If my memory serves me, this event did not occur last year, thanks Ike. Does anyone know if there will a regatta this year. CBeth?

That's the way I remember it, too, Lynnie.  It would have been held only six weeks or so following Ike, and things on the island were a long, long way from normal at that time.  But, I seem to remember having seen something somewhere to the effect that it would be held this year though. Sure hope so.  I enjoyed watching them all leave Galveson in 2007, escorted by the Elissa.  First time I had ever seen it, and I got a kick out of it. 

I think that was one our early cyber tribe meetings.  That could be a fun thing to do again if they are gonna have it.

You copying this, Cbeth?

the mostest bestest day! I met MoJO that day too. And don't forget to go back and see Lurkers pictures. way awesome esp. when viewede as a slideshow.

If it is held this year, then yes, we should try for another tribe gathering.

 Thursday Oct 1st let's do it!!

Sorry I don't check in here as often as I used to. Dixie's right, it's the 1st of October. And yup, ELISSA was part of the 2007 race. Hopefully one of these years we'll get to put her in it again.

Putting it on my "busy" calendar right now. 

I wanna' go!!! We'll be in Niagara Falls then, though 

Mel, Niagra Falls won't go nowhere.  The Harvest Moon waits for no man (or woman as the case may be).  Plans are made for changing.  C'mon down!!

yeah what Dawg said!!! How come you are able to visit EVERYWHERE cept our lil Island? HUH???

Mel, are you ever home?

I'll probably be here.  Y'all know me with my "busy" schedule *insert eye roll here*

If we didn't already have all of our tickets, reservations, etc. I WOULD change the plans! I would much rathe rbe spending time with my fellow cyber-tribers

Did you need someone to watch the pets?  I'm great with birds ;)

hahahahahahaha!!

Well crap I can't go either...can't take Addy out of school. We are going to Niagara Falls in Oct. too. DANG IT

Oh, I wish I could come!  We're scheduled for a visit October 15-18, and already booked for the Chickasaw Indian Festival in Oklahoma the first weekend of October. Drat!

Hi All,

Are there plans for this Thursday? Anyone meeting up at a particular place like we did 2 years ago? Please let me know, so I can make plans to take off work early.

Later!

meet at the same lace..across from The Poop Deck.

I will be an hour late. I get off work at 3pm ( 1500 hrs.)  I am off to spread the word on FaceBook. awfk,bbl

I will be there , and I will grab Mojo too.

So....where was everybody today?

We looked for some of you guys, but never saw a soul.  We met a lady on the seawall taking pictures who happened to be the wife of the captain of that converted Coast Guard Cutter that is escorting the boats.  She explained a lot of stuff about the regatta to me and Peg that we didn't know.  Of course she didn't make much of a dent in what me and Peg don't know, but it was nice of her to try. 

We had a late afternoon lunch up on the top deck of the Spot afterwards.  Sure did miss y'all.

since nobody replied after my post , i thought I'd be sitting there alone jst me and the construction workers building the jetty back up. So I stayed home and unpacked

I sure would have loved to see you guys!!!!!!

I drove by when I left work and didn't see anyone!  I sure was hoping I could have bummed a beer from old Dawg!!

Well, crud! I'm either talking when I should be listening, or listening when I should be talking.  Guess I'm falling into a bad habit of just lurking and assuming everybody is reading my mind. 

So.... does this mean that my mental telepathy ain't working?

since the Hurricane lots of us have changed homes, phones, and cell numbers.

Dixie had at one time made a private post for our digits. let's do that again,,eveything I have has changed..expect the dogs and cat..they never change.

Good point I guess, Cat.  I coulda called somebody if I had been thinking (assuming I had the right digits), but then the operative word here is "thinking", and as we all know, I've always been a little challenged in that direction.

Anyway, I've been on this here now forum and it's predecessor like five or six years now, and nothing has changed about my digits  (except that they are more arthritic now than they used to be), but if you guys wanna start a new directory, it's okay by me.  I'm too lazy to start one myself, but I'll chime in if needed.

old dawg:
