[sly dog]

Dam! Cant make it this year due to bein on call for work but brother keystone will be there. Never know, maybe i can sneek down.

[The Old Fhart]

While everyone will be bending elbows and enjoying the ambience of the Doyle, I'll be outdoors all weekend wallowing in the deep new snow while instructing at an AMC Mountain Safety Workshop.

Have fun.

Just up dated the Google spread sheet for what I can bring, for the big A$$ breakfast. Suggest you "hiker trash" plan on tossing a few bucks in the DoughNation jug. Mary takes care of hikers, hikers should take care of Mary.

Was alcohol involved?!

[ARambler]

I plan to come for the evening. I will be coming from my pub crawl in Selinsgrove.

Are there any updates on work projects?
I'm not planning to go to breakfast. Will there be an opportunity to make a money or food donation on Saturday evening?

The cakes (or loaves) are baking nicely. There's a warm glow in the apartment. To show deference to Jester's Mom, they are apple loaf cakes, or apple bread, whatever you prefer-- a lesser, understudy form of cake. See y'all tonight!

tragedy has struck! most of one loaf is down for the count, thanks to a poorly floured pan and persuasive, hungry family members. One less loaf of buttery goodness to bring with me.

Still thinking, we have to be back early Sunday morning. So we would leave 5 or 6 in the morning here and then have to leave 7 or 8 at night Saturday...... to be able to make or thing-a-ma-jig on Sunday.

So how was the event?

Thank you everyone for making me feel welcome. (That's when people go out of their way to be nice to you because you're new).

Wish I had made a copy of my poem before I handed it in. Jester, if it's possible to get me a copy, I'd appreciate it.
