Guest guest Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 Wait for me.......Wait for me..... I'll be back in Michigan on April 15th and would love to travel to me some of you. Where in Wisconsin are you? I was also thinking that, depending where you are, Chicago might be a middle meeting place. I'm about three to four hours away and I'll bet there are others in close states that would be willing to get up and go to a mini conference. It would be better to wait for the snow to go away first, don't you think? We could all stay in the same hotel and chat away!!!!!! Fun..Fun...Fun xxoo Carmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 Carmen, That does sound like a fun idea! Just think...we could all sit in the whirlpool soothing our aching bodies and share laughs and RELAX! We would definitely have to wait until warmer weather though. I have fibro, and cold breezes and snowy weather isn't my favorite (or most comfortable) time to be sociable. I'm still going through a battery of tests anyhow, so I don't think I could go anywhere too soon. My son does go to college in Chicago (and I will be seeing him this month for 'family weekend'), but I'm definitely not looking forward to the drive if the weather is it's normal nasty February-type temperatures! Anyone else out there with any ideas? Let's put something together...come on, we'll all enjoy it! Jul Re: Wisconsin People Wait for me.......Wait for me.....

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2002 Report Share Posted February 6, 2002 About a Wisconsin " conference. " When visiting with Tom last October, we talked of some kind of " Stilligan " get together in Wisconsin. As most of you know, Tom has some very interesting " friends " that live with him. He has snakes, and some other little ones that need tending to on a regular basis, and Tom isn't always able to go very far from home. He lives near Wausau, WI. The rest of us, who have dogs and/or cats can usually find someone to take care of them for us for a couple of days. Tom has a more difficult time to find someone who will " snake sit " etc. But, he " really " would love to have a get together of some kind. As he *is* the man who started this support group, it would be super great to have Tom there, and hear his story about why he started the group etc. Where this would be held? I don't know...maybe Tom could tell us where he would suggest, and the rest of us could work around that. Then, I would also think that anyone who wants to meet there, would be welcome. I know there are several in neighboring states who'd love to meet. As to camping....that's up to everyone else. My idea of camping, is a Motel 6..or a Super 8, or Holiday Inn. hehehehehe! As to everyone sitting in a hot tub together..forget it. My husband will be with me, and I'm not shoving him off in a corner somewhere, but, he'd never get in a hot tub with anyone other than me. So, if everyone else decides to sit in a " hot tub " ..that's fine with me, I'll visit from the sidelines. Also, whoever wants to meet, their immediate families should be more than welcome. Proabably another suggestion would be the month of June. School is out then and that might affect some. If we start going later than that, everyone gets too busy doing other things. (I just remembered, Elly will be in Wisconsin for a family reunion...I think in July though, also Marty will be in Wisconsin for a family reunion..don't know when?? ...) Just my opinions..for what they are worth. Tricia (from Wisconsin) Re: Wisconsin People > > > Wait for me.......Wait for me.....
