Make and Takes? Mini Conventions?

[Sickie Ickie]

The weather has been fantastic. I really can't complain (which I do alot of) :) September has been awesome. The past few days have been on the cooler side, you can definitely feel fall in the air. Kinda of refreshing.

Oh where does she live?

Yes, but mostly we offer them tourists. LOL

Sure, party at my house. You guys are ALWAYS welcome at my house, even if there is no M&T. I am not very centrally located, but I sure wouldn't turn you away. I have lots of power tools too. LOL (And I don't mean bedroom toys edwin.)

[theedwin]

ROFL!!!! I was reading that getting all excited too... :( Now I know what to get JW! More power tools!! :D

[Nephew Fred]

I think everyone should come to Las Vegas.
Tons of rooms, great weather all year,deals on flights,ect
And I have a pool and power tools too........

[Craig]

Well, we aren't that far from Vegas, we could just DRIVE there. Not a bad idea as far as I am concerned......

[Sickie Ickie]

A great idea to keep in mind!

[chris]

We can just have a big road trip, lots of cool places to go! Where should we all meet?

[Sickie Ickie]

Saturn? LOL Wouldn't happen until next year methinks.

[putrid]

I'm kinda almost in the center of everyone. Got a shed out back ya'll can stay in. JK LOL I wont even get my hopes up. I don't have a pool. LOL

[chris]

Putrid, still would be a great pit stop lol!!

[Sickie Ickie]

only if the shed out back is an outhouse! :p

[putrid]

As long as you don't mind the two large windows. I'll set out a bucket and some news paper for ya'll. LOL

[EnlightenedGrinch]

I'm in NASCAR country. Concord, North Carolina---just north of Charlotte.
Yea, let's do a Make-n-Take at Edwin's house (when he gets one). No, never mind. No room. Too many AATs!!!!!

[Craig]

As long as you don't mind the two large windows. I'll set out a bucket and some news paper for ya'll. LOL

Gee THANKS, Putrid!:)

(just what I need, ink stains on my behind! HAHAHAAHHA!):)

[Sickie Ickie]

At least your hindsight would be 20/20. :D

[theedwin]

Sickie is on a "streak" night. (the good kind, not the bad kind...)

[putrid]

Guess I can get a rug out there if ya'll wana make streaks. LOL

[chris]

Guess I can get a rug out there if ya'll wana make streaks. LOL
BQ at P's house!!!!!:)

[Sickie Ickie]

I'll bring the tooth picks! :D

[chris]

I'll bring the sauce!:chappy:

[putrid]

I'll bring the mystery meat!!! Or if one of ya'll see something along the road....LOL

[Wiggy]

Mystery meat!?! I love surprises! This is getting more exciting all the time! :happyfatsanta:

[Just Whisper]

I know. Let's have a progressive M&T. Have you ever been to a progressive dinner? You take turns going to each person's home and have a different course of the meal at each home. We could drive to each of our homes and make a new project at each one. Or do the next step of the same project at each home. Or finish the project at the first home and just get drunk at all the other homes.

[putrid]

Because it made everyone want to have a BBQ here I guess my first project will be to see how long a streak we can all make on one piece of carpet. It'll be the 'Eat Mark and Go' project. LOL

[Just Whisper]

Cool putrid. At my house we will see how long each person can stay in a freezing cold swimming pool, unless we do this in the summer. Then we can build sand castles too.

[Craig]

LMAO!

(You guys are just WRONG!)

[putrid]

Just Whisper, put some of that color changing chemical in your pool. Make sure everyone holds it till they get to the BBQ at my place. LOL

[Just Whisper]

LOL Good one putrid.

[Papa Noel]

I'm in Bend Oregon, right in the middle of the state. Bend is right at the base of the Cascade Mtn. range. They call the area High Desert, but it's beautiful. I'm 30 minutes from Mt. Bachelor Ski Area, and the Cascade Lakes wilderness area. I think everyone needs to come to Oregon, plenty to do and see here.

[chris]
