Well, STMs, it's time for this RVM to turn in.
Most evenings before hitting the rack, I go outside. To listen and look.
My starting point is Orions Belt. No clue why. Just a few degrees of straight up, I guess.
And the coyotes are caroling. Dogs within a mile or two try hard to reach the high pitch of the coyotes, but never come close.
And I focus on where I am, and what I am doing. Just "being", really! But I mentally pinch myself, cuz I am where I want to be but must remind myself that dreaming is yet ahead, and THIS is real!
Rainbow. Even in the dark!

"Pastys". I misread that originally as "pasties" and my mind went somewhere else for a moment...which really made the comments about 'snarfing' and 'hungry for' a little strange...

I don't have a lot to say sometimes but I do try to keep up with this merry band every other night or so (then I spot a good place for a wry comment but by then it's several pages too late...). Wish I could make the GC but it ain't gonna happen this year. Hopefully I'll see some of you in Decatur in June & I can play the live version instead of the home game...

oh well, off to bed & back to w**k for another couple of months before I can pull the plug and start the grand adventure...

Hey #66... when you find that post where you want to make a comment... just hit quote and do it anyways... we seem to have circular conversations anyway... join in more often!

example...we've been over pastys a few times in the life of this thread!

Talked to Don and Colleen tonight. They will be making their reservation for 1.2 and are planning on being at Ruby's at Bryce as well.

No way we can be at Bryce. Wish we could. But, did I read something about a possible GC in Michigan in 2016? We'll likely be in MI sometime in mid-2016.

At present, our plan has us in Glacier in early June, 2016. From there we'll head to SD, then through Minnesota and Wisconsin on the way to MI. Sept. 2016 is gonna see us in Vermont. Let us know if any of you STMs will be in any of those haunts and we'll make sure we bring margaritas.

Of course, these "plans" of ours can all go up in smoke if we get side-tracked by something interesting. After all, it's all about the journey. Plans be damned!

Night all.

Oh plans... You mean those written in Jello, right?

Which illustrious Potentate might it have been who said, "plan the w@!k and then w@!k the plan."? It's the same for the journey, and you, my girl, have it down pat, apparently.

Journey on ... as and when. Might see you in Michigan!

Mackinaw City so if anyone wants to go to the island they can UP also has some great places but may be too far for others. We will not have a MH yet so will need a hotel or cabin.

It would depend on what people want available. Would we be meeting just to eat and visit or do people want other entertainments?

I heard from Clay and Pebble. They will NOT be able to come.

April will be here in just a few sleeps..... We still want all if the mutants to come, So if you are still undecided, i so understand, but we are getting ready to shift 99% of the boring plan talking to the other place.... With just a few enticements here.... Do not think we cancelled, oh NO, just changing the channel so this thread continues on with the loops, twists, and turns.... a rainbow slide.......

At 10 pm, i took the dogs out to potty, all was fine, i came back in, within 5 minutes Larry looked out and it was a blizzard of snow. Dogs had been at the top of the hill, they made it down in 5 seconds..... Terriers can really run..... Laughed for 30 minutes at them.... Which is as long as the snowstorm lasted.... All schools closed again today.... But at leaset Larry got the drive cleared yesterday......





Diane toftSFM#64....... (The Original Fast Talking Sliding Finger Mutant) and is retired, duh!

Hi, Mel. When you swing down our way, give us a shout. We're hoping to meet more STMs. We've met six, all at the iRV rally. We are pretty good tour guides!
