05 Oct 99 - 05:46 PM (#121039) Subject: Roll Call From: Cara Okay, let's have a count of Catters who will attend the FSGW Getaway this weekend in Ole Virginny. Someone somewhere said 26, but I can't come up with that number so let's declare ourselves here. Allow me to be first: I'll be there!! Saturday only, I'm afraid. |

I was expecting to be retired October 1, but now I have to wait until November 5. Darn. Sure will be nice to go to the Getaway (get to the goeaway?), though. -Joe Offer- |

05 Oct 99 - 06:41 PM (#121059) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Susan of DT Dick and I from the other thread it sounds like Dani; Roger in Baltimore; Big Mick; Moonchild; Karen K; Sandy and Caroline Paton; Vixen there are also a lot of mudcats among the regular members of the Greater Washington Group, whom I don't think were being counted. Who else? and from another thread: Barry Finn; Jeri; Susan A-R |

05 Oct 99 - 06:43 PM (#121060) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Roger in Baltimore Marge and I will be there on Friday and will stay until Monday. I'm co-leading a workshop with fellow 'Catter Barry Finn. It's called "Making it in Hell". Bring any prison work songs you know or just bring your voices, there will be lots of singing. Marge likes to sing in groups, but she likes it better if you don't listen to her sing. She is still finding her voice. Roger in Baltimore |

05 Oct 99 - 07:34 PM (#121069) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Jeri Yep, I'm going - riding down with Barry, and probably arriving early Fri evening. I probably won't have a voice left by the time I get there. :-) |

05 Oct 99 - 10:10 PM (#121143) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Susan A-R Alas, I won't be there either. I'll be cooking for, and going to a Tommy Sands concert, and singing a bit of Kurt Weil though, so it won't be all bad. Next time. Susan |

05 Oct 99 - 10:11 PM (#121145) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Barry Finn Sad to say that Susan A-R very recently lost her Dad & will be staying close to home for her Mom. Although she'll be riding with us in spirit she'll be doing her own music thing with her husband both doing a concert together closer to home, shesays she's hoping for next year. Will sing a few for you & yours Susan. All the best. Barry |

05 Oct 99 - 10:19 PM (#121149) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: catspaw49 Well we tried...and I do mean tried!!! Karen and I were both looking forward to this so much.........However...Some of you are aware that Karen was offered and took a new job at Mt. Carmel's new lab. We knew this would change our plans a bit, but as things have progressed along, we have had to take some reality into account and do the best thing for all of the family. The new job will give Karen more relaxed time with us all and she's going to a place that actively recruited her for her ability. The best we could work out got down to being ridiculous. Doable, but if something goes wrong we're screwed. So for now, we're concentrating on getting the new position off to a great start and we'll take a short camping hop this Saturday and be ready to go on Monday. Both of us feel bad that we're going to miss this chance to meet so many friends we've never met...but there will be other times and other places. Cleigh is REALLY mad and just sits on his shelf and pouts. He'll get over it...but it is kinda' cute ..and sad. He had his little photo album and camera all packed up.

05 Oct 99 - 10:48 PM (#121164) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Jeri Spaw, I had a funny feeling you weren't gonna make it, and earlier in this thread, I was going to threaten to kidnap you and your family and drag you to DC, but you wouldn't have all fit in my car. I know how having a job can be, though - I'm going to get four hours of sleep Thursday night if I'm lucky. I'm really sad I won't be meeting the Spaw clan, but I understand. |

06 Oct 99 - 11:14 AM (#121298) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: lamarca Oh, fooo! I was so looking forward to meeting you, 'Spaw, and showing you tasteful applications of pink flamingo decorations (and I don't mean grilled, BillD). Good luck to Karen on her new job, though. We'll sing a set for y'all - if you listen hard, we're probably loud enough to be heard up your way. Hoping we'll all meet in another appropriate Mudcat Swamp someday, somewhere... |

06 Oct 99 - 11:35 AM (#121302) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Allan C. I will be there too. I will be doing a guitar fingerpicking workshop for beginners and beyond. We will go as far as to do a little melody picking too. I don't pretend to know a whole lot about it, (and I am certainly not a speed-demon) I just know what I know. So I hope that if you attend, you will bring some ideas and styles along to share. I said it before: I am totally stoked about seeing you guys there! |

06 Oct 99 - 01:05 PM (#121340) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: annamill OH 'SPAW! I was really looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful wife! Blast! We'll be having a gathering at my place in January for Bill/Sables and wife. Maybe you can come by for that. I know we'll all be thinking of you. Love, annap |

07 Oct 99 - 02:17 PM (#121753) Subject: RE: Help: Roll Call From: Allan C. So far I see something like 24 'Catters who have fairly well confirmed either here or elsewhere that they were going to be there. That's quite a bunch! |
