CHRISTMAS AT THE BEACH 2005, Myrtle Beach SP, SC

[Dennis T]

Hey Kerry,

If you do decide to make it down, you might check with Dennis to find out when they are leaving.

Ross

I don't think I'll be making it Ross. My operation will be Nov 30th and I'll be in the hospital recovering from surgery 3-5 days.

Dennis T

[Ross Wade]

I posted that before I knew of your surgery, Dennis. You and Darla will surely be missed. There is always Mystic,CT next year. Or maybe we can find somewhere in upstate Virginia to have a small gathering.

Take care of yourself,
Ross

Ross, Virginia sounds good and we have to work in my Dads place at Lake Sinclair GA too. The beach trip is only 5 weeks away folks; lets spread the word and get ready. Anybody have one of those deep friers they could bring ? I'll donate a Turkey. Chip, you going to use Franks spare ?

You guys and gals got me really thinking about the tacky holiday decor.. I started thinking of some stuff I would decorate with if I was there with a teardrop !!!

Still dreaming (scheming, begging, borrowing... hahaha)

[Steve_Cox]

Sounds like a hoot!!! Have lots of tacky christmas decor, but no doors on my TD... Looks like it might be Christmas before I get finished enough to try to camp in it ... Did my LAST tent camping last weekend... Had enough sleeping on the ground.

Steve in St Augustine

[ALAN GEDDES]

Could everyone please verify that you are coming and do you want to do the load of firewood again ?

[SinWagon]

It is with great sadness that I must say that we will most likely not make it.

Looks like my boss isn't willing to let me take the Thanksgiving holiday period off and still take a couple of days for Myrtle Beach. After deliberating the 8 hour drive from Atlanta at length, we are going to prepare to see you all again at Little Talbot in February.

Have lots of fun for us, too!

[Ross Wade]

Carla and I will be there, with tacky Xmas decorations and all.

[Chip]

Heck,, with or without teardrop,,, with or without partner,, and any other situations that can be thrown in,,, I gonna be there,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and thats my final word,,,

Looking forward to good weather, good fellowship and some more dang good food,,, Jim and Rachael,, we gonna miss yall,,, but considering its a christian holiday and you got the "SIN-WAGON" it might be its best yall sort of step back on this trip,,, just kidding ya,,,

Packed and ready,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, well sort of,,,

If we get the people I will probably just buy a 1/2 chord lacally and bring it with me in the PU.

[Frank]

Linda and I will be there. Bought the paint for the weekender today, course it's not ready yet, still sanding.

[Ross Wade]

Hey Alan,
We have a smoker and would be happy to bring it down. For an average size turkey, it should take about 3-4 hours to gitter dun. So if you want to bring down the turkey, just make sure that it has been in the refrig for at least 2 days. If the bird is still frozen inside, it won't cook evenly. We can also do up a Green Bean Casorole....DO style


Ross

PS: Hey Frank, got the Weekender painted yet? Are you using an oil based paint?

[ALAN GEDDES]

OK Ross, I will bring one thawed out bird.
