Hmmmmmmmm
Who am I missing? (I took the list from thread2 page1. I'm on Bessy and it would take me 5 hours to go through all the pages! )

Looks good Wrennie!!

Only 6 months to go!!
Any of you maybes find out for sure yet? Any yeses turn to no's? Any no's now a maybe??? Inquiring minds want to know.

So the game plan is we're all going to mostly hang out and
We will have a gift grab bag event. Everyone who wants to participate either brings or purchases while here a gift that is suitable for anyone who may come. Then everyone gets a number. The numbers are randomly picked from a 'hat' and you go pick your gift. {{Trading is allowed}}

Anything else I should add??

PS How important is air conditioning to motel people?
I have an idea....
My friend owns a motel with a big field where people can camp. I'll have to see if campers can use a shower,She may be on town water where they do restrictions in the summer, she has a pool... Theres a bonfire pit. We could all be centrally located...
I'm sure Harry would let us rent his field, but no shower :p
Problem is she may be pricier than the other campgrounds. If we can get enough sites close to each other at a state etc camp...
I just dont want people spread too far apart when we're hanging out at night :cheers: ing
** ideas??**

Air conditioning is a must in this stage of life!

Which motel is the one your friend owns - I'm still looking into them...

If the whole family comes....it will be a motel for us....i like the idea of buying my gift when i get there, instead of coming across the border with it..
Can you pm me the name of the motel too??

The motel she owns has NO a/c

The Emerson should be up and running by the time camp comes. I have no idea of prices but I'm sure they'll have A/C
The Lodge is currently open

Thanks Wrennie....gonna check that out....AC is no big deal to me....as long as i get my shower in the morning

A shower and coffee are the most important things to me. I will be moteling it since I will have the baby. And wherever everyone else stays is where I will stay.

Also if any other singles are coming along, I will be happy to share a room.

It's off topic but I'll say it anyway-- Thank you Wrennie, you reminded me that I have to get my fishing license renewed soon!

I'm still a maybe, but if that 'maybe' turns to 'yes' I'll probably be a camper..

**Now, how can I convince the family? **

Mark you can tell tham about all the touristy stuff to do here. Make a family weekend out of it and hang with us too. I'd like to meet some of the people my teenage son was 'hanging out' with online if I could. {{and if I had a teenage son}}

I was thinking that too Wrennie....they have to come and meet us Mark

You guys will have a blast!!!after meeting with Rita, I know how special it will be for all of you:-)The pics from this trip will be wild with all the people

That might help!

or chenno

HEY......I thought you 2 were maybe's!!!!!

I was a maybe..But it just will not work out this time for me, too many things will be going on;-(

I liked it better when it was a maybe Angie

Not gonna happen for me...I can't leave Lola and I can't take Lola.

Same with me Chenno This maybe turned into a no go,, But Like Wrennie said There may be a next year!! This might become a yearly meeting

Wrennie, I will not be able to make it. I have to go visit my aunt and cousins and can only afford one trip a year. My uncle is in iraq and they would really like to see some family, they have none in virginia, we're all in washington.

I can't go, money is so tight it's not even funny..... :p Mark gets a week of vacation but it'll be used up for our yearly trip to the beach. If we can afford it.

I hope you all have a blast though!

I wish I could...But next year is always an option;-)But you all will have a blast! So cool we have the chance to meet our garden pals

Thorny won't becoming. Too far, I don't drive anymore since breaking my neck, and I don't have a car reliable enough to make a trip that far.
