hi, my name is Elaine

[trizone63]

I have been so warmly welcome by so many new friends that I truly know that the spirit of this beloved series is alive and well in all of us. I look forward to further exploring this site and joining the fun.

Howdy! Welcome to Boomers.

Thank you friend! Great that I found you all....

and I used to listen to the baseball game with my grandpa, we would sit in the swing under the big walnut tree.

There is such a feeling of comfort and well being. I felt so safe just thinking about the way men protected the family and moms kept us warm, cared for...loved. Bonanza was like that to me - like coming home.

Glad you are here Elaine. By the way, that's my middle name.

[trizone63]

To bonanza1: glad you are here also...thank you for the warm welcome and hope to hear from you again.

Elaine, nice to meet you (and sorry to be late).

I was born 1981 so I never saw the original airing of Bonanza with my parents, but they used to watch it as kids, and it was a fixed appointment every sunday evening for them. I love it when they tell me about it, how they enjoyed watching it, and now I used to watch a rerun on german TV with my mum (it has been cancelled now ), so I can understand your feelings and memories. It feels like home to me too and I love the boys and the ranch and the stories so much...

I hope we´ll meet often here on Boomers and that you have a great time here. We are glad to have you with us, so

Elaine. You'll find lots of things to see and do on this website.

Nice to meet you too Chenoa. The feeling of coming home is expressed throughout this site by so many that I think that's what makes this website so special to those who find it. I absolutely look forward to keeping in touch and share stories. Thank you for the sweet welcome.
