Thanks annamill!

I am picturing eight Mudcatters to a bedroom and six to a bathroom. *G* We'll just put the beer in the tub; it makes sense, eh? Yup, six jamming Catters in the upstairs loo, beer commandeered!

I just signed up a good friend and excellent volunteer to organize the local-pickers' side of this so Hardi and I can focus on enjoying Mudcat houseguests. I hope we will have a lot of drop-in's from the local talent.

LMAO over the multiple hams you had talked about in one of the threads-- we almost had two, for the small group we had, and we are still eating up the one we held it down to! Thank God we have a freezer. Sounds like I'll have to set up a Mudcat Meals section!

Can't wait to load up the dutch ovens out on the porch to simmer whatever people bring. Stone Soup, a la Mudcat. Have to tote the woodburning cookstove back out onto the porch to warm breads by day and cold Mudcatter toes by night!
