Post by Linda_Howell on Dec 31^st, 2010 at 12:58am

I've known Shawn Nunley for many years but never met him in person. Some of you old-timers may remember him and his milliion dollar babies from a while back. Because I am in Calif. now...I met him for coffee this morning. His house was inundated by floods but he took the time out to meet with me anyway despite his problems.

Jerry, I gave him a hug from you. Shawn is one of the nicest guys I've had the pleasure of meeting. Clusterheads are the greatest!!!!!!

It is so awesome to meet another Clusterhead in person, there is a certain instant bond.. I have had the privilege of meeting 3 CH's and it is like we knew each other all our lives.
Nice pic you two! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Hi Everybody!

This is Shawn (fubar). Just wanted to say hello and tell everybody how wonderful it was to meet Linda, finally! It was a real treat to see her and Jim, especially now since all we seem to be dealing with right now is water...

Hope everybody is PF for the holidays and beyond. Bring on 2011!

-Shawn

Finally, I can put a face to a name! Thanks Linda.

There is absolutely nothing like meeting another clusterhead. It is instant family. If you haven't had this wonderful experience, I highly recommend looking for the nearest meet & greet, or come to the annual OUCH convention.

You will never forget it.

St Louis may not be near, but it is easy to get to and soon! Check it out on the Meeting and Gatherings page

And I am looking forward to finally meeting Johnny. After putting 6000 miles under my belt in the last month, I have some questions to ask him as to how he does it. :P

Home at last. But with many memories of Shawn, my kids, my ocean, and my Redwoods. sigh......

Linda,

The major difference is your seat. 6000 miles on a good air ride seat is easier than 1000 in most cars. I'd rather drive to California and back than to ride in my wife's minivan for 100 miles, but I can't get her to sell it. I tried a five dollar bill on the key ring with the key in the car and the windows rolled down, but no one would touch it.

After Linda was gone, we took a short trip to Yosemite, and here's a couple of pictures of the million-dollar babies...

Ethan's face when looking up at Yosemite Valley for the first time. I think he was in complete shock, as was I when I saw it the first time as a child.

Aw, Shawn I am so glad you got away like that. Those babies are so precious.

Thank you for getting on-line here again and letting us see those babies. I missed you immediately after we left. Wished so bad we could have spent more time together. :'(

Next time, you will make time for my famous ribs, Linda. And somehow we'll get Bob P to join us. I just hope I have a house to invite you to! I'm sorry I've been away from CH.com for so long. 20 years of this CH crap can make a guy like me want to pretend it doesn't exist, and I have to admit, staying out of the political discussions has been good for my stress level. I do love this bunch of freaks, even if I have been pretty quiet. We'll meet up again.
