Planning for the future...

Well there has been some talk about the Christmas party this year-

Some people want it near Wichita- Some near Manhattan- or Emporia and I am guessing there will be a vote for Abilene.

I want to skip all the drama we had last year- We will list some options and vote - most votes win!

Remember as in past years there are people from all over the state that like to attend. (Wichita- Lewarence- Manhattan- Abilene- Nebraska SE Kansas)

Soooo lets get the first thing out of the way---

Where is it going to be this year?

We already have 2 votes for Wichita area that I know of (Clint n Garret)

We will also have to decide on type of food? (Mexican- Pizza-Chinese-BBQ-Burger- Else?) Which will decide the place- (If we have it near Wichita I know of a good BBQ place that can cater.)

I will have to say that Pizza Ranch in Emporia treated us well last year!!

So what is your vote?

FWW, Manhattan now has a Pizza Ranch. I haven't eaten there yet as it has always been too busy for my level of patience for quasi fast food.

How about Hayes House in Council Grove. Good food, off the beaten path so not easy for everyone to get to, and it is somewhat expensive. That should meet our criteria.

I was tongue in cheek with Hayes House, but it is a good place to eat. All you can eat buffet on Wednesdays.

I`m down for whatever at this point. It`s been far too long since I`ve seen half of you for more than a few minutes. I haven`t been camping or `Froadin in 2 years, My F150 hasn`t moved in 1 year. We used to get together way more often but it seems life has gotten in the way of a lot of our group fun. I`ll confess to be guilty as charged of being too busy and it bothers me but it is what it is. Pick a location and I`ll do my darndest to make it. Why don`t we meet up at the fancy creek camp ground and roast hotdogs for old times sake?
