The plan was innocent enough - to meet some BT friends for dinner...

Cynde looked beautiful.

Ben, son of Max the Party Rat, tagged along. From the beginning, it was clear that Ben was looking to have a good time.

The margarita was obviously too much for Ben. He threatened Micheal. Then he threw himself at Cynde, kissing her passionately.

Fortunately, rat passion doesn't last long, so Cynde was soon able to escape Ben's embrace, and dinner resumed.

Oh my God!!! You guys are too much, leave my poor rat alone !!!

Looks like you had too much fun and I am so sorry I had to miss it.

Maybe next time I make it to California, we can plan to all be there together....

And Cynde IS beautiful. Inside and out.

Hugs to you both (Cheryl and Airey).

Hey Kelly! We missed you! We'll definitely have to get the group together again. But I think the rat needs to lay off the margaritas! ;>
c.

Yep, I may have to schedule a little trip to rehab.

I think a reunion in Bonaire would be nice.

Very funny you all!!! I can offer some counseling for Ben and will drop him off at a couple of AA meetings.....just ship him up, Cynde! You gals are on your own!

Cheryl. Thanks for posting the pictures. We like to keep tabs on that rat. What a party animal. Annie B.

Cheryl, rotflmao! Notice in the last picture that Ben/Max is drinking Aiery's glass of wine! He is sooooo bad! Barbara, I may just have to ship him off to AA...he clearly has a problem like his father, the giant hissing rat! LOL!

We had such a great time chatting with you guys. We definitely have to have another get together! It was funny, one of the waitresses came up after we were done with dinner and wanted to know what the deal with the rat was....how do we explain it??? LOL!

Cynde. When you find the answer will you tell me. When I tell my friends about BT they politely nod, but I know they haven't got a clue as to what I am talking about. LOL. Annie B.

Not only did the waitress ask about the rat, she had to pet it!

Nice rat...pretty rat...(insert evil laugh here)

Why are all the empty drink glasses in front of ME in that last picture too???? OH, yes, Aiery pushed them all over there...now I remember!

I just remembered the "altercation" that we witnessed...if those rebel rousers had gotten out of hand, we could have thrown a drunken Ben/Max at them! Here comes a flying plastic drunken rat!

LOL! If we had screamed, "RAAAAAAAT!!!" and then thrown it, it would have really been funny! Poor thing might have wound up in the harbor though!

Cheryl, I am really LOL'ing...just the mental picture of the above scene would have been hysterical...maybe we can hire him out for "crowd control!"

Hey, we gotta pay for the next Bonaire trip somehow, right? "Rat for hire". lol.

Cynde, I forgot to ask, are you headed back to BON in November with Kelly again? (eyes turning green with envy...)

Cheryl, no reason to turn green We aren't going

indeed.

But we are going to Saint Maarten in March with my Mom

Nice pics, looks like a lot of fun!
Well... a get together in Bonaire one time, sounds great.
I bring a plastic flying turkey along, instead of a rat... (lol)

OH, I had forgotten to post this one of Cheryl sucking up to Ben as well...he is a little charmer
