Just a Question . . . .

A few years ago I was on another board with 20+ other women. One year, in June, 12 of us flew or drove to a midwestern state to meet and to stay at the home of the 13th woman, who, bless her, was rich enough to have a house big enough to house us all, and we stayed five days. :-) (We all chipped in $100 each for food, etc.) No one here probably has a house that big or WANTS to put up with us -- what I'm trying to say is: are there any women here who would like to get together and meet face to face? We could talk about how, what, where and when later if enough women were interested. I live in southern California, and I could fly/drive almost anywhere. Europe is out this year. :-)

One thing we could do is fly into Las Vegas. I'm not a LV person myself, but the flights are inexpensive and so are the rooms and the food is good -- and we could double up on the rooms (2 to a room).

Anyone got any other ideas? I'm not a great idea person -- at least not when it comes to things like this.

I flew into Chicago -- got caught in one of those mideastern storms that are SO beautiful -- as long as you're not out in it -- . We were bussed to Madison, Wis., and then I called once I got to Madison.

We all CAN get together. We just have to know that it's possible and take the plunge. (Yes, I was scared when my plane took off in LA. I'd never seen these women before. Never talked on the phone to them. And I had never been to Wisconsin. But it turned out so well.)

Bella,

I am really excited about this. I think it could be really theraputic. I envision a lot of tears, and a lot of laughter. Again, I am in Arizona, so Cali or Vegas would work for me....although not sure what I am going to tell hubby yet ;-)

Summers are best for me because the theatre I work for is dark from the end of May till the beginning of September.

Yes Bella that was a thought that crept thru my mind too - what do i tell H.. that i made new friends on the end affair board.. ???
However, I generally go to meet my sisters in US alone so it would not be a problem flying out to meet you all while I am there.. thats why I showed the interest.. But chances of the get together coinciding with my trip are so remote ..
I dont know if it would work either
Hugs
Trish
