Anyone Interested in Getting Together?

**Ben Belton** · 07-20-2011, 05:19 AM

There aren't but a few of us, and we are spread Raleigh to Hickory, but maybe if we met up in Greensboro, it would be in the middle, and not too far a drive for anyone.

Just think on it. Throw out some ideas Maybe we could trade some of JCox's angels :-)

I wish I was a little bit closer! I'm up near Blacksburg, Va. I think local gatherings are a great idea...

**JCoxRocks** · 07-20-2011, 09:09 PM

I'm down for sure. Just let me know when everyone would be interested in meeting up. I work quite a bit, but usually get every other weekend off.

I lived in Radford for 10 years. Zooaquatic Pets wasn't too bad when I was there.

Well, I'd certainly be happy with a Gboro meet. Ironically, I was trying to decide if today was going to be rescape day and if it was worth mailing a ton of plants.

I am up for it. just try to give me a day or two warning on time and date?

**Wingsdlc** · 07-24-2011, 12:37 PM

It might work out for me. Have a baby on the way in Sept but we will have to play it by ear.

**Ben Belton** · 07-24-2011, 03:50 PM

September for me is the month that every organization, group, friend, or family member I know plants something I have to or want to go to. Every weekend has something going on. I suspect it is the same for most of you too. So I was thinking more like October.

**JCoxRocks** · 07-24-2011, 08:20 PM

October is good as long as it isn't the weekend of the 22nd. I'm in the mountains for a week.

**Ben Belton** · 07-24-2011, 08:22 PM

I vote we just join you in the mountains :-)

**JCoxRocks** · 07-24-2011, 08:57 PM

You are welcome to come along. However, being it is my one week of vacation a year, I suggest you practice understanding someone who speaks "drunk"

Wow... that last comment shut everyone up.

**Ben Belton** · 07-31-2011, 08:48 PM

haha.... I don't speak drunk myself, but I understand the language from being around people for years who do speak it. :-)

**Ben Belton** · 09-29-2011, 12:23 AM

So here it is almost October, and I haven't though about when we can get together. This month and September have been months for me when something has been planned on every weekend. Let's revisit this towards the end of the month and maybe we can meet up before life gets crazy with holidays.
