Over 1.6 million without power, some for over a week!

The greater Seattle area had the worst storm in our history just two days before my auction. Over 1.6 million people lost power for days. Thousands - including my home - were without power for at least a week, and some longer than that. I lost several trees but none hit my home, just lots of clean up. It was hard on all.

The dealership/host was without power and closed the day before, but had it back the day of the auction. Needless to say the attendance was very minimal - only about 20 people. Now the 20 who did show up had a great time and were very generous with their purchases. I had figured if 100 people showed up and spent $100 each (not hard for such an event), it would be a huge success. It looks like the numbers could have worked relative to those who came - just had bad luck with the storm and timing.

So now I will be doing lots of E-bay and/or Craig's list... Can't give up that easy. I'll start just after the 1st. Taking a couple of days off so to speak.

Follow Your Dreams in 2007!

Happy Holidays!

Hello My Friends,

I hope you are all having a very happy holiday season. No matter how you celebrate, the best to you and yours!

Make a new year's resolution to find one thing you have always wanted to d and then just do it. It doesn't have to be large, it's all about starting a chain of positive events in your life. One leads to another, leads to another and on and on.

Follow Your Dreams! Lets see what 2007 will bring - lots of adventure I bet :-)

Keep those cards and letters coming. I miss hearing from you and I know you're out there.

Harley Davidson of Seattle in Lynnwood, WA - is hosting the Robin's Ride for Women Charity Auction!

Hi all - and to the people who still have power here in the greater Seattle area. Boy what a heck of a storm! I hope you are all well.

Tomorrow is the big day! H-D of Seattle in Lynnwood, WA is hosting my charity auction. I am in the middle of finishing 31 large gift baskets full of tons of wonderful goodies donated by the great companies in the coffee industry that attended Coffee Fest Seattle. They are overflowing and I still have more items that will just have to go out without baskets. The place I would get more baskets from is out of power. But hey, goodies are goodies no matter how they are packaged.

I hope to see many people - so many we run out of snacks! Don't worry - if we do I'll run to the store :-)

See you tomorrow!
