Quasi checking in. Welcome to the picnic JackaRoe. Don’t know if you’ve checked out the park website, but there’s actually quite a lot for young’uns to do at Red Top Mountain, and they’ll be welcome too, as will your Sasha Archergal. After all, if this gonna be a family get-together, then “family” oughta be there, right?
BTW, I am planing on coming. I’m not good at makin’ nanner puddin’ but I am good at eatin’ it.
I like the idea of bring your own meat. How bout some brats? Brats soaked in beer overnight and grilled. MMMMMMMMMMM… or if possible, beer brats! Brats boiled in beer with onions and peppers, then finished on the grill. I’m droolin’ here!
I can bring a big batch of cheese crisps if y’all want. They’re like cheese straws sorta.
How bout some party music? A friend makes me CDs from time to time with stuff ranging from disco to 60s girl groups. I could bring some of those.
You know, I know I shouldn’t get my hopes up and I know that a lot of Dopefests start off with a lot of interest, and then sometimes fizzle out, but I really believe that we have the right combination of people to make this happen and make it a fun time and something we’ll wanna do annually.
I ususally don’t plan that far ahead, but since I’ve started reading this board I’ve wanted to go to a dope fest of some sort. Oh Face is moving down to south FL, so I’ll get her to come with me so the drive won’t blow. Just remind me the week before to book a room somewhere. Oh, I’ll make Oh Face cook something too. Even though she’s from Chicago, I won’t hold it against her.
Yes I’ll be going too. Sounds like a good time, and I’ll be moving out there just in time to go too. So I’ll make accomodations so “the drive won’t suck.” But as far as cooking, I don’t know if you guys want me to go there. I’ll see what I can come up with. I’m thinking maybe some fresh guacamole.
Well, 'bear, I think JackaRoe is planning on bringing some “brats”, but I don’t think 'Roe’s gonna think too much of us soaking 'em in beer and grilling 'em the next day!
Good idea. I can just bring all the fixins and put it together right before we head up to the picnic. And best of all Flander had an avacado tree in his backyard, so I really mean fresh! mmmmmm
Oh, and yes I’m moving from Chicago to Coral Gables, FL. Heading to the University of Miami, yay!
At ease, Miss. Torie. The Dopestock '04 membership has awarded you the imaginary medal of diligence and , uh, fervor for communications above and beyond the call of duty. We are pleased to note you ave repaired your er, internet problem, and are confident those… e-mails, did you call them?..will arrive in due course. Well done and carry on, Number One!
Welcome to the upcoming party, OhFace and Flander! I’m sure we’ll “talk” again before your move, but y’all drive careful!
Earlier in the thread there’s a post about motel accomodations near RedTop mountain. You may want to make a reservation there when you get ready.
Cool on the banner, NinetyWt! Could you make one that we can use at the shelter as well? (I assume it will be one of those computer-generated ones, yes?)
I’ll be sure to check it out. I just hope I don’t lose the info in the month+ between now and then.
And yes, the avacado tree is getting some nice buds…hundreds of them. I’m going to have more HUGE avacados than I know what to do with. Anyone looking to buy? Will trade for Heineken.
yep, we gots a big plotter at work and I can make as big as we need.
Re: as to attendance, OUR car is rented and OUR cabin is too, so WE will be there regardless.
** Swampbear**, lemme know if you want me to pick up some brats for you Saturday and marinate overnite for Sunday. Me and Big Papa will be coming in on Friday, so we’ll have plenty of time. I think you will be tickled to see how much y’all are alike. As to big hairy men and all. But he’s all MINE !!! lol
