*Jumps up* COLLEEN! PRESENT! or maybe it should be COLLEEN! FUTURE! or perhaps COLLEEN! SMELLS LIKE CRABS!

Who's going to be there? We shall arm-wrestle! Like friends do! I'll even bring socks for you to wear on your arms. Arms are for socks! Eerr...about the arm wrestling. It's just a fall back greeting style. I would normally offer my usual

Where is this, and when? I may be taking a trip upstate later this month, but didn't want to drive alone.

It's the 12th and 13th in Maryland, but I am always up for road trips! Especially ones upstate. As much as I try to deny my roots upstate NY is pretty damn cool. Let me know when you are going to take one!

Most likely, I'm going to go Sunday, October 21, to somewhere in Dutchess County (Rhinebeck?) -- barring bad weather or car trouble. About 2 hours north of NYC. They are having a festival somewhere that involves launching pumpkins on a catapult, and I want to take a road trip and see all the foliage anyway. I need to find out the exact details.

The little I've seen of upstate, I've loved. I really want to explore that area, but it's a long way to go by myself in a 12 year old car.

I'm pretty sure I'm free then! I am all about pumpkins and catapults! If I had the two normally in my life, I think I would be a much happier person!

It is indeed on Sun, Oct 21. Here it is:

If it's sponsored by the Dutchess County Sheep and Wool Association, it must be good! Pumpkin chucking is taking place at 12 pm. Those pumpkin chuckers sure get an early start!

Sounds amazing! Can Mikey come too? I told him about it and he practically fell over from excitement!

[herb_lehman]

Of course he can come!
