seattlesteve Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 West Coast! Which area of the West coast do we have the most fans? I would guess LA, but Billy K and myself could make a good case for the Seattle area. Seattle Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seattlesteve Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 I'd be glad to host and throw in a pool party and boat sightseeing tour.Seattle Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foolin' Myself Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Is Santa Fe New Mexico West enough! We have the greatest food in the world. Have you ever had real green or red chili? We have the #1 hot air balloon show in the world. The weather is not to hot or to cold and if you don't like the weather, stick around for half-an-hour and it will change.We have great mountains for skiing (this is only good when it snows though). We have Fiesta where they burn Zozobra. Ever think of having a winter weekend get together? You could call it Eric Carmen's "WINTER DREAMS" (how original. I guess "Weekend at Bernie's" wasn't so original either). You could ski during the day and at night snuggle up with the one you love (Eric's taken)and a hot beverage by the fire and listen to EC music and talk.

LostControl Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 If we plan for a party here in Ottawa, we''re not too far away for Gord, Andy, Marvin (if he happened to be in Montreal at the time) and anyone who is in Upper NY state or Vermont. Actually, Ohio isn't really all that far from here - maybe we could make a pilgramage to all the places Eric or the Raspberries ever were...

hungryeyes Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Hi everyone! Just a quick post here and I will wrap it all up in this one post. I am so excited for everyone attending Weekend at Bernies. I hope you all have a great time. So much going on here , it is crazy. First I still don't have my computer. I just sent it out again for repair for the 5th time. Everytime it is returned to me there is something else wrong with it. I did lose everything, my pictures,files, music,etc. I am so frustrated. There is some clown out there that should be fixing my computer not screwing it up.Anthony and my mother had surgery and are both fully recovered. Yesterday my father had surgery and....so far.....so good. Thank God!!!I will be spending the weekend at my parents helping them out, I knew sometime ago that I would not be able to make the get together on Sunday. I am planning a very special trip sometime later this year. Can't wait for that!Right now I really need to sit back and relax while reading a good book. Bernie, can't wait to receive that book. Thank you.That's all for now...Have a great time on Sunday!Enjoy all the surprises too! Gina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Gina, Thanks for the update and good wishes for everyone. You and your family are in my prayers. Take extra good care of yourself. When you're taking care of other people, you need to stay in extra good health yourself. God bless you.We'll all eat an extra piece of Julia's cake for you! --Love, Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betsey Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Wishing you all a fantastic time at Bernie's tomorrow. Sure wish I could be there, but I have 4 kids in 3 states, with arrivals home starting this evening. Meanwhile I'm going out on the porch with my new book!

Kirk Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 My Saturday mail came, still no book AND I have to work the weekend, so no weekend at Bernies or cel phone visit. Zip, nada, nothing for poor Kirk 'til at least Monday. Darlene, please fire up that violin for me Kirk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannoman Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 Well, I'm almost there. I am in Philly at the moment and on Friday afternoon I found a couple slides of the 2nd Raspberries just before the breakup-30 years ago - time flies, eh?. I managed to get a couple prints made at the last minute and am bringing them for Bernie. At least one is acceptable - fortunately it's of Eric.See ya tomorrow guys.Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 Have a great time tomorrow everyone. Kirk, I didn't get my book in the mail either and I was hoping to read it while I was in Chicago on Monday and Tuesday. I hope it's here when I get back so I can take it on vacation!

JuliaD Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 The cake is made (it's a toasted almond torte, but three times the size of the ones I make for our bakery), and I think you guys will get a kick out of it when you see it. I'm also bringing some cookies I made today.I'm sure people will be taking pics, I'll be taking some myself, but I'm telling you right now, anyone posting pics of me in a bathing suit will have an Irish curse put on them!

darlene Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 The lasagna is almost made, and I'm getting ready for "Weekend at Bernie's!" It's sunny here--even the weather cooperated! I decided not to bring lemonade--you all get enough of that from me all year long! I hope everyone gets their books today. That would give those who aren't going to the party an advantage over those who are, or at least make the playing field level. We'll take lots of pictures, and think about everyone on the board, so you'll all be there "in spirit." It sounds like "Weekend at Bernie's" may occur in different parts of the country and become a traditional for all! That would be great! Have a great day. There'll be enough pictures, it'll almost be like having a webcam. --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
