Guest guest Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Margaret: We just had our Annual Picnic and had 25 families attend. (a total of about 80) and we used about 75 hot dogs and about 100 hamburgers. Liz Jayne/Picnic families <<Margaret, I'm assuming there's a grocery store near the Holiday Inn Express??? And then for dessert, we raid the Chocolate Factory! See you guys Friday night, Jayne>> Hi, Everyone...Jayne....I hope your sister comes, too. Yes, there are grocery stores close by. If you come up from the south, you will pass Stauffers (the best of the three) and Giant.....both on the left. If you come from the north, you will pass Weis on the right. Giant and Weis gave us $10 certificates and SKH gave us $20. Thank them if you guys go in. Bring money for the chocolate factory....Wilbur's isn't cheap and I think Hershey's taste better myself. Also, there is an Isaacs that is right next to the hotel....they are providing us with the deli salads for 60 people. I will have to stop in tomorrow and find out what exactly they are. Which leads me to the next question......how many hot dogs and hamburgers per family? Estimate please......I won't hold you to it exactly!!! I will head out Thursday to get food items. Let me know by then if you can. They are saying the flooding here will be as bad or worse than when Agnes went through in 1972. My sump pump has been running for 2 days but nothing in the basement......yet!!! I am more concerned about the sinkholes that may form.......VERY common around here. Take care, Everyone.

You remind me of my mom....she ALWAYS put the statue of the Blessed Mother in the window when she wanted nice weather. Its a small thing that my sister now has.....my Dad got stuck in the eye with a stick when he was about 8, and my grandmother had him sit in front of the statue and pray every day for his sight to come back. I'm sure the doctors told them it would come back in time, but he was always convinced it was the statue of the Blessed Mother that did it....LOL I'll tell my sister to put it in her window!!!!!

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 LOL Donna! I don't know why I still do that, but I do. I actually do like all the *old* traditions.........cause I'm OLD!!!!!! LOL Yes, have your sister put Our Lady in the window. We will not only have a dry day, but a sunny one! I'm convinced of it! LOL , Iggy's Dad, from Spain has told me of some beautiful traditions there. I'm envious of it all! Gail :-) LOL Gail.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 LOL Louise...reminds me of the time I rented a limmo to take my friends out for a birthday celebration (easier for me to do them all at one time) The place we were going to was about an hour away, so we said the ry on the way. We had said to the driver that we hoped he didn't mind and he pulled his beads from his pocket and said it sure beat saying it all alone as he usually did! LOL Funny how that connected us all. We stayed in touch with him until the day he died. Gail :-) Think I will go pull out my ry now and take it along. My parents used to say it when they were on trips.
