22 Jan 05 - Abilene Area Cachers Meet & Greet

[the3defaus]

Hello all![/i]

Per discussion with a few other area cachers, we would like to have an informal get-together for all interested Abilene area cachers. Recently, Abilene and it's surrounding areas have had some new additions to the geaocaching scene (ourselves included) that are interested in becoming more familiar with the area and it's local cachers. There will be nothing planned, so this will be an opportunity to get aquainted, discuss & possibly improve Abilene's caching opportunities.
Here are the particulars:[/i]

• Where: Gary's Pizza on Judge Ely

[/b] (behind Taco Bueno)
[/li][li]Day: 22 January, 2005
[/li][li]Time (proposed): 1300 - 1600 a.k.a 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.[/b][/li][/ul]
This is not set in stone yet, please respond with suggestions or comments. Also, FYI: The reason we chose the venue is because of the $2.99 - $3.99 all you can eat pizza buffet which would allow a low-cost family outing for anyone that would like to bring their "little cachers".

The coordinates for Gary's Pizza are amazingly similar to our "All Along the Watchtower"cache.

Well I can tell you now I can not make it. I work Friday thru Monday. I hope other area cachers are able to make it. This is a great thing to have. I enjoyed the one I had in San Angelo, quite a few people showed up.

As far as I know (have to check with the wife) we should be able to make it. We like Gary's Pizza. So will see all on saturday the 22nd. ;D

Oh you do tempt me so --- hummmm, I might need another "outing" by then and when we attended the last cache event over there, we didn't have time to do any Abilene caches ... so sad!

[BigJon]

Uh Oh I see charizard's numbers to be growing towards the end of the month. ;D

I wish I could go. I've never been to a group outing, but unfortunately I have to work. School will have started by then and I'm stuck working the weekends so I can go to school during the week. Hopefully I will be able to attend one in the future.

Thank you all so far for responding. I will send out a reminder email the week before. Also, please feel free to pass on this meeting info to anyone interested in getting started caching as well.

Okay, send me a reminder, I'll check my calendar and talk with hubby .... just gotta be social!

[ammoman]

I would love to see you again.

[charizard]

Well carp! I'm still working on getting there Saturday, my first choice of transportation (the plane) isn't available, as my partner is taking it elsewhere -- so I may fall back on the slower method (well depending on the winds!) ... that car....hummmmmmmmm, MUST CACHE, MUST CACHE!

[ammoman]

I am surprised Steve hasn't been on here reminding everyone of the Meet and Greet this weekend. Of course everyone is welcome to attend!

[the3defaus]

I sent out emails to everyone... OH! I did it from the geocaching.com listing... sorry!

PLEASE ALL ARE WELCOME!

[charizard]

Well "guys" I only have a second or two, as it turns out I have to work tom. so I won't be coming to the event - geez and I was so looking forward to it....well, there'll be another time.

[ammoman]

Thanks for trying!

Now I will go cry in the corner!
