Hi Guys,

Just want to remind everyone of our February meeting at Crispers, Friday, February 17 at 3:00 PM. All members and friends are welcome to attend. LOOK FOR THE TABLE WITH THE SIGN TOTV. See you there.

Wish we were still there so we could attend the newly organized event. Unfortunately, we're back up north where it is snowing at the moment and snow advisory warnings out until Sunday evening. High tomorrow is expected to reach 28 degrees. We'll be thinking of all of you as you enjoy your time together at Crispers in the warm weather.

Just a quick update...Appraiser was here this week. Getting ready to put our home on the market so we can make TV our "home." :MOJE_whot:

I occasionally think that I'm just about the longest-standing TOTV-er still reasonably active. So many new kids on the block!

My calendar has been marked for this event for eons. If I'm not there it'll be because something dire happened - like snow in TV! :a040:

Hi All, I've only posted a few times. Basically, I guess you'd call me a "Lurker" lol. I read TOTV every day....sometimes twice a day. I feel like I know some of you, just from your posts. I've learned more about TV from you guys, than I have from my own daily experiences, living here for the past 5 months. Most of you won't have any idea who I am, as I've mainly been in the background. However, if my hubby & I can make it on the 17th, we'd love to come to Crispers to meet you all. It all depends on the Tee Times for Friday. If we can't make it this time, I'll try to post more often, so you get to know me, instead of "Lurking" LOL :icon_wink: Ciao for now, Trish

Bill :)

That's it. I was going to attend but now with Mr Statistic, I think I can find other things to do.

Only kidding Bill. My sister will be in town from NY and it is unlikely I will be able to attend. But if I can drag my sister along, I might make a quick entry.

ariel

02-12-2012, 05:56 PM

I'm like you, Trish. I've been a "lurker". There is so much good information on this site and it's wonderful that there is a willingness to share!

wendyquat

02-12-2012, 05:59 PM

As I told you on the phone, Jim and I plan to be there. I'll come a bit early and help you set up!

Time for Tee

My husband and I will be there. We have waited 3 1/2 years to attend this event! :>)

Who will be taking the pictures and uploading them. I could do that unless someone else wants to.

Hi Ed, that's usually my job but would be happy to relinquish it as it takes a lot of time away from my dancing.... I'll still bring my camera just in case. Thanks for the offer.

Yorio

Was looking forward to attending the NEW Crisper's get together but we had invitation to visit the grandkids as their school is out Friday. With all the new volunteers, am sure it will be a very successful event. Look forward to a March event before we return up North. Have a great time and for all the newbies, wannabes and old timers, it will be a great time to share what a great place we live in.

sands

02-16-2012, 04:28 PM

It has been about a year since the only other time I was able to make it to one of these gatherings. If it's not a busy day, I'll try to sneak out of work a little early...would love to meet more of this esteemed group in person!

EdV

02-16-2012, 05:34 PM

Hi Ed, that's usually my job but would be happy to relinquish it as it takes a lot of time away from my dancing....

Well, we cannot have that. As the Mayor of Merriment, you need to be able conserve your energy to do what's best and make everyone feel at home, which is what you do so well.

I know Pooh has done photo duty sometimes, but I really don't mind, so I'll be there, camera in hand. I'll also try to remember to bring some large stick on id tags and a felt tip pen so that the names will show up well in the photos.

I know from personal experience that for those that can't be here or wanna be here, it's fun to connect our TOTV names with real pictures.

So I'll do my best.

See you all there.

I think it is gonna be a BIG turnout. I am practicing my hugging right now.

EdV

02-16-2012, 05:51 PM

Ahh, Gracie, the Co-Mayor of Merriment.

ssmith

02-16-2012, 06:25 PM

Wish I could be there to get a hug from Gracie and meet you all....oh well another time

It looks like I will be able to make it today. Jim is finally down here so he will be there with me. I haven't been to a luncheon since July.

graciegirl

02-17-2012, 09:44 AM

I have made up some easy "calling cards" on my computer to give to others who I would love to stay connected with.

Some of you may want to do that too.

Just a thought. Mine are just on typing paper.

Yorio

02-17-2012, 10:01 AM

Mike and Nancy I am glad you have taken the mantle and revived the Crisper get together. Look forward to hearing how it all went after the get together. Am sure the place will be jumping and no one will be left out. Sorry will miss it this go around.

Just want to thank everyone for responding regarding Luncheon on the 17th.

When we used to get big crowds at Crispers, I would always let the manager know in advance so he could "staff up". I'm not sure how many you're expecting today, but this is a nice courtesy.

I know Mike and Nancy will do a great job but I was wondering if a sign-up sheet might help people to know this is a TOTV function and who was in attendance.

Don't shoot the messenger but just a thought.

mikeandnancy1112

02-17-2012, 12:16 PM

Thank you! I talked to the manager last week to give her a heads up but you are absolutely right, I will call her now and let her know to expect around 30.

Thanks again!

Kathie, Sorry you didn't make it. I would have loved to meet you. It was wonderful to meet so many TOTV folks though and yes we got Popcorn to bring home and pop!!!!!!
I hope we have as good a turn out in March. I've been going since October and this was the best....Thanks Nancy!
