The annual taco party went off without a hitch (well - except for the slight delay in serving up the grub). People showed up, had a good time, and left satisfied. I blew through the last three exposures on the roll of film so I should be dropping off all the film tomorrow. I've got some great pics from Mambo this year, thanks to Ed taking the initiative and grabbing the camera. I've got great blackmail pics, so I'll be in a house in no time (HA!).
But really the best part of Mambo was the awesome surprise I received from an old co-worker and her daughter. Honestly, it was the best surprise I've ever had... it was none other than Bea! That sneaky woman RSVP'd her regrets and then hopped on a plane to come hang out and party! It was a damn great day and Bea helped it along. It was great to see her and the rumblings of me taking a trip back out to AZ for my birthday have begun... we shall see...
But it was a great day - the food was awesome, the beer flowed freely for those who drank, and the weather... well the weather ate shit later in the night, but it was still a beautiful day overall.
Mambo VIII goes down as the best Mambo ever. Thanks to everyone who came out and special thanks to Cathy, Beth and Aaron who showed up on my doorstep with Bea.
See ya next year!

You said it, brutha! This was by far the greatest Mambo in history! Much of that can be attributed to the special surprise appearance by Bea! I damn near fell over when I saw her!
Overall, it was a great time and am eagerly awaiting for Mambo IX.
If HeatWave V is only half as fun as Mambo this year, it would kick some major ass.
Well done, my friend... well done.
