Beautiful pictures!

Wonderful time in Chicago and Raleigh! got to put my feet in the ocean yesterday and went to the State fair on Sunday, rode on a ferris wheel, something I've not done in many years!!! Clay and the fandom make me do things I've never thought I would ever do!! Flying back to Canada this pm,will be glad to see hubby and boys, back to reality and work on Wednesday evening! Will be chatting on the phone with a local clayfan who wasn't able to get to Chicago and gala, told her about some fans trying to convince me to go at least one concert in the next tour, on a train to either the NY or Conn concerts, she thinks we might be able, it would less expensive than flying at least!!! we'll see! So nice seeing everyone again and wonderful meeting new people. I won a picture of Clay in the silent auction, I'm told it's him singing Invisible with a green jersey in St Paul on the AI tour, that's before my time lol!

One more evening to work tonight! Then off 9 days! Looking forward to seeing some of you in Chicago and Gala, wow my 2nd gala! of course looking forward to seeing and hearing the guy again!

I'm pitiful with my 11 times, but will be up to 13 after Chicago and gala this month!

What beautiful pictures! can't wait to see him again October 14th!!! I've not been a fan as long as some of you, but I've seen once in Spam at a very bad seat, but made up for it in 6 other spams, by the wonderful kindness of certains generous fans who left me have very good seats, one gala, and 3 Timeless Tour concerts!!!! I will be seeing my first real Clay concert in Chicago and my 2nd gala. I'm very thankful for all these blessings!!!! :04:

Have a good time at the luncheon today! looking forward to seeing some of you in about 11 days!!! So looking forward to getting away again!!!

Here you go: after Gala breakfast Thanks! FearofH2O, I'm going to Chicago and gala, looking forward to meeting you at Gala and breakfast this year! But you know I won't be going to T&T tour in Feb-March! hopefully you will be able to go to the T&T concerts.

So glad to see October finally here!!! looking forward to Chicago concert and Gala!!! seeing all the clayfans and you know who!!! :04: Where is the after gala breakfast thread here? could someone direct me please?

Wow only 17 days till concert! so much to do! leaving here to go to Burlington Vt on the 12th, flying the 13th to Chicago! I have to plan meals to freeze for my family while I'm gone my hubby doesn't cook!!! I just love getting away lol!!!

Scarlett and I are planning on joining you! We are at Marriott for the Frid and Sat nights of gala! I'll need to ask our other roomie if she wants to be there too!

Sounds good to me too, will ask my roomies if they would like to go too! By the way I will be at the Marriott for 2 nights in the end the Friday and Sat nights and go to the other hotel for Sun and Mon nights near the Crabtree Mall.

In 21 days I`ll be in Burlington Vt for my flight on the Wed morning to Chicago!!! :04:

WOW in 3 weeks from today, we'll be busy getting ready to leave on Tuesday for Vermont where I get my flight to Chicago on the Wed! time's going to fly buy! :04:

Great I'll see you there!!!!

Wow in 3 weeks I'll be packing for my next claytrip!!! going to Chicago for first time and then second gala!!!! Happy Birthday for those celebrating!! Working overtime this evening for some extra $$ for trip! :04:

I try to avoid too many diet sodas even with no calories, the sodium makes me retain fluid. But I do like them as a treat. Wow got to keep the lbs down before my trip in October, I'm sure I'll gain a few then! In 4 weeks I'll be in Raleigh!!! His jeans were quite nice to look at, especially in Hampton Beach!!!!

I'm going to Gala, staying with Scarlett, we have breakfast included at hotel but don't know about plans for lunch, we are leaving on the 19th, will do some sightseeing.

In 4 weeks flying to Chicago then Gala, can't wait, love having something to look forward to!!! :04:

When I pledged in Chicago, I got Scarlett on the phone lol, too bad I didn`t pledge tonight might have got Clay on the phone and probably would have fainted lol! Well I finally was able to book my flight to Chicago and Raleigh tonight!!! another claytrip in the works!!! will totally enjoy and savour each moment as there is a strong possibility that I won`t be able to make it to T&T concert in Miami in February as I was thinking of doing. Can`t have everything I guess. My youngest is in last year of high school, so lot of expenses there. I`m so thankful that I will see him again in October, knowing that not everyone has this opportunity, there will be always clack!!! :04:

oh my time is flying hopefully will get good fares for flights to chicago and gala thursday can book till then! can't wait till next claytrip!!! = :04:

Well I'm back at work, day off today! The work load quite heavy at the hospital, always seems worse at the end of summer! I really enjoyed my 3 weeks off! I'm looking forward to my next trip in 6 weeks to Chicago and Raleigh for the gala! It's fun to have something like that to look forward to! It's always fun to see Clay of course but I also love seeing my clayfans friends and making new ones! Hope to see some of you again in October! Love looking at all the clack, thanks to the clackgatherers for all your hard work! :04:

couchie & family! so sorry to hear about your loss!

It's Friday, last day of vacation, back to work Saturday after having 3 weeks off. It's been a great vacation, a claytrip and a trip to Quebec city! Looking forward to October for Chicago and gala trips. Was great seeing Clay finally in concert and seeing fans again.

Well everyone busy with tickets for the T&T tour, good for you! Well I'm still planning my Chicago and gala trip in October. I'd be highly surprised if I make it to T&T tour, I think my family would disown me if I went to Florida without them as we never have been there. I'll plan my vacation for that week anyhow, if I can't go I'll just enjoy the clack I guess. Can't have everything. I'm thankful for the opportunity of having gone to 3 concerts with TT and soon the trip in Chicago. If I'd known about the T&T, I would not have planned to travel this fall. I'm glad for those of you that can do these trips. Right now in Quebec City with hubby, having a nice time, but it's not the same as a roadtrip to see Clay! Am I selfish or what? I have to wait to get home in order to save some of the Biloxi clack the internet here is very slow!

Got home yesterday from my first Clay roadtrip it was an exciting, wonderful, amazing time!!!! can't wait for next trip! Enjoyed the 3 shows enormously and seeing other clayfans. Such a fun time, now back to reality today but I'm still on vacation, going to Quebec city for 4 days with hubby, a getaway just the two of us!! he will benefit from my clay trip lol!!!
