Thanks for the picture. Back in the "good ole days" we used to have a NazNet sign.

[Hans Deventer]

Thanks for the picture. Back in the "good ole days" we used to have a NazNet sign.

Yes, we did. But I think you once ruled that even without the sign, it would still qualify as a NazNet meeting, didn't you, Dave? After all, this meeting would never have taken place without NazNet.

[Marian Schwaller Carney]

Yes, we did. But I think you once ruled that even without the sign, it would still qualify as a NazNet meeting, didn't you, Dave? After all, this meeting would never have taken place without NazNet.

I thought the qualifier was some sort of disagreement? [ cf, "to change a light bulb" string....] So, on what did you choose to disagree? Tacos or burritos? Hot or mild? Jalapenos or cayene? Coke, or Pepsi?

You know, Marian, I don't remember. We just had a good time together and the exact content of the specific orders the various people made didn't really got written on my internal hard disk beyond a short stay in the temp directory.

Hans had Cheese Enchiladasw/ rice and beans and a Diet Pepsi, Ben had carne asada tacos (no guacamole) w/ rice and beans and a water with lime and lemon, I had a shredded beef taco and a been burrito with a Pepsi and my wife, Rikki, had two shredded beef tacos w/rice and beans and an iced tea. Yeah, my brain works that way.

Now in the good "new" days, we have photoshop! ;o ) Hahaha... I'm sure someone could fake a Naznet sign in there if you really wanted one.

Dennis Scott has the NAZNET sign in his garage.

Now I'm hungry! And there aren't any mexican restaurants within 100 miles of here!

I would have ordered the carne asada tacos with the guacamole!

[Steven Martinez]

In all seriousness, I have to thank Ben and Hans for seeing me. They drove 2 hours each way to see me. The first 40 minutes of our time together I was hooked to my IV and it really was a humbling experience to be visited when you are unable to visit others. As JK Warrick said at our District Assembly two years ago, The Church of the Nazarene is not a denomination... we are a family.

Thanks Ben and Hans for being family to me and my family.

You must be in Maine. I know there's a Mexican restaurant in Hyannis, MA. Not much of one, I must admit, but the thought counts. We ate there a few years ago - not too bad but they seemed bewildered by the idea of refried beans.

[Hans Deventer]

Thanks Ben and Hans for being family to me and my family.

You're very welcome, Stew. And it was definitely part of my plans to visit you, if at all possible, even before I flew in. I was happy to learn upon arrival that Ben felt the same, so the only question we had to answer was 'when'.

[Jim Chabot]

That would be correct sir! Enjoying the cold and the snow immensely! Closest thing to a mexican restaurant around here is the taco bell/KFC in Presque Isle, come to think of it, I don't remember seeing taco shells on the shelves the other night when I went grocery shopping either.

Hyannis you say? Next time your out this way, maybe you could show me where it is, or I could show you where there's a good one in Milford. We could probably even get Dennis to go, licking his wounds and all.

There is now a Chipotles in Nashua - does that count?

Jim, unless you're up in northern Maine again, we have 2 Mexican restaurants we like just a few minutes from here in Kingston. Well within the 100 mile radius of Lakeville.

If you're up in northern Maine, then there's no restaurant of any sort within 100 miles period.

Let me know when you're coming and we'll go together.
