>I knew it was the Pointe! I loved that place. Years earlier I was living there and it was favorite place to go for ostrich eggs for brunch when everything (that can bloom) is in bloom there :o)

Yuk!!! Ostrich Eggs!!!! grin....

It is a very pretty place!!! And the hills (mountains?) with the houses at the top with the swimmimg pools on the sides of the hill!!! That was unique!!

I have a lot of GOOD memories of that place!! I met a LOT of my heroes there!!

Tracy, how could you have been there?? You would've been only about 12 at the time??? YES????? grin.....

>>>>>It couldn't have been 92 in Phoenix because I was working on Fort Bragg when I went to it and I worked on Fort Bragg from early 1994 - June 2001. I thought it was 95 but now I think it was 96 and was at the Princess, not the Point. I have the t-shirt at home so I'll check tonight. The fox was wearing a bandanna...

>>>>>>>Oh. It was definitely at the Point and it was beautiful. That devcon was PACKED and they served food under large white tents. George Goley was a speaker. See, I said I was getting old! This example of my poor memory proves it! :o) I actually lived in Pardise Valley and Scottsdale (near Camelback mtn) years and years ago (back in 80-81).
