Somebody please make us a schedule so we can do the most we possibly can in one day!!! :) but then again, schedules aren't fun!! Oh well, we'll see when we get there!!

HI Dawn - can't wait to meet you and the rest of the Pound ;-))

I've found at gathers that I much prefer to sit around and gab, and get PT's, and exchanges - boxing is great, but the social part of gathers is what I love! Also, I'm not crazy about standing in line to find boxes out in the woods - but that's just me! And it is fun to go boxing with others that you don't get to see that often ;-))

I know there are some easy "close" boxes, and driveby's at Table Rock. And there's going to be night boxing - can't miss that!! What I've done - in the morning, visit, exchange, yadda yadda yadda until just after lunch - by then Baby Fox is starting to fade, and needs a break (she's almost 5, but still naps most days - very short nap, or it's a long night for mom - lol!!). So that's when I've done driveby's - she can snooze in the car, Foxy Boy reads or occassionally looks at the boxes with me. Then - depending on the gather - back to the event location to see what else is going on. By then, some early boxers might have come back - like those people who leave at 8:00 am to get as many boxes as possible *coughWolfcough* - and if there are evening/nighttime events - at least the kiddies are somewhat rested and there's a chance that meltdowns won't happen ;-))

So that's not a schedule, but just some thoughts ;-)) Of course, if you are wanting to work that 10 mile hike in on Saturday as well, you might want to come up with another schedule - lol!!

Yup, she doesn't want to stand in a line of 100 people for that 10 miler box..... ;-))

Mama Fox

Thanks Mama Fox! I don't think I'm going for the 10 mile hike, that would take up most of my day. I think I'll do alot of socializing and exchanges and then since it isn't that far of a ride, we could go back for a weekend sometime. I can always bribe hubby with a motorcycle trip as long as I have someone to watch the two baby dawgs. I'm working on cooties and I've got to make two more PTs and the "big Dawg" is looking forward to the coffee, while the Pound Princess is practicing giveing everybody cooties. She even gave my grandpa one yesterday and he just had no idea what she was talking about. Baby Dawg gets them a couple times a day and we had to go and buy her a little basket for her bike so she can have someway to carry them on Saturday! We're very excited as you can see!

9 days til the Table!!

I guess I'll be Mama Dawg

Hi everyone

I was planning on coming - I live right by the park so I am not planning on camping but I would love to be allowed to tag along for the night boxing and/or the hike. My little one can be brought home, I can do my feeding and come back, so that I could tag along if you don't mind.

Holly

Oh boy! Puond Princess and all of our kids are going to get along JUST FINE!!!!

a overnight camping group needs to do that box on Sunday morning.

I'd love to volunteer to do this, BUT I will wait to see how we are doing after this Saturday. We may not be ready to make that hike again!!!

We will make sure everyone who is not interested in LONG hikes can find the boxes that are short and beautiful hikes!

I am looking forward to relaxing at this gathering a little more than i usually do since I will hopefully ahve found most of the boxes. I won't have that Mam Wolf instinct (...get more boxes...get more boxes...) tugging at me: )

NOOOOOOOOOOO(luke skywalker voice on here)!!!!!

I can't bear it! The world does NOT need another clown that day, I am telling you! It's us 'cool' people that need ya!
