A. I'm an idiot; looked at the date incorrectly, next Saturday is the 22nd (which is when we have a wedding to shoot) so I can make this GTG.

B. Uhh, TN is not 0-4 and how was that game last night, James? I know I liked it.

3. I'm gonna see if I can get Cindee & Katie to come with; Katie's been shooting lately and she's much better than I; she may want to chase the geese at the pond, tho, if they're still there.

unprouncable-symbol-as-yet-unselected. We're just gonna have to see who can kick what when I get down there. I've been working ALOT on a project at work and I'm feelin' my oats so Jen may have her hands full. ;)

8:00 @ McD's and James is buyin'? How cool is that!

I was referring to the Titans. Sorry 0-5. The game last night really pissed me off cause the refs made a bad call on that INCOMPLETE PASS and we all know it was not a fumble. "Forward Motion"

Not sure I can afford to feed you.

Wow, I don't know if I want a piece of that "unprouncable-symbol-as-yet-unselected" and while I do like oats..... I concede, you win. You are clearly the master of all things kickable. :)

8:00am huh..... how far of a drive is it from here?? Does this mean I'll have to be getting up pre-dawn?? Man, those McGriddles better be the best damn McGriddles ever to grace the face of this Earth! ;-P

Thankfully cute little Katie and Eden's Lil' Miss SydneyBoo will be there to make everything all peaches and cream. And maybe even little Mr. Odin and Miss Odyssey? Add my boys to the mix and we'll have a good percentage of DPC's littlest models scattered all around us. But I think I may leave my boys home with Dad or I'll never get any shooting done. My littlest one won't sit still for a second. :)

I got you beat Kevin. This morning I woke up bright and early and drove up to Rome. I waited at the McDonalds from 7:45 until 8:25. Then, I thought everybody might be at the Sears instead. So I drove over there and waited till about 9:00.

Eventually, I decided that everybody no-showed on me (maybe because of the fog?), and I drove over to Berry and took pictures by myself (My own private GTG).

I drove home for lunch because I didn't really feel like eating out with myself. I am not much of a conversationalist when its just me. I look up this thread and see that the GTG is not till next week.

You may be an idiot, but I am an outright MORON! Sorry ya'll. I can't go next week. I made plans thinking that the GTG was Oct. 21.

P.S. The McGriddles were great!!

Sorry we'll be missing you next weekend Jeffrey. :(

oh my!! lol. that's hilarious. awwwww. sorry you wont be there.

ona side note: not sure if we will be or not yet. it'll depend on how Odyssey is feeling as she has some dental work coming up next week.

Just out of curiosity Jeff, what were the leaves looking like while you were there??? They're turning pretty good where I'm at a little farther south.

Crystal, I hope you and Elvis will be able to join us. But more importantly, I hope your little one is feeling better. :)

They were pretty yellows, browns and reds. You might be able to capture some color this weekend, but I am afraid the leaves have peaked. You'll see quite a few deer.

I wish I could go this weekend. It's really a gorgeous campus.

Hmmmm, I was afraid of that. :( Let's hope for a "windless" week to try to keep those leaves on the trees. :-) Not good for a week where "Wind" is the challenge though.

Thanks for the update! :)

Looks like I can make it this weekend afterall. What's the latest? Mickey D's at 7:30, or the Mall at 8:30?

10/25/2006 09:12:32 AM · #64

I'm pretty sure it's McD's at 8:00, right James?

Hey guys, it looks like I may not be able to make it afterall. :-( Turns out my husband has to work on Saturday so there goes my babysitter. It's possible that I could drag the kids out of bed early and bring them along, but since they are still pretty young, it would be more for hanging out then actually getting to take some photos. I'm just not sure how long they'd last, especially with that drive both ways.

So chances are that that won't happen and I'll have to catch you guys on the next go around.

But have loads of fun and take lots of great photos so I can kick myself for not being able to go.

Well, poop on that!

Cindee & I are bringing Katie along. We may not exactly keep up with everyone but we'll all have fun and get outside for a little while. I've been so freakin' stuffed in between work and business that I need some time hangin' out. Heck, I realized last night as I was working through wedding photos from last weekend that I hadn't gotten my e-mail at home in 4 days. That took about a half hour and I still haven't read it all.

You better bring those young 'uns and shoot a pic or two with us.

;P

10/26/2006 05:09:55 PM · #68

There's still the slim chance that I'll try to be there. It would be nice just to go and hang out and get out of the house for a bit. It really just all depends on how things go trying to get out of the house that early on Saturday morning. That's always just so much fun.

We're out too. Just too far and too early. To get the kids up so early they would be cranky by noon and ruining everyones day. We could come tonight and stay in a hotel but that sounds like too much trouble. lol. we're lazy. :P we need to have a savannah gtg. something more centrally located sometime soon.

Have fun guys!

10/27/2006 08:24:18 AM · #72

You guys can always come up later in the evening.

I would love to come down to Savannah for a gtg. Maybe we could do something in the spring either in Savannah or in Statesboro.
