I’m in! Woo hoo! Can’t wait to see everyone in beautiful Sausalito...

 

[CortezPearls]

I can hardly wait!!!

 

[CathyKeshi]

Walter and I are SO looking forward to joining you, Sarah, and so many Pearl Friends in Sausalito! Email sent! And ... DOUGLAS!!!!

 

[CortezPearls]

Aaaaw Shucks! And considering I'm not even a "Father of Pearl" anymore
But I still have a "nacre coated heart" and a big desire to be with my Pearl Family

BTW: anyone have a special request for my talk/presentation? I am co-writing an article with my friends Pedro Saucedo, César Lodeiros and Héctor Acosta about Pearl Culture in Latin America. Thought I could share this with you all...would this subject be of interest?

Oh Douglas you will always be "Father Pearl" to those that know you I have you to thank for my peanut. Can't wait to see you in October

Would I be a bad person if instead of flying to Florida for a family reunion of my in-laws, I fly to California for my first ever pearl get together? My husband just stared at me when I suggested it. Sigh.

Your presentations are always interesting no matter the topic. You were born to entertain!

 

[CortezPearls]

Excellent then! An update on Pearl Production in Latin America
Thank you jeg ​​​​​​​

Hi TriciaS, some husbands think we're some kind of cult!

 

[CathyKeshi]

I got Walter to join the cult ... but it took a lot of years LOL! Feed them and they come around

 

[CortezPearls]

Pearl Cult!
This is the funniest thing I've heard in a while! I Love it!

 

[KarinK]

What I don't understand is why it's strange to prefer to go to pearl meet rather than stay with in-laws???

 

[eolian pearls]

Exactly my thoughts KarinK

Oh boy! Oh girl! Today is my laugh & smile day!

 

[Charlotta]

I agree. Pearls are never rude and they do not talk to much...not all people do of course but pearls never misbehaves...

 

[CortezPearls]

Good morning! I'm having a ball now...or rather a "bowl of pearls!"...any indicator that this event in Ole Frisco will be as good as it sounds? Sure sounds good to me!

 

[2thdktr]

I'm in...and just happy to meet and mingle with other people whose eyes don't glaze up when I start talking about pearls. Looking forward to it!
