This will hopefully make it easier to keep track of attendees, timing, location, and any other misc. facts.

Mia and I (Sarah) will be there, with maybe Mark depending on work schedule.

Mom2Hershey · 06-29-2004, 10:41 AM

Count Riley and I in....and possibly Tom and Kasey.

Calley's Family · 06-29-2004, 12:01 PM

Went ahead and made this a sticky for you guys. Have a great outing on 7/17!!

SMITTY · 06-29-2004, 02:13 PM

Hi guys - We'll be camping in Norwich (Preston City) July 16th to
the 25th. Where is Bluff Point, CT???? Zach & Sadie will be at
Camp Kennel in Harrisville, RI so they'll have to miss it! But I may attempt to try to find you guys. Father's Day at Meg's Point didn't work

:

Let me know!
SMITTY

Sarah · 06-29-2004, 02:51 PM

Bluff Point is in Groton, CT.

The directions read (straight from the website):

Off I-91S take Route 9S Exit to the end. Take I-95N to Groton, Exit 88. Turn right and go to the end. Take a right turn onto Route 1. Take a left at the light onto Depot Road. Go to the end.

It would be great to have you and your dh there Smitty, even though it will be sans-Labbies!

SMITTY · 06-29-2004, 03:10 PM

Sarah - just did a mapquest from the campground to
Bluff Pt and it is a 40 minute ride from where we'll be!

I'm not r.s.v.p ing definitely, but it may happen. Who knows,
I just may pop in & surprise everyone that day. I'll keep ya posted!
My DH will have to drag me away from you guys if we go:
you know what my real knick name is - both with our friends AND here at work? MOTOR MOUTH! You would all have a headace by the end of the day with me

:

:

We'll see - maybe maybe not!

Mom2Hershey · 06-29-2004, 04:53 PM

Smitty,
Even though it says a 40 min drive it is just due to the traffic. You can get there a better way from the camp ground. I can give you directions if you want to go since I'm so close.

malweth · 06-29-2004, 07:33 PM

We are a maybe. Both of us have a long weekend and we might be on the cape or in New Hampshire. We will let you know when we finalize plans.

JenQuinn · 06-29-2004, 08:28 PM

Bailey and I will be there. And I have a weid question I've been meaning to ask. What exactly does DH mean? And what the origin of that phrase? I kinda get it from the usage- but I'm dying to know for sure.

Sarah · 06-29-2004, 08:41 PM

Dear Husband is what it means when I use it. God know what other people mean

SMITTY · 06-30-2004, 09:23 AM

GusJack:
Whooo-hoooo - fill me in on an easier way! Don't laugh, but
I get a little nervous driving on highways that I'm not familiar with
(NO - I don't get lost out of my driveway) but where I am not familiar I do tend to get nervous.
DH said he passes - first day of actual R&R at campground and he's a little JOINER of all the activities that go on! I'll have more fun w/o him, I'm sure yackity, yack motor mouth!!

:
Besides, you guys are MY friends and he is clueless about this forum and everyone on it - except for bits & pieces I tell him.
If it's craftsman, or Nascar or that stuff his ears perk up like a pixie's!
Let me know the easy directions!

Smitty,
You are going to be at Strawberry Fields campground correct? Well, if we don't plan to meet until 10 or so at Bluff Point, I can come pick you up..no problem. I'm sure my dh would rather ride his new Craftsman Tractor than join a bunch of gossiping Lab Board members

Plus I can bring both Riley and Kasey and you can walk one of them (probably Riley since Kasey is a bit more difficult) so they can both go!!!

Better yet

your dh can go over to my house and take turns with my dh on the Craftsman haha!

SMITTY · 06-30-2004, 12:02 PM

GusJack - I just almost choked on my lunch reading your response! Oh my - I think this is going to work! Are you
that close to STrawberry Park Campground????

As time gets closer I'll give you my home e-mail address,
so that I can let you know my cell # for that morning!

I'm so excited, I just can't hide it .......

PS: I think I'm going to do something special for EVERYONE who is attending. Maybe party favors - if I start now!
OK with everyone else????
SMITTY

Mom2Hershey · 06-30-2004, 12:11 PM

Yes, I am that close to Strawberry Park. At the most, it would take me 20-30 minutes to get there, but that is because 165 is only two lanes..but you know that!

I will give you my cell # as well when it gets closer!!!

Who knows WE might have to stop at Buttonwood Farms on the way back for ice cream

Party favors sound great...we'll also bring (lots of) cameras, water, treats, and human food too!

Sarah · 06-30-2004, 01:54 PM

That's the spirit!

I'm getting very excited myself. We should maybe get an idea as to what we are all bringing so that I don't bring lets say pasta salad when we already have about 5lbs of it!
