I think you can put me down as a "1" instead of a "?". Realizing it's a bit away I really need some WestCoast time. It will have been over a year come July. I'll be there (Dog willin' and the crick don't rise)

I'm counting the days - after seeing the fun at the Findley Dog Park meet, I can't wait - even if we don't have all those pooches to help us have fun!

[gini]

Rascal here......DOGS?? they are bringing DOGS?

[gini]

Rascal, we have a big fenced in yard - the dogs can stay outside and you can stay in the house!

Lut, I am glad that you bumped this up......because I was thinking that we don't want the enthusiasm to go away! You have ten hats! Wow!

[kohala]

Still planning on coming! Sorry, Grasshopper isn't a very good traveller - = = But I'll bring pictures and take a bunch too!

[NoahsMommy]

OK...here's a current list:

Lut and family (4)
Gini & Rascal (2)
NoahsMommy (2)
Wolflady (2)
TheAntiPam (1)
Luckies (3-4)
Kohala (1)
Lbaker (1)

I can't bring the furkids, they would be really scared. They are somewhat sheltered. But!!! I'll bring lots and lots of pictures!!

I'm really looking forward to this! There are two other members that are considering flying out, but I don't want to say who, just in case it doesn't work out. I'll be crossing my fingers though.

A reminder for anyone else considering attending...we can pick you up from the airport and/or train station.

Our family business is a screenprinting/embroidery shop so if you want good shirts let me know.


I'll be bringing Dylan and myself of course, and possibly Dan...my friend will have to be there because he is my ride. He's my best friend so part of the family.

I think Wolflady was planning on doing that...I can ask her for you though.

OK....do we want to plan on a time yet? Lut was thinking a lunch thing, which I think would be really great. Its a Sunday, so people could get home for work the next day as well.

And...what should we eat??? We know BBQ, so please write a few items that "your" BBQ wouldn't be without.

Lut wants chicken and corn on the cob. And I vote for tri-tip and watermelon....those are my "must have" BBQ items.

[kohala]

I love teriyaki chicken - we usually marinate boneless chicken thighs in teriyaki sauce over night, them skewer 'em and toss them on the barbie! I could bring a batch up, packed in ice, of course!! Let me know - hey, who's our coordinator?

[gini]

Hi everyone, the flu got me so I haven't been up to speed here.

Don't you think Kelly has been doing a great job? She has been coordinating who is coming and ideas on what we should eat.

Now I know that we will all get along because so far all we have talked about is FOOD! Sounds good to me.

I feel that if you are coming from a distance (San Diego on the train for example) you shouldn't have to worry about bringing food.

It will be easy for me to do many things in preparation in the couple of days beforehand and I am happy to provide it.

Do you all like potato salad (or is that potato "e")? I am told mine is pretty good and I can make that in advance. Fruits - no problem - I have good sources close by - Whole Foods - Farmer's Market etc.

Barbecue chicken - tri tip - teriyaki chicken - yum is all I have to say - and I can put all of that together......DAVID HELP!!!!

What do you all like to drink? Don't be shy - wine, beer, soft drinks (what kind)........just tell me.

Kohala I will email you later.......I just haven't been totally with it here - and spent a lot of time sleeping last week.

When we get closer to the date I will give specific directions, address and phone numbers by p/m to each of you.

Mystery guests?? Tonya maybe??? Oh Boy!!

Time - anytime - if you are coming from a distance for heaven's sake I am not going to hold everyone to Noon for instance - come on over!! Besides we will need to allow for "Pick up" time from the train station or wherever.

I think it will all fall together nicely and we are going to have such a great time.

I have a few ideas up my own sleeve you know - and I haven't told anyone about them.

My neighbor said to me - now, let me get this straight - you are having a large barbecue in July - and you have NEVER MET any of these people. YUP! She got it right.
