Originally Posted By LuLu I want to come down early in October too, mostly to do Knotts Haunt and also to see DL all decorated.

If so, I'll probably try to do the previous weekend (Sept 28-30), with Oct 12-14 as my backup plan
Originally Posted By LuLu OK I am definitely hoping to pass on Columbus Day weekend as it's also gay days, and sure to be crowded. So my tentative plan is 1st choice Sept 28-30, 2nd choice Oct 12-14, 3rd choice Oct 5-7. Sorry, but with a teen you have to have several backup plans! SGV, let me know what you think...

Originally Posted By LuLu No prob, murfsmom. If you guys decide on a date and time, you can just start a separate thread with that info in the title, to make it easier for others to find you!

Originally Posted By murfsmom hey shiva, well if i knew i could be ther at a certain time i would be happy to do it but because of a perception problem i can't drive, so i have to depend on someone else to get ther, my daughter and her kids are going, but that can change any time with her !! now if my friend beth(she was with me at the meet )goes, no problem !! so you can see why i just can't commit to it, sooooooo any one up for it ? i'm really sorry if i mislead people that i was doing the meet , i said before i'm new at this, i mean the only "thread" i knew was on a spool !!
Originally Posted By ShivaThDestroyer murfsmom, no worries, we're still a ways out from October and you'll know your schedule a little better by then. I think we're all fairly flexible time wise and it will just great to see you again. I'm the one who should apologize, you never mislead anyone that you were hosting a meet, I was just teasing. Sometimes that doesn't come across real well in a post. One last thing, don't worry about being new, we were all there once. The important thing is that you're here now and we love having you with us.

Originally Posted By ShivaThDestroyer >>>I am sure that we will be there from start to finish.<<< of this I have no doubt!! Ruthie, why don't you pass along my e-mail addy and cell # to her too. You know we're always missing calls in the park and 2 #'s might be better than one.
Originally Posted By murfsmom i knew you were kind of teasing about me hosting the meet, but i didn't know if any one else knew that, i know how you feel about the way things come across when you write them, it's like you think it sounds ok when when it's in your head but then some people take it the wrong way . i MIGHT try and host one next summer if theres another meet, do you have one on the 17th every year ? if beth helps me, i should just put her in charge any because she kept telling me all day on the the 17th that i should host one, and she would help me, so i'll just have to hold her to it !!!ram1984, i will e mail you, maybe tomorrow, , what nice people you all are !!!
