BIG FROSTY Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Ya'll could come here to my house if you want, anytime.... My house would be the perfect place for many of us to meet, if you you don't mind driving up to the mountains near Lake Lure. I've had 65 people here for family reunions, and there's lots of parking. I'm just saying..... I'm 3 1/2 hours from Atlanta, 2 hours from Charlotte, 2 1/2 hours from Columbia, and 3 hours from Greensboro/Raleigh. It's a day trip on a Saturday. Seriously! Count Frosty in!

AcworthWx Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I have a question? How much of this would deal with weather as opposed to just a group of people that know each other getting together? Is everyone invited, if so I guess you could count me in as well.

LithiaWx Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 MM, that's pretty awesome! I hope something comes to fruition on this. I'm not the person but if someone would take this by the horns and lead, it could happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MountainMarvel Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 You guys just settle on a date, and I'll get the food and "refreshments". We could use the large Hi Def TV to connect to the web, and to do Power Points and such. I'm all for late winter, and we could hash-out January, February, and March.... Any weekend except April 5-8. I'll be in Augusta..... Weather is spectacular here in mid-April... check out this pic from last Spring. Last frost this year was on May 6th.

I'll be moving mid Feb, not sure of the exact date just yet, so I'm open to just about any date everyone decides. Mid April is my birthday and I couldn't think of a better present to myself than meeting up with the SE Crew Thanks again MM for the invite and the hospitality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Someone who has been around for years should take the reins and drive this sleigh. I think we would have a decent turn out if we had a date. We have someone generous enough to provide a centralized location (thanks MM) we just need leadership now.

MountainMarvel Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 There's a nice Hampton Inn, and a Days Inn just 20 minutes north of me on I-40, just in case anyone from the east and north might want to drive in on a Saturday, and make a mini vacation until we get together on a Sunday. Some very good friends of mine have the only restaurant right on Lake Lure, and the food and view is wonderful. We could meet up on a Saturday evening for dinner. How about "Tax Day" on Sunday, April 15th, for our get-together? I was thinking about noon, which would give everyone a chance to drive here without leaving home in the dark. Ya'll could hang around as long as you like after that. Seems like I usually have some interesting weather here about that time, and if 2011 was any indication, nature could offer quite a show. I don't mind a little rain if you don't! These pics were made within three days of April 15th last year within five miles of the house. Apple Valley and Bald Mountain golf courses are just 15 minutes south of me, and if anyone might like to play, we could have a friendly competition on Saturday, April 14th. Otter Lake just down the road has bass, so if you want to bring a pole....... I'm just saying........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MountainMarvel Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 How does Sunday, April first, sound to ya'll? Easter is the following weekend, and I'll be in New Orleans the previous weekend. April Fools Day might be the gem for this Southern contingent. I think Apple Valley Golf course will be open by then, if anyone is interested. I don't know when most of the schools have their Spring Breaks, but that shouldn't interfere with us getting together. Please let me know your pros and cons about this date. We're never going to please everyone, but we would like to come as close as possible. We're still talking over three months away, so we have a little more time to decide. Last year on April 4th, I had 50 mph winds with a temperature of 72 degrees at 11:35 p.m., and it rained 3 inches during the night. The morning before, there was ice on the Buick, and on April 6th, it was 29 degrees. Always an interesting time of year for weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
