Hoosier, Buckeye, Great Lakes Tri-Chapter gathering 2009

[Kurt (Indiana)]

One week to go!!!!

For those who want to bring wine (or beers) for the Wine tasting on Friday evening;
Please bring some small glasses for the tasting. If everyone has one (or two) for themselves, that should be enough.

I'm all packed up and ready to go.

Potluck Sat evening usually about 6:00 movie Sat evening about dusk.

That's normally all that's planned to allow plenty of free time for people to visit and enjoy the things the park has to offer.
None of the activities are mandatory but I sure wouldn't miss the pitch in cause it seems to get better every time with more good food than you can imagine in one place

And by the way, Laura is the nut cake!

Hell ! I didn't know she was swedish

And it won't until Kurt says so! You know the drill!

Hey Bob, I just looked at the link and it says 30%; I ride my bike to work (without rainsuit) when they say 30% so no worries.

Maybe I shouldn't have said that. Heck, I have a new side porch and am a diver so bring it on!

Hey Jeff when those ships are listed as "light" for cargo is that miller light or Bud Light ????

Menu addition. Yesterday I smoked a pork butt for 12 hours. We pulled it last night (I can see now I will be the butt of a joke about pulling my pork ) and it just fell apart. I have a vinegar/mustard based sauce made up for it and will bring buns and a North Carolina style cole slaw to put on top. Guess we could call it "Buns & Butt"

[bobhenry]

Hey Jim can you get a call in to the local TV station and/or the newspaper about our little get together this weekend maybe we can get a little coverage
