We started off having lunches together, and quickly decided that an hour wasn't enough time, so started going out for dinner. In 1996, we decided that wasn't enough time either, and started spending a night away. We're now up to 3 nights at a time! We have been through marriage, birth of kids, kids off to college (with one about to graduate ), divorce, coming out, illnesses and deaths of parents, cancer, and just about anything else that life has to offer. We have been there for each other through all of life's challenges. We have spent weekends in Half Moon Bay, San Diego, Lake Tahoe, Portland, Seattle, a cruise to the Pacific NW (Vancouver and Nainaimo BC), Las Vegas and others. It really doesn't matter where we go because most of the time, we are just hanging out talking, laughing and keeping each other humble. Good friends are truly one of life's kindest blessings. These "guys" are the best friends one could hope for.Thursday, October 23, 2008
The Girlfriends
October 10-13, I went to Lake Tahoe with "The Girlfriends". We are 5 friends who met while working together at HP in 1986. 
We started off having lunches together, and quickly decided that an hour wasn't enough time, so started going out for dinner. In 1996, we decided that wasn't enough time either, and started spending a night away. We're now up to 3 nights at a time!
