... WELL BY-GUMMY that's a schedule hard to argue with. Just keep protecting that rear quarter section with that huge sunshade, you have a lot of travelling to do! Sure don't want sun burn on the hips, etc!

Hi. My forms and my check are all ready to go and will be in the mail on Wednesday. Had to wait for my SS check to come in. I hate having a birthday on the 18th. It means I don't get my check until the 3rd Wednesday of the month. Ah, well, at least I have this all budgeted out and can't wait to finally meet everyone in Harrisburg.

I am sad I will not be able to attend as my husband is going to have a total knee replacement done the week before the retreat I am sad. I was so looking forward to this.

I'll give it a try. I don't want to be a hero, but since I'm a newbie it might be a good way for me to get to know some of the people who will be attending the retreat and for them to get to know me. I think I understand the concept, but I might have a lot of questions!

I'm not 100% of some scheduling things, but think that it is best if I relinquish my spot for now Frown. It seems very likely at this point that we will have a big commitment the weekend after the retreat and I just don't think that I could be away at that time. If something changes, I'll jump back on the waiting list if possible.

Just wanted to let the next person move up since the deposit due date is drawing closer.

... Kblue .. we all feel sad when someone has to drop off - especially when it's ourself! - but also happy that someone gets to go! Branson was my first and it was so much fun I was still laughing and gabbing a week later ,,, oh heck I guess now its a MONTH later! See you in PA!

I am excited for you KBlue! So far, I have been to 4 of the 6 retreats plus some mini-retreats Smile. You will have a great time! If my kids end up in the production that they are interested in, the rehearsals would be hot and heavy during the weekend of the retreat and I would feel bad being away. Doing my duties as a mom has to come before my quilting fun. I was so sad to have missed the COF in Portland--have always wanted to go to the show in Sisters! It was the weekend that DD#2 was turning 5, so it was a no-go for me.

I wonder if I'll get mail on Tuesday? The postal workers may need to take the day off. I hope they do - the mail gets SO wet on rainy days. My carrier doesn't seem to do much to keep anything dry.

KBlue - I am in Portland, near the airport. We have a few others from the board in the area. And now I am third down on the wait list. Sorry for those who can't make it, I have not been able to go to these nearly as often as I have wanted to. Hope I make it this time.
