Please NOT A&W. I think I'll need a "proper" meal before we head out which includes salad etc. Besides, my only experiences with A&W recently are horrible...
Faye/Peter I don't know where you guys plan on crossing the border. Just thought I should mention that both Tim and Al suggest crossing at Sarnia/Port Huron...
My vote is strongly for Olive Garden. (though the ponderosa steakhouse is one of those places that has an enormous buffet) But if the A&W is at ALL close to...
Can everyone sound off about what they are definitely bringing? My list is too long to post in an itemized way (nina wrote it all out for me last weekend, and...
Hi Truly, I don't remember discussing a pin or clasps, but I can pick up the clasps tommorrow. What type do we need? Also are we just talking about a brooch...
Thanks Nina, I've never crossed over to Detroit before, so I don't know what to expect. I would like to avoid any major traffic though... no fun in a loooong...
oops - sorry bout forgetting to mention the pin and clasps. I like the lobster clasps, personally, but that's just me. Some way to close the necklace and the...
I'm good with Olive Garden, Applebees or Ponderosa.... I just think it would be better if we had a proper meal rather than fast food. I must agreee with Nina...
Close is good. The less driving on Saturday the better. I don;t think we'll need the room on friday, since we'll be too pressed for time to nap, and most of...
I have a cooler I can bring - it's ancient though, so it's probably not very effective at keeping things incredibly cold. We only need it overnight, so a bag...
Hummus sounds GREAT! :) I survived an entire weekend at a Minneapolis sca camping weekend based on my hostess having made a large batch of tabouleh, hummus,...
Oh, and I have a camera too and will bring it and a good supply of batteries. The camera takes poor-quality video, but it's easier than trying to wrangle a...
I just had a brain flash.... few and far between these days. I need your address so I can pick you up on friday. That will beat me wandering around the city...
(replied off-group). So, I have actually changed hotels. The Holiday Inn express has two queen beds per room, for the same price. I think this is a superior...
I can bring the cooler as we have a couple of newer ones here. I've also got ice packs that will keep things cool over night without having excessive water...
Ok - so now that everything is ready, bought, and packed.... Zachary has a fever of 103.1 He's been home with it now for two days - but instead of going down...
It would be, but I'm not sure if you're already overburdened. I have a small-ish one that works much better than the larger and older one, but it's a...
Hotel reservations are ZERO problem. We can cancel without penalty up till 6pm on Friday evening. Don't fret. As for this weekend, I'd rather not do it...
First and formost... I hope you and Zachary are felling better soon. I'd rather not do this without you. I'm not garb making proficient, and I think we (as a...
The only thing that matters is the health of Tru and Zach. I also don't want to do this without a full team as that is where the fun is. I don't care when...
I'm feeling much worse today, and I think I simply have to cancel. (Zach has made a miraculous recovery. We'll see if it holds - if he's still fever free by...
Good to hear about Zach feeling better. Do take care of yourself (or, you know, make Tim do it). Hotel is cancelled, and I'm going to put my notions aside...
I hope you feel better soon :) Hopefully Zach is over the hump and going to continue getting better... nothing worse than being sick at his age... especially...
I just thought I'd bring this up for discussion.... since we need to sign up by Apr 4 if we want to participate Do we want to? Are we available? Just thougth...
I'm willing to see if I can wrnagle a day babysitter if everyone else is willing... comments?? Truly Carmichael Canadian Daytime number: 519-843-2117 If no...
Could someone remind me what weekend this is we're talking about? April 11/12? I might already have something on my calendar. I have to double-check. -P...
I'm afraid I have an evening 'thing' on the books for April 12. :( I don't think I'd want to bail out on you before the end of the competition just to get some...
