East Texas Roundup - June 28th in Tyler/Jacksonville area

Are you going to sing? ;-)

Yes, TJ, hadn't you heard? The Stones are playing at our RU.

he and josephine are going to dance, right bronc?

Well, I just figured that when "the man" threw a party, he would go all the way. Nobody wants me to sing, trust me! The Stones would be awsome!!

If you want the Stones to roll, you have to toss them over the overlook...

ROFL!

dave's gonna do karaoke, right dave?

Hmm

Oh boy this is gonna be interesting and fun for sure ...am glad no one knows of my school days and what I enjoyed doing And NO MAMA is wasn't anything bad....
my folks are talking of coming down from Illinois around the end of June and I was thinking if they did and were here at this time I would bring them along with me ......would sure make for a fun trip for them for sure.

dave, you gotta do your version of "i can't get no satisfaction". esp. since they're all wanting the stones. and don't forget the air guitar part this time. they'll love that. lololololol

Here is a list of folks that are coming. I am sure that it is not complete but looks good for our 1st RU.

Thus far we have about 25 folks coming with 5 maybe. I am sure that I forgot someone and did not get all family members. Correct me on any errors made.
Guess we may want to do name tags or have blank ones for folks. Also guess each will do their own plants promised list. I will go by and check on BBQ pits and other things like that. I know the main building has clean restrooms and vending machines (drinks/snacks). We also need to decide on food and what folks want to do on that. Since this is my first, some of you vets let me know how this goes.
See you soon.

eyesoftexas started a head count thread and I posted the list above that DdeTex made so anyone not listed can hop over and add your count to the page and I can update it as we go....if you like.

LOL.. ty Mibus... but with dh getting over this hip replacement, and the I-45 being my 1st evr RU, I am getting a bit overwhelmed about right now.... we could give your blueberry starts away???? hmmm??? LOL Ty again.. you are sweet for trying to help!!

Blueberry starts? How did I miss those? If there are any left, I'd like a few. Check my list, I add things from time to time.

uh oh... catlady..lol I tell ya what... I'll send a couple by mibus for you... don't think I can make this one... and then next year we can trade!!

that is fine Beck I understand the hip replacement recovery my grandma had one done years ago when I was a teen and I know it took her awhile to get back in order...... starts are fine.

and not a problem bringing some back for catlady

Thats good mibus... ty

Mibus... I don't DO pictures.. I will make sure I turn my back... or stick out my tongue ... at you !!..lol

anybody need french hollyhock? ox-eyed daisies? prob. shasta daisies? eupatorium gregii? tropicanna canna? orange beauty canna? yellow king humbert canna? spiderwort? mex. hat?

does anyone have any sempervivums..hens and chicks?
how about anything with blue flowers? esp. something that is blooming now or early summer?

Hey, Barb, what Shastas do you have?

i don't really know patti. i just think it's shasta anyway. and it's just a plain white daisy. it doesn't look like the ox-eyed and that's the reason i think it's a shasta.

mamajack, I think I have some hen and chicks or may get some from the co-op. Either way I'll let you know and put your name on them I would be inerested in some ox-eyed daisy.

I'd love some french hollyhock, cannas-if ya really need to get rid of them I'll take a couple of each I can put them out back so it has some color out there instead of just the tree and dirt colors brown and green

gotcha both. thanks catlady. which co-op are you in? i tried to stop myself from asking but couldn't resist. lol.

I've been looking for a plain white Shasta. :) Hey, is that the surprise?

I'd love a start of it has to be shasta, ox-eye daisy, and gillardia if anyone has it. Echinacea purple or pink, too.

"eyes"

no, the surprise is a puppy. hahahahahaha i wouldn't give you a dang daisy for a surprise. what kinda friend do you take me for? i'mona give you somethin' real good for a surprise. lol.
