If I hosted a DU meet up at my house: Would you come to it?

[Whoa_Nelly]

Who would come? Plenty of room for sleeping bags. Large backyard for tents.

Would you dare to go to a DU meet up in Central CA?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. I would be there!

You betcha!

:woohoo:

Talk to you later.....I need to get my breakfast!

[Whoa_Nelly]

2. Thanks, CP!

You were one of the first I thought of when I posted this! :hi:

[Shine]

3. Sure, I'd certainly be interested! Where are you, exactly, again?

:hi:

[Whoa_Nelly]

4. About 40 miles south of Fresno

in a tiny town of about 23,000 people. (Lemoore)

[Innoma]

21. Hey not too far from where I live!

I really despaired that there were NO politically interesting people in this area. Looks like I was wrong. :)

[Whoa_Nelly]

22. So.....

where are you???

[Innoma]

23. At work, you silly goose.

But when I'm not working I live in Kingsburg. And what an uptight place that is, let me tell you!

[Whoa_Nelly]

24. True enough!

It's tiny and small-minded in a lot of these rural valley towns

[Innoma]

25. Its like a deep red nightmare...

Especially when you consider that Tulare County voted something like 80-90% republican in the 2004 election. Everyone I know (aside from my workplace and my wife, that is) is either ultra-republican or just plain don't care. We could use some demo activity in this unenlightened place!

[AllegroRondo]

5. Is alcohol allowed?

[Whoa_Nelly]

6. As long as you BYOB

and behave yourself :rofl:

[davsand]

7. Oh how I WISH I could come!

I'd LOVE to get back out to California--especially now when it is Feb in Illinois (not that it isn't Feb in California too...)

We did the first gathering of DUers ever at our house a long time ago. I have got to tell you, it was an absolute riot and I had the best time doing it. I felt like some kind of awful geek getting so excited over it--like I don't have any real life friends I have to meet people online or something--but once everyone got there it was more like a reunion or something. I was meeting them at the door and hugging everyone! There are still photos of Kef sitting in my house that were taken at that gathering.

I'm afraid we don't have the cash to get there, but I'd sure love to! You guys will have a great time!



Laura

[Whoa_Nelly]

12. Thanks, Laura!

It sounds like it really can be a good happening!

[proud2BlibKansan]

8. I am there!

Just give me two days to get there.

[Whoa_Nelly]

9. Just leave the pink eye at home :-D

You will be checked at the door! :rofl:

Seriously, you would be more than welcome!

Am just tossing this idea out here to see the response...if it's good, will get serious about setting it up :D

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. Gotcha!

Now I know how Typhoid Mary felt. Poor gal.

[In_The_Wind]

10. I'm on the other side of the country or I would be there!

:hi:

[Whoa_Nelly]

11. Maybe time it with your cross-country trip!

Now there's a thought!

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. Stop here on your way there

I'll buy you a drink.

[In_The_Wind]

18. I'd love to.

We'll have to chat by PM. I don't have any real plans yet ~ except just to go where the road takes me. I'll have a better idea which way I'm going after I look closely at this huge map I bought today.

:hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

28. Are you really going to do this?

Cool. PM me for sure!
:hi:

[Whoa_Nelly]

31. Just checking for now

But, if enough can and the dates can be settled for all..yeah!

[In_The_Wind]

33. Yes!

I get a funny felling in my stomach when I think about it but I'm sure that'll go away as my plans develop.
I'll contact liberaltrucker by PM with a few questions long before I leave home. That should get rid of a few of my concerns.

[In_The_Wind]

17. There's A Cool Thought!

but I won't be there until the end of July ...

You don't want to wait that long ~ do you?

[Whoa_Nelly]

19. Who knows??? May take that long to get it together

Ya never know!

[cfield]

15. I would if I could

It sounds like a ton of fun!

[Whoa_Nelly]

16. Travel with proud2Blib!

Now wouldn't that be something! A CA meet up with DU'ers coming from all over the place! :woohoo:

[cfield]

32. That would be awesome!

[Benfea]

20. No, but I might get a glazed look and breathe funny. -NT

[skygazer]

26. I would, I would!!

It would be a nice little road trip. I'd love to meet more DU'ers! :bounce: :bounce:

[Whoa_Nelly]

27. Cool!

Will keep this thread to see if there will be enough for a weekend meetup!

[Crazy Guggenheim]

29. HELL YES!!

[Whoa_Nelly]
