(Carole) Cleveland, TX(Zone 9a)

Getting excited now.... will be working this week & weekend to get some things potted up so they'll be pretty for the swap. May also be bringing some pots to trade.

Alba, TX(Zone 8a)

I'll try to be there. Broke two fingers last weekend and had emergency surgery Thursday. If they take the wires out before, then I'm coming! Don't know what to bring, maybe hot dog buns....Did I hear hot dogs are coming?

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Awe, Terri, I broke 2 fingers a month ago, not fun. But I did not have to have surgery, at least not yet! Praying yours heal quickly!

Alba, TX(Zone 8a)

Thanks! It was such a silly accident. I can't help but laugh now, but broken fingers sure do hurt like the devil at the time!

Linda Kay, I hope your finger heal up quick, too!

Hey Guys, where is Kenboy? he has always been a major player, I hope he is alright.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

I have not seen hi, posting anywhere for awhile?

Terri, I slammed mine in a big heavy door at Best Western in San Antonio. That did not feel good at all!

(Carole) Cleveland, TX(Zone 9a)

I don't know kenboy, but I just checked for you. His last post was in Feb. 2011
Maybe if someone were to dmail him, he'd respond.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

I'll see if I can find him

(Carey) Austin, TX(Zone 8b)

If only the RU were the next weekend - I will be in the Woodlands already!

(Carole) Cleveland, TX(Zone 9a)

Carey, I'll be driving up from Cleveland. If my friend from Willis doesn't go with me, you could ride up in my car.
Just a thought.

Any way we can post all the attendees at the top here?

Hello all,

We are doing good but our pc's are not. We fix one and the other one goes down. We were planing on coming but now Maggi is going to house sit in Fort Worth, so we will not be there. I still have some plants from last fall that needs to get in the ground. We will just have to catch everyone in the Fall, Have fun everyone.

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

I am glad to hear from you Ken, it is good to know you are both alright.
Josephine.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

Hi all sorry I'm hot or miss the weather has had fun letting me get on or kicking me off before I can do things and well with the work situation it's ben a lil depressing but I edited the top post with names and food items.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Hey Phyllis, I will be bring Cheryl/denimangle with me. Let me know what I need to bring please?

(Carey) Austin, TX(Zone 8b)

Cajun - thank you for the offer, but I think Austin would be a little out of your way! :)

(Carole) Cleveland, TX(Zone 9a)

ohhhhh Carey, i read that you were going to be in The Woodlands--that's why i asked *smile*

(Carole) Cleveland, TX(Zone 9a)

I've never been to a swap here, so can someone tell me if we need to bring chairs?
Is this a pavilion? I've been to several swaps at different locations, and found they're all set up a little different.

Thanks!

BTW, I need to add 2-3 friends as tagalongs... and I'm pretty sure they'll be bringing food and/or drink, and also something to trade.

Wells, TX(Zone 8b)

bring your chairs .and what ever else you would bring to spend the day outside with friends.. we have Pavilionss with picnic tables to eat at.but we spread out around it with our stuff. I usually bring my chairs and a small table to set my drink on while Im wandering around.. bring plant markers in case what you get isnt marked and some boxes to put your haul in to make it easy to carry back to your car or truck

Ive a truck so I bring my yard wagon for hauling all the stuff Im giving away and getting in return back and forth to the truck .. its not a far walk to where we will be from the parking lot but I have mobility issues so I try to do things the easy way...

last roundup at loves that I was at everyone was using the yellow wagon...lol..

(Carole) Cleveland, TX(Zone 9a)

gotcha! i used to go to a swap in Llano and it was a pretty good walk to the pavilion. we too spread out, and brought our chairs. a couple others i went to, there were plenty of benches all around. i have a garden cart on wheels, but it's not very small. i swear i'm going to invest in another red wagon! that was ideal!!! i used to use my little girl's wagon for all kinds of gardening things--she enjoyed gardening with me, and loved that we did.

Fort Worth, TX(Zone 8a)

Just lurking here....
I have a picture of a past RU at Love's Lookout, you can see it is spacious and has a large pavillion; the parking and restrooms aren't far either. People set up in the shade of trees when it is hot weather.
Back to lurking now....

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

Yes bring chairs as you can see it is a nice place to meet up

Bryan, TX

Hi, I'm new here - been lurking for a while. My sister posts here. Hi Mindy! I will be coming to the RU and will be bringing green bean bundles and a dessert of some sort.

I'll be posting a list of plants I can bring.
