Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Charmion Date: 24 May 10 - 08:48 AM Edmund and I are in, barring the ascent of any geopolitical balloons. I have yearned these many years for an opportunity to meet the great Rapaire, swashbuckler of the Idaho libraries. After the Getaway, we will be on the loose for a few days before heading north for a family wedding -- Edmund's eldest niece. Who knows what might happen? Not us! |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: GUEST,mmario Date: 24 May 10 - 05:53 PM As far as I know there are no impending births, weddings or baptisms; deaths are our of my hands. |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Charley Noble Date: 24 May 10 - 07:56 PM We'll be coming back from a musical tour of the UK but why not just continue on to DC. Who cares if our house is falling apart and the tenants and kittens are at each other's throats? Oh, yes, Judy cares..... Cheerily, Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: ClaireBear Date: 24 May 10 - 08:14 PM Don, last year's full fare (event; lodgings for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights; breakfast Saturday, Sunday and Monday; lunch and dinner Saturday and Sunday) cost $193, a very reasonable price it seems to me. The Getaway page mentions that scholarships are available -- at least they were last year; the site hasn't been updated for this year yet -- and I know that other ways to save a few bucks (for example, committing to an upper bunk) were also listed on the registration form, which of course isn't up yet for this year. Hope I'm not speaking too hastily... C |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: katlaughing Date: 24 May 10 - 08:34 PM It's a lovely dream and I long for the day I can watch live coverage of it, barring my Rog retiring long enough to drive out there with me after we hit the jackpot, in more ways than one. **BG** Quite a line-up so far! |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: ClaireBear Date: 24 May 10 - 08:39 PM Maybe someday we'll have that western Mudgather in your backyard, Kat, so you can join in the fun! |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Janie Date: 24 May 10 - 08:43 PM I'm changing jobs the end of June and still don't know what is in store about needing to take time off for my family situation. I can't imagine having to miss my first Getaway since Dani dragged me to my first one, so....I imagine that I'll be there! |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: katlaughing Date: 24 May 10 - 09:51 PM Thanks, ClaireBear, I hope we'd need more room than my backyard and one loo, but we'd make it work regardless!:-) And, when I get the next book published and sold with the next one in its final edit, well, who knows..,some select readers have really loved it already, so it could go somewhere and then we'd really be able to be a bit more footloose and fancy-free! This is or something better for the highest good of all concerned. kat |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Rapparee Date: 24 May 10 - 11:01 PM There was a thread on a Western Mudgather couple years back. I offered Pocatello, then suggested other places. It would not be all that difficult to find a place for it here in Idaho or Western Wyoming. How about MOAB, Utah? |
|
Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Rapparee Date: 24 May 10 - 11:02 PM By the way, would it be possible to ship a box of stuff to and fro so I wouldn't have to take my trumpet, valve oil and so on on the plane? |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Janie Date: 24 May 10 - 11:12 PM Rap, Yes. Folk Trumpet? J. |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: katlaughing Date: 24 May 10 - 11:23 PM Naw, Rapaire, let's save that for another/the other thread. Not much in the way of travel is possible for me for now...just musing and shouldn't have brought it up. Now, back to your *trumpet??* |
|
Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Rapparee Date: 25 May 10 - 10:45 AM Yes? It's a silver-plated C. G. Conn, made in 1929 in Elkhart, Ind., USA. I bought it (used) in 1964. |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on ....

|
Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Micca Date: 25 May 10 - 04:43 PM Skarpi, if you fly into New York, from Pennsylvania Station the train (Acela Express or the North East local) goes to Baltimore and Washington DC direct and one of those nice FSGW folks might be able to arrange for you to be met. |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Genie Date: 26 May 10 - 02:34 AM You'd better not, Claire! Art, it's nice to know you might have room for someone my size in your car if you drive, but I'm curious as to how that swinging by Boston en route from Arizona to the Baltimore area thing works. Leo, I really hope you can make it. It'll be great to meet some of the Mudcatters I haven't met yet and see some familiar faces from 2008 as well. Genie |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: GUEST,Gene and Sandra Date: 27 May 10 - 10:58 PM 5/27/10 NEWS ! NEWS ! NEWS! Regarding this years pre Getaway party .. Some of you might remember Sandra and Gene (Adelphi Records)--that's us.. at the end of the Getaway last year proposing (threatening!) a seriously wonderful 2010 pre-event hoodoo at our newly renovated digs. {We live less than a mile away from Suzette and Chance's previous place.} Here's Gene with the lowdown.. The party itself will start at the standard 7:30 ish PM. However the event will begin at around noon of the same day. We're calling it the "Great Maryland Hoodoo Crab and Music Bash". There will be two instructional workshops: a beginners and an intermediate level regarding the does and donts, the hows, wherefores and whyfores concerning the art of cooking, opening, shelling and of course eating of the various parts of the world renown maryland blue crab.( By the way early arrivals get to meet them live before they get to eat them.) We're also planning on providing crash space for at least several persons or couples. Sleeping is obviously optional as are PJs :-) More on this as we get closer to the Getaway date. Those who need a place to crash please contact us by e-mail personally-- slkoppel@yahoo.com Priority to overseas visitors first..west coast, hawaii and alaska count as overseas. Best from Sandra and Gene-- stay tuned. |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Bobert Date: 28 May 10 - 07:37 AM Sorry, KT... I musta been smoked up when I wrote "No need for weed"... Of course, there's always need for weed and seein' as "Amops" lives in Potafornia I just figured he take a duffle bag into his corner weed shop and tell the folks there to "Fill 'er up!!!" and bring it with him... BTW, we're still lookin' fir a "chick" singer for BobertsBluesBand and, unlike the other ladies in the band, the chick singer don't necessarially have to have a big bottom... Of course. we do add a few points to the application if she does but it isn't a strict requirment... B~ |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Cats Date: 28 May 10 - 08:54 AM Now I am in a situation where I can organise my own time...... Looks as if I am up for coming over this year. I know Micca and Leadfingers will keep an eye on me and if they don't I'll produce the photos of Micca and I from 30 years ago [I look stunning...]and as for leadfingers... Shall I bring them anyway? Can someone please post a link where I can get details and booking form. thanks |
|
Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: jacqui.c Date: 28 May 10 - 09:04 AM Cats - there will be no need for you to be 'kept an eye on', trust me. So long as you are comfortable with a camp full of lunatics you'll be right at home. Bring the photos, anyway. |
|
Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: Cats Date: 28 May 10 - 09:25 AM Thanks Jacqui. They have looked after me for over 30 years and I can't see them stopping now!! |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2010 News --- Please .. whats on .... From: KT Date: 28 May 10 - 02:24 PM Yeah, Cats! I'm looking forward to meeting you! You will have a blast! Amos, thanks for your kind words, however, I reckon I've always leaned toward the "camp full of lunatics" side rather than the "always been in" side. Hils, I'm afraid that "no" isn't going to work this year. You must find a way!! Micca? DO something! Bobert....hmmm....I'll have to think about that.... Claire, Jacqui, are you working on the mummers play? |
