Paula, those are awesome sunset pictures. I'm glad you got to see a little bit of California's beauty and not just a mall.

I can't believe you stayed up until 6:30 am again. If I did that I would have totally been falling alseep while driving.

Amazing pics Paula - and it looks and sounds like y'all had a blast!! Thanks for sharing it with us - so we can live through the Ledgie fabulousness vicariously.

Oh --but don't let Paula fool you - all there is to see in Buffalo are dead people's houses and old women in Crocs.

I'm totally kidding - if anyone can make Buffalo appealing and fun - it's Paula

I almost died laughing when I walked out of my room into you guys taking this one. I think I actually collapsed to the floor.

This one rocks. I think I was singing the "opening another beer, I'm so happy" song. So, yeah, Angel. "talkin' bout the beeverage...of my dreams..."

Now that I think about it, I can't believe every one of us touched that stupid mop head after we'd been kicking down the street. Or at all.

Clean freaks my a**.

Oh, and I just took all the beer bottles out from that. It took me an hour.

The pics were awesome, a nice suprise after studying all.day.long.

Funny stuff Paula!! Sounds like everyone had a blast--thanks for sharing the adventure

Your pics are cool also--I wish I would have taken some full stage shots like that!! As for the whole mop thing---ummm yeah--you would have never seen me touching that thing--who knows what it was used for

Great pics, P. Makes me wish I had hauled my conshohocken up there.
And thanks for the shout out !

Now I wanna go to Buffalo.

I'm so bummed I wasn't able to come out!

I'm glad y'all had such a great time. Paula, you look great!

It's self-absorbed California. Why do the work of disposing something properly, when you can just toss it on the sidewalk and let someone else deal with it.

Those Pacific Coast Highway shots are beautiful, and glad you saw some of the best the state has to offer.

Wonderful storytelling, pics, videos, thanks for taking the time to write such an entertaining recap! And I'm sorry also that we didn't get more time to hang out. Hopefully there will be a next time...and soon.

Yeah, well, we thought about that afterwards when we sobered up.

I'm sure we were all exposed to conshohoken.

I thought it was mainly here, and it was because here someone will pick up what you dropped really soon, cause they need/want it. People are always like "free stuff" with their box of free stuff on the sidewalk. I thought it was to be nice to the billions of homeless wandering our streets.

Well, I guess someone knew that an old mop would be of use to some drunk Ledgies.

How did Jazmen miss a kick of a mop?

It's everywhere. People leave things out here all the time. Some of it is decent too. I have seen some nice sofas and dining tables. I know people who trawl for this stuff. Everyone wants more stuff, it seems.

I am getting the garage at my rental redone before I sell it. The workers hauled out a filthy moldy cheap steamer trunk, two dented and muddy filing cabinets, a mildew covered rug, old dishes, some stray engine parts, and a tote bin full of rotten clothing and pictures (damned tenants and their leave behinds...). I was planning a bulk trash pickup, cause all that stuff was in the driveway waiting. Two days later, everything but the bin full of rotten clothing was gone. The stuff was landfill material. Now it is in someone's house.

BTW, there was an old mop too. GONE.
