, some word or motif is identified (”cars” or “summer”) and
then the teams have to come up with a song involving that topic and sing it.
It goes until somebody gives up or I suppose can’t handle the singing from
somebody who’s overly enthusiastic about the game. We kept trying to come
up with the transition from the opening stanza “You don’t have to front on
me dear” to the part where Easy-E starts talking about his “automobile” (in
the N.W.A. classic of the same name) but otherwise our Ang, Jenny, Tanya,
Tom and I played a pretty good game. Nobody violated the explicit rule
about leaving fecal matter on the floor as far as I know, so hopefully we’ll
get to go back next year - yay!
