BigFun 2011 Week One.. It’s been a blur
Thursday Oct 27th
Finally found a little time to organize BigFun photos from the 1st week as people arrived for the BigFun weekend. It was a fun week full of activities. Mike had Lianne and her Canadian friends with him and John Kleber and his friend Paul joined us and the usual suspects here in the hood. We were very pleased to have Heather & Brian with us as they prepared to head to Palo Alto Ca. for Brian’s surgery which in progress as I write this. To help them with expenses on what will be a long recovery from throat surgery, we all pitched in to create a Cholla Love fund which climbed to $4,400 thanks to all your generosity. Here’s their email response to our support.
Wow, I mean wow! Truly, we are at a loss for words. We received the card from Jim yesterday evening and we were speechless and to be honest a little embarrassed. Every penny will go towards the healing of Brian. Thank you, thanks to all of our incredible friends…we brought the picture with us so we can look at everyone’s smiling faces.
With all of our gratitude, love, and appreciation.
Brian and Heather
Here’s a slide show of hi-lites through Friday night at the Wrecked.

Until then, Positive Energy to Brian

WOW …. We love it in Cholla Bay !!! It was incredible .. what a wonderful community you have built together …. we so enjoyed meeting everyone …. you guys know how to have Big Fun! We tried to soak up as much sun & ambiance to last us through the winter & when we are freezing up here in Canada we will think of the sailing, dancing & tequila! Muchas Gracias for your hospitality & making me laugh so much I wished I had some depends on. “Eh” Our positive thoughts go out to Brian for a speedy recovery.
Be Well

Although it was my fifth I feel like a newbie when we’re talking the 25th. Wow! I’m home and smiling and savouring every single minute I had with ALL of you this year. Each year turns out to be such an incredible event thanks to all your hard work. Thank you soooo much for this October event that brings us all together for laughter, love, dancing, great food and always of course a sail. XOXO
