Still here too! Just enjoying peace and quiet at home. CDQ is away at camp and boy child is in VA helping his uncle move. Wish I wasn't working so I could be out doing the hikes that CDQ won't do with me!

I wish you weren't having to work too!
but you need to lay down the law and tell that gal that she's sweating it out up those trails with ya...
when she gets there or when it's all said and done she will probably be glad she did.
you can even tell her I told ya to do it ;)

To be honest, there are many times that I would just as soon be boxing either with another adult or (don't tell her this) the dog. Not nearly as much complaining from the poodle (just have to stop at every 3rd tree). And sometimes it's just nice to have adult companionship and conversation. I love boxing with my girl, but I don't mind doing it alone either.

Seems like things got kind of quiet after the whole discussion about fried chicken and cheesecake at the top of Scorpia's killer mountain series for the upcoming gathering. (By the way, today is National Cheesecake day, which I personally intend to celebrate in grand style) Maybe we scared everyone off with such outlandish discussions? Don't know why though, cause that's pretty tame for some of us tarheel boxers.

The action has expanded. It was all on the NC board for a long time, but it seems now that new 'boxers are populating areas and now there are enough to talk on their own state boards. Look how the SC board has picked up like crazy. Even the GA board is showing a sudden increase in activity. We've welcomed several to this board recently too. :)

Now with the ball season under way you have been unusually quiet, though...

I'll get on here but no one ever talks back...
that's why I finally asked, "where is everybody"!
even though I have been told that it is impossible to ignore me...
I just don't believe that is true. :-P

Well, I'm not ignoring you. I'm still here and I still post here occasionally, but usually only when Mama Wolf needs to be brought back into line a bit. :-)

I've just been extremely busy lately carving a certain stamp to be planted for a certain gathering in a certain hot location, so I haven't been very chatty.

You referred to an upcoming "event." Is that a nearby letterboxing event or your own. I read these NC boards about once a week and do enjoy your chatter too.

I believe I'm the problem with Knit Wit's quiet behavior, but you should see the stamp I got from her to plant!! That's going to be a hard act to follow!

Mama Wolf *back to carving for a certain hot gathering* -- I believe there is a quote about "idle hands" which may account for Knit Wit and my "good" behavior lately. ;)

Uh, oh... shouldn't you be doing something for the Boone event? Or doesn't Mountainscorpia have something for you to do? Can't someone fix you up with at least a Boxing Buddy to keep you busy (or are they afraid to visit)?

Yes, the other state boards do seem to chat more now, so much so that even I often skip them. I rarely skip your board though, unless I am on hols. Too many friends here, I like to know what you are up to :-)

It will probably be in Asheville. Dixie is taking over running the Twelfth Night gathering from Mountain Scorpia and last year's was at Barley's Taproom in Asheville.

However, with Dixie in charge, she may decide to host it up on top of Helen's Bridge. In which case, I might not attend. ;-) Odd things happen to Dixie and Mojo at Helen's Bridge...

P.S. MerMom, Helen's Bridge is a part of "haunted Asheville". Lots of weird stories abound about that place. Just a little background since you haven't been around in a while.

well...
I like Barley's...the food is great and I love the history of the place...

BUT...
it's not the best place for children (which I adore and must have there)...
or folks who have a hard time with the acoustics of the place (it's awfully loud).

at this point I am trying to think of another good place...
wish we could do an outdoor pavilion but it's liable to be below zero outside...
or 70 for that matter. ya can never tell about these mountains.

so...
while we are on the subject...
any ideas?

Talk to Quality Forward - they are near the Grove Arcade (and Dixie's Letterbox Letterbox!) and LOVE to encourage any kind of environmentally-friendly family activities. I think the Exec Dir's name is Susan Roderick. They may have a big meeting room they'd let you use.

Just looked up "Haunted Asheville" and gee the tour sounds fun. I am looking forward to the cooler weather, though I've enjoyed my early morning boxing in the cool while the kids are asleep. If there are any early morning moms in the Charlotte area who have some boxes to find, just e-mail me and we can do some pair or group boxing!
