Okay, I assume that the date is going to be June 13th. Now we need to find out just how many people will be able to attend. So far we have:
AmberLee
krazyaboutkatz- me
Wolflady and her husband- I still need to talk to them to tell them the date and time
AmberLee and I can be there at 10am so we can save a picnic table. We should probably have the barbeque between 12-1pm. Does that sound good for everyone?
Thanks, KAK, for setting this up.
Yes, I'm coming. Right now I'm planning on bringing two salads: tentatively fruit salad and either a lettuce salad or the brocolli salad. I was also thinking of bringing some chips and a dessert.
Hmm... Still trying to see if I can come.. If I can go, I can bring whatever else needed.. like soda or something..
Also.. hmm.. does anyone live in the east bay area that's going? like the Berkeley/Oakland area? I'm not sure if my parents will be willing to go because they don't like driving to places that are further away than 15 minutes -.-' , but I'd love to bring maybe two of my pups (at least Megan..) to the park, and I also have a digital camera I could take pics at the meeting with.. ^_^ So if anyone lives in my area, let me know! PM me or something..
And it's alright if no one does.. I guess I could just wait till the next meeting.. :(
I'll be there!
That's great! Are you coming solo or bringing a date? [We're trying to get a rough nose count...]Quote:

*blush* I was informed that I forgot to post the address:
850 Russett Drive
Sunnyvale, CA
or the map
The phrase "Las Palmas Park" is printed approximately over the area of the park where the dog park is located. There is off-street parking adjacent to the dog park and there are picnic tables and barbeque pits off to the side.
KAK and I are car-pooling together and plan to arrive 10ish on Sunday.
Current nose count:
Amber
KAK
Wolflady (and precious little Preya)
Don Juan's Mom
WolfChan (and date?)
Possibles:
BCBlondie (transporation problems?)
RedHedd (workload issues)
I MAY actually be able to make it!!!!!! My mom said she wants to go to the beach Sunday, so I was thinking we could drop by around lunch (whenever you have the picnic running) and then afterwards go to Half Moon Bay or something for the beach...:D I'll bring my camera so I can take pics of the PT meeting...Quote:

Is anyone bringing their dogs? Or will Sesh and/or Megan be the only dogs there if I go?
I just received an e-mail from Wolflady and she won't be able to make it. She was going to be bringing her little dog Priya so unless BCBlondie shows up there won't be any dogs.:(
My cat Sky is more like a cat than a dog and I'm still debating about whether to bring him or not. I'd have to buy a harness for him. If there are going to be large dogs there, I'd hate for him to get scared. What do you think? Should I bring him or not?:confused:
Your kitty would be fine with my doggies if he's not scared of dogs... All of my dogs get along really well with cats. :) Seshy's size might scared your cat if he's not used to dogs.. Sesh isn't large, but he's not a small dog like Megan..Quote:

There's a 75% chance I'll make it now.. My mom said it depends on what she's feeling like tomorrow.. She wants to go to the beach too so I'm trying to convince her to go to the picnic so I can meet you guys and then go to the beach after. :)
Whooo-hooo! Less than 12 hours to picnic!
Current nose count:
Amber
KAK (maybe with Sky)
Don Juan's Mom
WolfChan (and date?)
Probables:
BCBlondie (and two sweet furkids?)

Regrets:
Wolflady (and precious little Priya)
I just got off the phone with KAK. We think we are bringing too much food, but... better too much than too little! I hope all that we expect and hope for can make it.
Yes, AmberLee and I will be there a little after 10am. I'm bringing a rose table cloth to put on the picnic table and I'll also try to make a couple of Pet Talk signs so please look for these.
The menu is:
Kentucky Fried Chicken Original Recipe
Mashed Potatos& Gravy
Biscuits
Baked Beans
Broccoli Salad
Fruit Salad
Some Other Munchies
Banana Cream Pie (From Marie Calendars)
Diet Coke
French Sparkling Lemonade- Regular,Pink,& Berry Flavored
Bottled Water
With all of this food no one should leave feeling hungry.:D
How come I live WAY down here??? Hope you are having fun, guys! I want lots of pictures and a full report tonight. :)
We had a small but select turnout -- and LOTS of food.
KAK and I got there a little after ten and snagged a table in the shade near the dogpark.
BCBlondie, her dad, sister, and mom showed up a little later. She brought two adorable dogs. I think the girl Pom was named Megan, and the shy black and white boy ... hmm, I missed his name, sorry. He was a very good boy though. They needed to leave early to get to their second outing of the day at the beach (Half Moon Bay? If so, they had a great afternoon for it.) As they left, Don Juan's Mom showed up and we spent the rest of the afternoon chatting, eating, and some work on a craft project. I hated to see the day come to an end.
Oh, funny story! There was a large party that sort of surrounded us by their very number and one of the young women in their group had a cute chihuahua (spell?) named Princess. Princess' mommy saw the sign that KAK had made [brilliant idea, by the way] about Pet Talk and was excitedly telling the others in her party that Pet Talkers were in the park. KAK and I snatched up our cameras and offered to post pictures of Princess here. She was thrilled. She thought it would be better if one of us were holding Princess, so some of KAK's shots will show a very happy me, cuddling Princess!
Thanks to all who made it such a pleasant day.
*Yep, photos coming*
AmberLee
Yes, we had a great time and the weather was perfect although it got quite windy towards the late afternoon.:)
Here are some of the better pictures that I took. I had a hard time because it was either very sunny or shady so the pictures aren't the best.

This is BCBlondies dog Seshy. He's very shy towards strangers because he was a rescue that had been abused. While in the dog park he mistook me for one of his family members and actually ran to me. He then realized it was a stranger and cowered. He's a very good boy and also very quiet.

This is BCBlondies other dog Megan. She's a pomeranian and a very friendly dog. There's also part of Seshy's head in this pic too.

Here's me, AmberLee, and BCBlondie holding Megan and Seshy sitting on the ground.
More pictures coming up.:)
