Please see this thread on the Tearjerkers forum for gathering details and site selection.

For the sake of simplicity, let's keep all posts related to the Fall gathering on the Tearjerkers forum.

WTF

It's 1st of all in the gathering section of TJ where it gets lost and trompled over by all 50 states. Are we abandoning the "Hoosier" section ???????

Since the upgrade the TJ forum is not real picture friendly and my album has become all but useless.

I know it's a pain posting on both sites but I would have never found out about the fall gathering thread hidden over there if Scuba hadn't pointed me to it ! :fb

OK Bob, you have a point.

Part of the reason for "one" forum is so that gathering information is all in one spot.
The gatherings are all "Tearjerkers" gatherings so it makes sense to post there.

Since the new TJ forum has been used, the formatting (colors, fornt size, etc.) all has to be done twice in order to post on both forums. ( even more inconvenient)

But, if it means that we lose attendance (or pictures) or commentary, then I'll post the gathering information both forums for the rest of this season.

I'd like to move to one forum as people get used to it. Let's see how it goes.

Look for a "Fall Gathering" post on T&TTT as well so we don't miss anyone. :thumbsup:

Glad you made it. :applause:

The new system isn't so bad after you've done 120 reservations or so, but the old one was easier for sure. :thumbsup:

Scott, there is a Marsh store in Peru (about 15 min away). We can always make an "ICE run" so we can keep things cool.

I'll volunteer to do one on Friday (if needed.)
