I hope that last post didn't come off the wrong way.
I think we'll put a roast on friday so whenever people get here they can have a little. Maybe it'll last for lunch on saturday. We'll get sandwich fixins just in case. Head count and time of arrival! |

Robin and I will plan on arriving early Saturday AM. We have conflicts on both Friday and Sunday. So, we will spend the day Saturday and take it home after dark.
Let us know what we can bring as far as food, etc. Jim |

Greg, are you coming by water? Jim, same question. I need to know how much parking to arrange. I have room for 2 or 3 rigs and there's room for 3 more at the neighbor's. I can also work my way down the street if need be(great neighbors and your stuff will be safe). The ramp has a ton of parking but closes at 10pm. I've never heard of anyone being towed and I see trailers down there all night, but I would hate for a CCFan to have troubles.
Speaking of troubles, I shouldn't have made that half-fast joke about Sunday. We'll both be here Friday and I'll be here Monday if that helps with a potential air fare savings. As far as the rest of the arrangements, I have a few ideas but am very open to more. I'm thinking the roast on friday(I gotta eat anyway and we'll have a bear to feed ) and Amy wants to do toothpick surprise. We've also talked about getting fillets for Saturday night. I like what John said about the way things worked at the river run. A few people did a little more than others, but the work was spread out nicely. From there, take it away! Joe, if you're still thinking of coming, would a small piece of coosa board make it through airport security? |

Greg,
I will probably put in at Laurel Park (I think that is the closest ramp) and just cruise to your place by boat. I will just leave the truck at the ramp since we have to leave Saturday night...unfortunately! Your earlier comments are fine, no offense taken. I would kick us out Sunday as well. Fillets on Saturday evening sound great. We can bring our own or pay you for our share when we get there. Also, we can bring sides, desserts etc. You and Amy do not need to carry the burden of all the food and drinks. Call me if you want to discuss any other details. Home 678 566 0077 or Cell 404 375 4625 Robin and I are looking forward to meeting everyone! Jim |

Laurel Park is a 25 minute walk from here but only right across the street by car. If you leave the dock after dark you'd need to know the lake pretty well to get back or pull the boat before dark. Little River Park is right around the corner and less than a 5 minute walk; we live on the other side of that peninsula.
I'll pick up fillets Friday morning and we'll enjoy whatever anyone brings. At this point, I think the roast will hold out to lunch, but we still don't know who all is gonna be here. |

If she was I wouldn't admit it! You're a piece of work Tom, hope you can make it and understand if you can't. If not this trip then maybe the river run? |

Bring another good story for the 'campfire'(it'll be a grill in this case). For those of you who don't know, this guy can spin a yarn!
I'll get with my boss and ideas are welcome. |

All I've got to say is kytom and wife better come visit a fellow Kentuckian and don't forget the "Mountain Dew" from home! It could get crazy with too many people from Ky in the same house.
I'm open for suggestions as far as what people bring and then I'll post for everyone later this weekend what we've come up with on a list. Can't wait to see/meet everyone. These things are always such a BLAST!!! Wahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Amy |

Sept,25,26,27,.So is this the dates? Map,or address to google for maybe a NC State fan from High Point,NC? I use to live in Newnan,GA. Did their first digital cable wires in 2003 and 2004.Worked with a friend(PS Don't ever work for a friend) for 7 months on a 12 month contract--finished it in 7 months, he gave us a $5K bonus and said he was not doing any more contract work. So we came back to NC. No longer friends.So if the dates are set in stone,I'd be willing to tag alone if it's OK? Just me and the wife,Karen.

We'll be seeing you there Tom....and if I was bringing my boat you would be able to drive it. We are leaving it home and are hoping to get a ride. As far as an "arrival list" we are leavibg Lake Wales on Friday evening after we close the store. We won't be on the road till about 7pm. Puts us up there in the wee hours....probably 3am. Sorry. Wish we could leave out earlier. Greg: How about starting a list on here for arrivals, phone numbers and what we are bringing. Kinda like we do on the other threads (See Clinton Lake thread). I would but don't know how. Then everyone can jump on the list..especially to see what will be needed for Saturday evening. Gotta keep Amy outa the house and on the water! Just reading thru all the posts I am gettin' excited! john |

Amy is working on a 'to bring' list. We've got the roast, toothpick surpise, and the filets. Feel free to add to the list.
1 thing I'd like everyone to bring is $5 to put in an envelope to Keith. This kinda thing wouldn't be happening all around the country without his hard work. We have how many active threads on that subject? Wow! |

Okay, I know I was a stick in the mud in trying to get up there for this but eventually the stick has to be removed! Kaitlins Volleyball Coach told me this week that the tournament is Sat morning so it looks like I will make it afterall. I hope to be there late Sat afternoon/evening and bringing the boat. I hope to there just in time for a barefoot lesson or two and some of Mrs.Buffalo's toothpick surprise.

Tim, glad you can make it. Hopefully you'll get here early. We'll try to have as much as possible ready on Friday so it doesn't take too long cooking Saturday night. That way we can stay on the lake longer; and there's always Sunday morning. This time of year(9/25-27) we should get glass for as far as you can see any time of day.
I have extra parking arranged now both at the house and lake. It's gonna be a nice gathering! |
