Anyone near or going to be near the Gravois Mills, Laurie or Versailles area's next week? We're coming into town for 9 days...

(Wincing here) Well, as much as I hate to say it, my mother-in-law will probably for sure still be in town on the 12th, so the chance is less that I can be there in September... but Wednesdays are good for me (right now) and sound great! Does that help???

Ok finally all of women finally have to agree on something. Count me in as for Gripster, she will have to do this herself. Trying to get her back up here on CD. Glad to have her back!

Sorry, O.Nana! I had to check it out on a map and that's pretty out there in the middle of nowhere! Hahaha! Actually, discovered that you're really close to our state capital and that's in some beautiful, hilly country! In case others are unfamiliar as I was, it's about 2 hours north of Springfield and 1 1/2 hours from Columbia. Also, 1 hour from Boonville, another great town, so it actually looks like a pretty good location!

I can't remember for sure, but it seems like you're somewhere up in Kareybear's neighborhood. She's sans computer as she looks for her new home so she doesn't get to visit us here very often, these days. Maybe she'll check in or maybe others know if she is actually near that neck of the woods.

Do you have property up there, ONana?

[gripster2]

Count me in. The kids start school Thursday and I only have unpacking and organizing so heck yeah any distraction I can get I will take. Da-Jammin on over to Churchills..............

MrsG, yes, we just bought a home on Lake of the Ozarks there. We're heading that way on Saturday to close her up for the winter as we'll not be moving there until March . Just thought I'd check to see if anyone was near there.....

Ok Gang,

It looks like Sept. 12th is workable for most of us. Yeahhhh!

MrsG, with all of the other crazy things going on in your life, , we understand how tricky it is for you to juggle your schedules, and want to find a way to maybe make this easier for you. We know you'd really like to make the meet if you can....and I personally feel there would be a large void if you weren't there. So, what would need to happen for you to be more likely to be able to attend? With everything going on, it might not be possible for you to sqeeze everything you'd like to do into your schedule, but please let us know if there's anything we CAN do. Ok?

MrsC, are you going to be able to make it too? We know you've got things going on too, but to be honest, I've forgotten what your timeline was. Please let us know if we can expect to see your smilin' face when we gather. We sure hope you can!!!!!

LJ, G4, Gripster, Thanks for your feedback. We depend on it for the success of the OTFCC. Now we just gotta wait for Da Jammer & Caver to chime in. Come on guys.....we need some Testosterone for balance. LOL heheheh And remember Ya'll....wives, husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends are all encouraged to come too.

And for those of you shy ones that like to hide out in the shadows......(You know who you are), please know you are invited as well. It's for anyone in the area that is interested in meeting new friends, old friends, or just wanting to socialize without pressure. So come on....don't be shy....it'll be fun!!!

'Nuff for now,
Boof

Hey, Boof! I love the juggler!!! Hahaha! Thanks for the offer but it'll depend on things that I won't know until then. I don't want to abandon my M-I-L but if there's a way to bow out gracefully, I'll be there for sure!

Ooh! I know you said "MAY" but I hope you do! I think it'd be worth it! I can't tell you how neat it was to meet the others and sit around like a bunch of long-time friends! I couldn't believe how comfortable we were with each other! I bet you'll feel the same way, Voyager! Hope it works out for you!
