MADS -- an outing that's a cut above [May 5th]

Shouldn’t be a problem for us.

11 is good for us. We’re closer than a lot of you guys anyway.

bumpity-bump A week from tomorrow, y’all. We need the official who’s in before a group deal can be considered. So far I read:

twickster
FairyChatMom
What Exit? and spouse
Mama Tiger and spouse
BiblioCat and danceswithcats

I did not shlep back through the first page or count iffies.

Speak now or hold your pieces. :wink:

My mother will be coming with me, since my spousal unit would rather have is gallbladder re-inserted then removed again rather than attend such an outing. :smiley:

I still plan on coming! My wife will not be able to make the trip though. :frowning:

I posted earlier about our coming. I don’t know if it’ll be the whole crew or not at this point, but I will certainly be there.

I’ll be there.

(I tried posting this earlier, but the hampsters went on strike.)

I just saw this. I love topiary! [/geek]. I know I haven’t been to any MAD gatherings but I am a charter member here and not on call that weekend. Can you pencil me in?

The list so far:

twickster
FairyChatMom and Mom
What Exit? and spouse
Mama Tiger and spouse
BiblioCat and danceswithcats
TwoTrouts
GingeroftheNorth, possibly with family
Scuba_Ben
psychobunny (Oooh, new people! I would have penciled you in, but I always get in trouble for writing on danceswithcats’ monitor, so I typed you in instead.)

Anyone else? That’s 13. If we have 15, we can get a free tour guide.

So you’re not only a compulsive screen toucher, but a screen writer?

We have the Towsontown Festival on May 5 and 6, in Towson, What Exit?. Maybe your family would like to head over there. It’s your basic street festival with vendors and food and the like. I think it’s 11-7 on Sunday.

It is my entire family. So my wife and I and a 9 & 7 year old.

Where is it at, maybe we’ll join you.

It looks like it if halfway between Baltimore and the Gardens, that could be cool. We are staying in Hunt Valley.

Hunt Valley is about fifteen or twenty minutes up from Towson town centre, where the festival is held.

dwc – thanks for the bump. I’m back and planning to come, but will need to head north again by 4, for another engagement.

Have we decided on a time to meet?

I believe we’ve decided on 11:00. I hope the bulbs were nice and bulby for you!

:smiley:

I’m still a maybe – I doubt I can, honestly, but I don’t know if I’m working that day yet or not. I should know by Friday.

The bulbs were bulbalicious, thanks! (My new [self-bestowed] title is “La Reine des Tulipes.”) I’ll be posting a link to Photobucket in the “Hi hon I’m home thread” once I’m done working with my pix – there are 283 of them so it may take a while just to get them all labeled. :smiley: )

Looking forward to Ladew – though I hope to keep the picture count for this a bit more reasonable – see y’all (including, hopefully, whiterabbit) at 11 on Saturday.

Hmmm. This is just a stones throw away from the Gunpowder River. I may toss my flyfishing gear in the trunk and hit the river on the way back!

See you at 11 on Saturday.

Could I interest anyone in swapping cell-phone numbers? PM me if so.
