Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Janie Date: 29 Sep 09 - 09:48 PM While packing, keep an eye on the weather forecast, in case you need to toss your Wellys into the trunk. Right now, "showers likely" has been added for the weekend. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Bill D Date: 29 Sep 09 - 10:17 PM Latest is 'showers Friday night & into Sat. morning, then partly cloudy Sat. afternoon and sunny Sunday'...with more sunny on Monday. low 70s daytime, mid 50s at night. We can live with that if it's accurate. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Janie Date: 29 Sep 09 - 10:23 PM We can live with whatever the weather is - I mean - we do it everyday. And unlike at Ramblewood, if you do get wet and chilled, you can go inside and get warm and dry again. (At Ramblewood, we could only get dry, but once cold, we were cold for the duration;>) |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Janie Date: 30 Sep 09 - 09:33 PM I'm all aflutter with stuff like trying to figure out where I stored my sleeping bag, wishing I had put the printer paper already used on one side in so the blank side printed the night I was printing out prospective song lyrics, and reminding myself to remember to bring towels. Not to mention seeing all you pals and gals again after a year. Glad the rooms are guaranteed for a late arrival;^) |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Janie Date: 30 Sep 09 - 11:46 PM Ha! I think I have everything rounded up, and mostly packed. Working late tomorrow night and want to be loaded up Friday morning so I can leave from work a bit early. See All Y'all sometime Friday night. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Micca Date: 01 Oct 09 - 01:11 AM Well, I am enjoying a 6 am Breakfast here in London before I set off for Heathrow on my way to Washington DC and the Getaway, The Fun starts here |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: jacqui.c Date: 01 Oct 09 - 04:38 AM We're on our way! Albany this morning and then travelling down as far as we feel comfortable to get an early start on the morrow. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Bobert Date: 01 Oct 09 - 08:28 AM Janie, Do you want any "mole plant" (castor plant) beans??? I think they are illegal to sell but I think okay to share with friends... Drive safe, Jacqui... B~ |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: GUEST,Dani Date: 01 Oct 09 - 09:02 AM May I have a few Bobert? I love those things, and need a new 'wall' for my front porch. I am doing laundry, packing, working, hoping to get my ducks in a row for a late afternoon drive up tomorrow. Can't wait. Will be thinking of y'all who are @ Chance and Susette's tonight! Dani |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Fortunato Date: 01 Oct 09 - 09:53 AM Dani don't forget the toast to absent friends (your name here) at 8:00EDT. Wish you would be here but we'll see you tomorrow. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: My guru always said Date: 01 Oct 09 - 01:22 PM We are so looking forward to meeting everyone either tonight or tomorrow! Just back online for a few moments before we set off again on our whirlwind tour *grin* Safe journeys everyone!!! |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: maeve Date: 01 Oct 09 - 01:29 PM You are going to love My guru & co. We certainly did here in Maine. At 8pm I'll be enjoying a Dave Goulder concert. I salute you all in advance! maeve |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: ClaireBear Date: 01 Oct 09 - 01:44 PM I'll be driving to the airport at 8pm Mudtime. But I'll think toastlike thoughts, and maybe see you at the Royal Mile tomorrow (if I can find it). |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Bill D Date: 01 Oct 09 - 04:29 PM Why, Claire...it's only 5 minute from MY house..we can just....'' Oh...never mind...*grin* |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: ClaireBear Date: 01 Oct 09 - 07:17 PM I would if I could teleport there, dear boy. But I've been working on my ballads anyway. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: jacqui.c Date: 01 Oct 09 - 07:26 PM WE're holed up at the Clarion hotel in Willmington in Delaware. Kendall's surgeon is happy with his progress, although just wants to do another biopsy in a couple of week's time, just to confirm. We've had a good meal, some alcohol and are settling down for the night to relax before the final leg of the trip tomorrow. See ya all soon!!!!!!!!! |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Bobert Date: 01 Oct 09 - 07:37 PM Well, thanks fir tellin' us about Kendall needin' another biopsy, jacqui... Tell him not to worry... I'll throw some tools in the back of the Honda and take care of that little procedure this weekend and save ya'll the time and gas money later... Ya' bring yer dress??? B:~) |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Dan Schatz Date: 01 Oct 09 - 09:50 PM With all due respect, Jacqui, you're a fool for staying in a Wilmington hotel. We're 15 minutes up the road and you could have had a nice private room to stay in. Sheesh! Remember that next time! Dan |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Janie Date: 01 Oct 09 - 10:56 PM All but a few last minute items are loaded in the car. Hope to leave the clinic by 3:00 and be hugging folks I haven't seen in a year between 9:00 and 10:00 tomorrow night. No Castor Bean for me Bobert, but thanks for the offer. I like it, but it is too big for my limited space. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Ebbie Date: 01 Oct 09 - 11:56 PM Chance - and ALL - how I wish I'd been in when you and your boisterous crowd made the call! I wasn't far away- I'm in the process of moving just 50 feet down the hall (25 people) and you must have caught me at a moment that I was 'out'. It sounds like you're having a great time- no surprises there. Anyone who has never made it to Chance and Susette's Pre-Getaway Singaround, pencil it in for the next time. You won't be sorry. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Dan Schatz Date: 02 Oct 09 - 12:05 AM We'll see folks on Saturday around lunch time. And we're bringing all the copies of Singing Through the Hard Times anyone could want. Get 'em while they're fresh! Dan |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Big Mick Date: 02 Oct 09 - 08:42 AM Unfortunately, I am not going to make it. This breaks my heart, but the work on the CD here in Toronto is going to take a day longer than I anticipated, and that would put me at Getaway after midnight on Saturday. I feel very badly, and I apologize sincerely to the organizers and volunteers for the finest folk organization anywhere. These folks work very hard, are devoted to the music, and are my friends. I do not like this as I feel strongly about keeping committments, and feel great loyalty and devotion to the FSGW folk community. I hope they will forgive me. And just as bad is that I won't be able to spend time with all of you. I truly look forward to this gathering, and seeing you all. I hope it is understood that I am hard at work on making this music and getting back in the musical saddle. Enjoy the Getaway, folks and know that I wish I were there with you. All the best, Mick |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: SINSULL Date: 02 Oct 09 - 09:10 AM Back in the musical saddle? Were you planning to perform Ghost Riders in costume again???? Seamus and I are content to stay in touch via computer. Enjoy all. SINS |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Dan Schatz Date: 02 Oct 09 - 10:07 AM We'll miss you, Mick. But since we know you're going to give each and every one of us who were counting seeing you a copy of the new CD, we'll let it go... ;-) And Mary, let's not bring up the Ghost Riders, or we won't get him back! Dan |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: SINSULL Date: 02 Oct 09 - 10:11 AM I still have the costumes... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Tinker Date: 02 Oct 09 - 10:58 AM And I was hoping Mick would keep my spot warm in the floozette line up.... tinker I'm coming in Sunday morning with Barry. Pick up on the Jersey Turnpike in the wee small hours.... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Bill D Date: 02 Oct 09 - 12:13 PM Sunday? SUNDAY? Too many no-shows and late arrivals.. what ever happened to the Jivaro Indian system? (plan a-head) |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Barry Finn Date: 02 Oct 09 - 02:24 PM Could any one at the Getaway ask Jon & Rika if they left a box of CD's at the Press Room friday night at the Maritime festival & let me now here. Tinker & I will be showing up at the Getaway Sunday morning for breakfast & I can bring the CD's if they belong to them Barry |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: GUEST,Janie Date: 02 Oct 09 - 02:52 PM Headed out the clinic door shortly, if not before then. See ya'll in about 6 hours! Janie |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: GUEST,Dani Date: 02 Oct 09 - 02:56 PM Mick's not gonna keep ANYONE'S spot warm in Toronto. We'll have to fend for ourselves. Shoot, Mick, I remember when a midnight run was right up your alley, too : ) Dani |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Genie Date: 02 Oct 09 - 04:23 PM It's OK, Tinker. Mick looks right down silly in a floozie dress with feathers. (I don't think he's Bobert's type.) |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: SINSULL Date: 02 Oct 09 - 04:49 PM There's always the lime green thong with potato. Even Bobert can't resist that. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Ebbie Date: 02 Oct 09 - 05:45 PM What? Sinsull, you mean that you're not down there? |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Tinker Date: 02 Oct 09 - 08:29 PM Hmmmm.... Ya know somehow that potato got left in my car a couple years back. I found it in a pretty gift bag.... Perhaps it would appreciate a make over in total flooze .... the thong was not in the bag.... Now if it could just be combined with the right piece of hideobelia...hmmmmm... Bill, I did plan ahead, but my cars decided to require repairs at the same time our income got tied up in the wonders of government contract payment delays.... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2009 - other stuff than programming From: Big Mick Date: 03 Oct 09 - 01:18 AM Just in from Paul's. I will write more in the morning ........ but to the double entendre monarch ..... you made me smile........ Mick |
