We should get together in Oregon

[Ronastoo]

Me!  Me!  Me!
I want to see Martin's Playmoden and Tim's Halloween castle!

If we find out when the sale is then we can decide if it's a good weekend to get together.
I think I'll drive down after work on Friday.  But, I'll need to ask for Saturday off.  Now we just need to know which day I'm asking for off.

You will know as soon as we know, it will be great to see you again Rona.

Hi all,

I'd really love to come and I do have relatives in Salem, but don't think I can make it in October.  If it was during my fall, winter, spring, or summer break, I could probably come.  For me, it's about a two day drive each way, although I could always fly.

I stopped into Eugene Toy and Hobby and talked to the owner this morning.
He said the Anniversary sale will be October 3 through 9. They will be open on Sunday the 3rd for the first day of the sale. So we could go for the weekend of October 2nd and 3rd and do house visits Saturday then shopping on Sunday.
Or we could do October 9th and do both on the same day, or do some of the  visits on Sunday the tenth. Selection will be better at the beginning of the sale.

It looks like Rona is the only person who can visit from outside Eugene, so Rona if you're still interested would you like to name a weekend and I can try to book a day off?


If I don't book the dates tomorrow during my shift then I'll just have to chance it that I'll have some sociable time off in my schedule on the chosen weekend.

October seems to be a popular month for vacations at the library where I work.  It looks like I'll have to work on Saturday and then drive south for five hours and get to a motel about 10 p.m.  I'd have all day Sunday for shopping and playing and then drive back on Monday.   I think that means Oct 3 since that's the only Sunday of the sale.
Will that work for both of you?
Isn't there anyone else that wants to come play with us?

[Tiermann]

The 3rd works fine for me. I will have square dancing in the evening but probably wont have to be there until 7PM (unless I end up teaching the class again this year - then it would be 5:30)
Has anyone talked to Gepetto? I don't think he's been on, busy in real life?

[Martin Milner]

I PM'd Gepetto a while ago but got no response, I think his time is greatly occupied. I'll try contacting him again.

I'll book Sunday 3rd off work so as to be free all day. I look forward to meeting you Rona!

wish i could join you but we will be on vacation during that time.  i think one of the best things about forums is having such great friends that we would otherwise not ever know.  i know that i was so excited when rasputin and his three boys came to visit to pick up some extra playmobil things i did not want to keep.   have a great time.  kaethe
