I met DA and Raven Tonight!
 
Tonight Mr. & Mrs. Pianoman and myself were honored to break bread with Raven and his wife and with Daniel Alicia here in Nashville.

DA is not obnoxious at all in person! LOL!!! He was a very laid back quite spoken man. He did not insult any of us at any time during our fellowship!

Raven and his wife are a wonderful couple I was honored to meet for the first time also. As most of you know Pentecost is like family and any time you get a group of us together there are an amazing number of people we all know in common with each other either in person or by reputation.

Time passed all to quickly and we talked long past the time our plates were taken away by the waiter and our bill kindly paid by Raven. We owe him lunch or dinner the next time he and Mrs. Raven make it to Jackson. Which now means I owe Elder's Epley & Groce, Pianoman, and now Raven a meal! LOL!!

We resolved all issues within Oneness Pentecost at dinner tonight so all is well. There will be no more strife or division. Oh, and I have an ocean front piece of proptery in Arizona to sell you.

Sherri became ill and Darcie was tired so we were not blessed with their presence as we had hoped but had a great time in spite of their absence.

CC1,

I told you guys. I was so totally shocked when I meet Dan Alicea for the first time. He is humble, soft-skoken, and so handsome. Made me almost wish I was a little Hispanic girl.

Sure wish I had met the rest you broke bread with.

Blessigns, Rhoni

My husband & I are thinking of visiting the Nashville area in a couple of weeks and I was wondering if you could give me any tips on what to see and where to stay?

Just got into Jackson about 40 minutes ago from Nashville ... WHAT A PLEASANT EVENING!!! We ate at Amerigo's ... the food was good ... the fellowship PRICELESS.

Got to meet some the best people you'll ever meet.

Some observations:

CC1 is a gracious conversationalist who has great stories to share ... He has an impeccable recollection of events. His love for God was evident in his speech.

Raven and Mrs. Raven are just unbelievable ... they are the model couple ... Raven is a paternal figure whose demeanor commands respect and confidence. Sister Raven complements him perfectly and is very pretty and sweet.

Pianoman is laid back and just as gracious. He also exudes sincere kindheartedness.

Mrs. Pianowoman is lively, outspoken and very much in love w/ her Pianodude.

Thank you so much Raven and Mrs. Raven for dinner ... we owe you big time. They have been a blessing to my life in so many ways ...

Here are some pics ... Pianoman and Mrs Pianoman left before we took them:

I have told several people in the past what Dan is like in real life. Inevitably they are still shocked to find what a meek soul he really is.

It is good to hear about Raven!!! I have not yet been privileged to meet him face to face. He is always gracious and genteel online, I feared he may have been an ogre in real life.

Very cool.

Raven has some really powerful posts. I tend to think he is as gracious and genteel in real life.

The reason Daniel comes across two different ways is because he is a deep thinker, and like so many of us...it is easier to voice your opinion on paper than it is face to face. Believe it or not, Daniel does not like conflict.

Blessings, Rhoni

P.S. I am sorry about the misspelled words in my previous post. I didn't see them in time to correct them. I don't have a problem spelling as much as I do typing. I refused to take typing in school because it was considered the 'girl' thing to do. I guess I always bucked the traditional way...even in my teens. I just didn't find my voice until in my late 30's.

I am bummed! We took the kids with my sister and her family to Nashville Sunday night through Wednesday. We left Wed morning b/c we had church last night. I just missed you all! Maybe next time.

How fun!! I'm glad y'all got to spend time together and to meet Raven too. They both seem like such great folks. Maybe I'll get to meet them someday.

Being Hispanic myself, this sounds a bit "you know" and I expect DA could vouch that all girls are attracted to a handsome guy like him, too. ;)
I am married to a blonde haired blue eyed man myself.
Most people of any persuasion are different in real life than online, nicer for sure.
