New England Skeptics Get-Together?

Peacham Pond? I could WALK to that. Ice should be off by mid-June at the latest. Room for a couple of folks to stay here if need be.
 
PHOTO LESSON TIME!!!! YEAH!!!!!

(note to self, start working over time to pay for decent camera)
 
oh let's not schedule anything during Kittens graduation time.

I suppose after all the money I've sent that school I'd better show up to make sure they give her a diploma. And it had better look NICE.
 
I predict that kittin's diploma will ROCK! Just hope she doesn't take it for granite.
 
Tell me where and when, I'll be there. Most likely with Baby Boo in tow.


By the way, I think several get togethers might be in order here. New Hampshire in May, Vermont in June and Larry's in July. Maybe New York in April? Just a suggestion.



Boo
 
maybe we could use Kittens graduation as an excuse! To party in Vermont....and eat lots of ice cream at Ben and Jerrys and everyone go out in kayaks (she loves kayaks and we can bring a lot and she can give lessons).

Not that we need an excuse!

Oh she also is trained in advanced lifesaving and Boo is pretty good at first aide I've heard....

(please note, I'll be staying at the hopefully airconditioned, with a bathroom and electicity guest room at Chip or Jeff's house....I'll call it "base camp")
 
What's airconditioning? (Don't need it at 2,100 ft elevation...). But we DO have the rest of that stuff.

Is there something about New England ladies that makes this a common thread? One of my best friends considers camping to be: "any hotel on par with Motel 6".
 
snakes, bees (I'm really allergic), and the need at my age to sleep whilst others spend the night in song and drinking.....

Nah, I'm able to handle camping. Last camping trip involved....skunks raiding the food and eating it all (how do you stop them? You dont, they even knew how to pop open the lid on the tupperware container that had M&Ms), a tornado (there is no basement in a tent I discovered, you go to the cinderblock bathrooms and hope for the best while you cower for a few hours), and Lyme disease. I just don't see how any camping trip can top that!

But I love to kayak and have fun, so yeah, I'll be there. I own 2 kayaks of my own now, which is odd as you can only use one at a time....

No, no, I love to camp. Been camping since I was less than a year old. Actually, I was about to post that if there's not enough room in the house, I'll just pitch my tent in the backyard.
 
For years I attended a quilt meeting in Norwich Vermont. We would stay in dorm rooms. And every year it was billed as "get away to the cool Vermont mountains". Then some freak weather pattern would have little old lady quilters passing out from the heat. They finally learned to just park an ambulance out front of the hall where the quilts were shown.

Honestly, Supercorgi you put me to shame!

My very outdoorsy daughter likes for refer to me as "the LOAD" whenever we camp, hike anything outdoors. I love to ice skate and Xcountry ski. I'm just a little slower than ironwoman Kitten. For those of you that are MST3K fans and have seen the "Mole People" epidose you will understand the "LOAD" reference. It's not funny and hurts my feelings when we are hiking and she looks back and says, "Is the LOAD dead yet?" I'm going to go to a corner and cry now....

I recently started a thread to say I will be in New Hampshire in the second week in May (I live in London, UK). If anyone wants to meet around that time, I will happilly join you. If not, have fun, and I still might try to meet with some of you when I am there.

When you find out what the schedule of events is for the wedding, let me know--I think that a lobster dinner at Newick's might lure skeptics to the seacoast...lousy atmosphere, but great lobster at a very reasonable price, and somebody else gets to clean up.
 
YES!!! If it's lobsters, heck I'll attend a Sylvia Browne convention (and throw the shells at her.)
 
Lobster? Inexpensive lobster? Oh yeah Baby! I am so there. Add in meeting Tanja and it's a done deal.

I like Larry's idea of hotel rooms.


Boo
 
Ok, we should just all move in together.

Failing that, I'm in for the Lobster thing. I think.
