My Annual Skiing Holiday




I wrote this on Saturday but didn't have a chance to post it till today.

Last year I had the best time in Denver for RMOUG and then the trip up to the mountains. Today I am on board the last leg of my journey back to Denver I am so excited for so many reasons:

Debra’s daughter is coming, she is so embarrassed by me that she flew via Toronto and we flew via Chicago, she won't admit it is the reason but she didn’t want to be on the same flight, but I promise by the end of the vacation she will love me.

We are staying two nights at Miss Molly’s house but she is away, that is sad I love Miss Molly.

Tomorrow is Debra’s birthday and also Valentines Day, which is a big co-incidence as it was last year too. I am hoping for a bit of romance, I am going to me a lady from my own country, Aggie is a Vietnamese Pot Bellied Pig and I have been dreaming of her for sometime now. Last year she was away on her own holiday at the local pig ranch.

Then we are off to dinner with one of those wonderful Oracle Executives in my Gallery. He is so proud of being photographed with me, he has invited lots of friends around to meet me.

Monday we move downtown to the conference hotel, and my other friends start to arrive. As well as Mogens, James Morle is coming, he is the man who christened me, I have only seen him once since then so I am excited. Dan Morgan will be there, as will Cary Millsap and on Tuesday Dan Norris arrives.

Tuesday night Dan Norris has arranged a shark dive, apparently I am not clean enough to do in but at least I get to watch the others. Wednesday there is an ACE breakfast and panel session hosted by my good friend Duncan Mills and then Vikki is taking us to dinner that evening.

Thursday the conference comes to an end and we will go off to the Mountains but not before more friends arrive, the ODTUG board are coming into town and I will catch up with Mike Riley and his group.

What have they in store for me in the mountains, as well as those who did such awful things to me last year, there will be others like Alex Gorbahov who is about to become one of my handlers for the Miracle Open World in May.

So lots of anticipation, I hope it lives up to it I am so excited. Wish you were here with me.
