Yes! I've been meaning to get around to suggesting something myself. Do you have any dates or locations in mind?

well, i'm single, & have no life
so i'm pretty open. i do have a trip coming up - i'm leaving on the 24th of july for about 8 days. but after that, i only have daytime stuff, & since most people work during the day, that shouldn't be a problem. once we know who all wants to participate, i thought we could pick a sorta 'central' location. for example - you & i could meet somewhere halfway between Plano & Sanger, like Lewisville or Carrolton, for example. depends who else wants to do it!

We probably need to give the post a week or so to get noticed by all the members in the area... I know of at least two more who will want to come!

We move the daughter into her new apt, beginning next week (out-of-state). Then a wedding, also out-of-state. Finally, work will be starting up......
what area of the metroplex do you live in?

Wishing I were anywhere but here
I would love to come, but I wish you guys were closer. I'm all the way down in Killeen and work 8-5 and have already taken off for errands I really need to get done.
Maybe next time...

Definitely inside! I swoon if it gets over 70.


Howbout this: everyone who would like to come, please post your location in this thread -- as specifically as you're willing to. For example, Plano is a big place -- but if I tell you I'm near Spring Creek and Coit, that gives you a better idea.

I'll map where we all are and figure out what area would be kindasorta central for all of us, then ask for some proposed sites in that area... okay?

Being a nurse, I don't have any set days off. We write our new schedule about a month in advance, so if I had enough warning I could schedule myself off for that day. If by chance I am working that day, I could maybe switch with someone else to work, or I get off at 7pm. (I start at 6:30am.)

I live in Allen, Highway 75 and McDermott area...

Probably be best to set it up for a Saturday, then. more people are more likely to be available that day. right now, Sundays are my only filled days - but i'm available Sunday evenings, anytime after about 3pm. i have conflicts in August from the 6th-10th, [most of those are morning conflicts only, except on the 8th & 9th] then inservice starts on the 20th.
i'm also out of town from July 24th-August 1st.
& it looks like i'll be traveling southwards to meet y'all, since i live north of everyone.

Thanks, Laureen -- that's a good idea, everybody, to list any dates you couldn't make it, too! Do Saturdays sound good to everyone?

I will be moving my daughter to Arizona August 15-19th, so I won't be around on those dates. Off to college we go!!


I will be off Sept. 8th and 22 as far a Saturday's goes after I return. I know that I am off August 4th for sure. I know this does not leave to many dates for Saturdays in which I am off, so just make plans for you all, and I can attend after I get off or try to work out something else. It is very hard to get someone to work for me on the weekends because everyone wants them off as well.
