 | Posted 10/23/2006 - 9:02am by Poohminator Yep. That could have been ours. Been lotsa news coming out of there this year. :( |

 | Posted 04/26/2006 - 11:24pm by KnocK It's that weekend of Labor Day...so I guess we need to get a site booked. Hopefully they will still have some left. |
| Posted 04/26/2006 - 2:14am by Chains early sept but nothing official i dont think |
 | Posted 04/25/2006 - 11:56pm by Anubis Is there actual day set for when the trip will start? |
| Posted 03/31/2006 - 12:28am by KnocK I believe it is still a go, it will probably be more clear when it gets closer. I think we need to go ahead and get the campsite. So I will get with Summer and see if she wants to reserve now. |
| Posted 03/29/2006 - 11:57pm by Chains im still a go |
 | Posted 03/29/2006 - 11:42pm by StArLeTz Okkkayy so any more updates on this? The only reason I ask is here the other night the news was talking about some kid and his mom visiting from Kansas found a (almost) 5 carat canary yellow diamond in the Crater over there. I was like, "damn, that'd make a nice anniversary ring..." |
 | Posted 03/03/2006 - 1:22pm by Dre neither....we would like to come, but we can't commit until later in the year. :) |
 | Posted 03/03/2006 - 11:34am by Flash Okay so I am confused....which one of you is cracking the whip? |
 | Posted 02/23/2006 - 6:52pm by DelMonte I've never been but always kinda wondered about it. Sounds like fun. |
| Posted 02/23/2006 - 1:10pm by Flash Dre I can always look to you for a positive uplift! ;) Good thing I didn't start planning this little adventure for the glory of it all. :) It shouldn't be hot in September or at least the nights shouldn't be. And there isn't one of us that doesn't like a good wink or two. I know TobBy likes it when Billy Bob flutters his eyes at him. :) And mud baths are supposed to be good for the skin, besides, not everyone has to participate in the same activities, that't what makes it great having such a large group. I'm just excited to spend time with all of you guys. Speaking for myself, it's been too long since I made you guys a priority and I want to change that. Anyway, Star, you guys just tell me what days you want to come, I haven't really heard any objections for Murfreesboro...it seems most people are excited...Anybody have any objections? :) Speak now or forever hold your peace...or piece...whichever. Oh, and I've been known to cuddle a baby or hold a child's hand, so I think it will be fine. :) I'm excited! |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 11:39pm by Dre Hey Guys, Chris and I would like to come but in all reality, I should be teaching by then. I really don't know what our schedule will be like. At the most, we would only be able to be there Sat-Mon and our travelling days would have to be Sat. and Mon. Note: Digging for diamonds isn't as glorious as it seems. Picture and big field with miles and miles of dirt that has been plowed up. Then imagine all of the hicks you can think of out there winking at you while they are covered head to toe with mud and dirt. If it is hot, it will be miserable. If it is rainy, think of it as been in a steamy mud bath :) Although, someone once told me that the best time to go is right after a rain storm because the gems get washed and if they are close to the surface, they will glimmer in the sunshine. However, will all this being said, I went with my family when I was 8 or 9 and I had a blast. |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 10:15pm by StArLeTz I'm cool with anything Flash, I'm glad that everyone liked my suggestion. Chains, BRING YOUR BOY!!! He and my boy can play!! (and Evan / Brynn too if they are coming) I think they'd have a blast grubbing in the dirt (if Murfreesboro is where we decide to go for sure.) **Edit to add** The only "negative" thing I can really say is I don't think Pooh and I will be able to stay as long as Flash and Knock, like from the 2nd to the 7th. I think that'd be too much for the kids, I would say maybe two or three nights tops for our little unit. :) |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 9:04pm by Poohminator Did someone say cash? Seriously though, Hunter will be 5, and Kaitlyn will be 5 months. |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 8:37pm by Chains the diamond thing sounds fun....if anyone is bringing kids, How old are your kids? If theres a few coming that are around 3-6 then i will bring my son zack and that might keep them all busy :) and quade....if you need some cash i will float some your way...you big overseas adventurer you. :o |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 7:02pm by Flash That, combined with the fact that you are a pisces...pretty much deems you as useless for planning of any kind. :) However, I do greatly love you...and that's why we are the geekhouse...because wherever one is lacking, another can pick up the slack. What can I say...you can't mess with perfection. :) |
 | Posted 02/22/2006 - 4:04pm by quade yeah, i work in the web industry writing software. everything's great as long as we're just feature-listing. but once we start to establish scope and schedule, then it's all like "eh, that's out of scope." and "uh, that was added with the caveat of..." :) |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 3:57pm by Flash Oh I see...we start making some decisions and you guys get a little crazy with excuses...man I have a baby or I'm going overseas...whatever! ;) It's still early, I just don't want to wait until the last minute to make a decision so I'm starting now. Just keep me up-to-date. :) |
| Posted 02/22/2006 - 3:05pm by Poohminator I've been only to the diamond digging part and in the middle of July. It was HOT!!! But September is a different story. I didn't realize that there was all that other stuff there. I think we are both up for it. Our only hurdle is the baby. Gotta figure out what we want to do about that. |
