FIRST ANNUAL PTO PIKNIK WEEKEND-JULY 23!!!!

Post by Maximus » Wed Jun 08, 2016 10:21 am

Unfortunately I am going to bail on our first annual picnic. A lot has changed since I had this admittedly awesome idea for a get-together and these changes ultimately affect my availability.

It's also a super LONG drive and requires me depending on others to watch the flock, dog, cats, bees, maybe ducklings?

There are so many of you I'm hoping to meet one day. If the picnic is down this way next year, I'll be in a much better position to attend.

I hope everyone has a great time and it's a huge success, with many more to follow.

Jan, a special thank you for you and your family for offering up your home to everyone. It really is exceptionally generous of you.

Take a lot of pictures!!!

Cheers!!!

I really think it's a good idea to have an annual piknik in different areas so no one is left out. Sorry you can't come.

When sandy and i were talking once i started to kick around the idea of having a couple bbqs/pikniks..
Same day....but different places and then setting up a skype between them....

Hmmm! Unfortunate if we have to splinter up, but the Skype thing could work, and be fun...I will have to go router shopping, the one I use is unreliable at best (but it's unreliable at $$$ and 900 feet LOL)

Way too much ross! We get people to live at the farm while we are gone usually. But we may board the dogs this time....tango is a huge issue...chicken eating running machine!!
