It was quite strange last year for my younger sister to get married on the same weekend. Anyway both sisters are quite happy with their hubby's so we will not miss this one. Only one I've missed was last year... looking forward to ANOTHER great time in KY. Connie is a hoot! Note to self don't forget the pie...

Ok Folks I have been way more crazy busy than usual this year but i'm still here. I am going to do some thread searching and get an estimated head count for our event. I need to know ASAP who all is coming so I know I have the proper ducks in a row. Also Anyone willing to help beg for door prizes is awesome. Remember folks I do this alone so all the help i can get from you guys is AWESOME. If you have any questions or to let me know you are coming please email me at connie9003@gmail.com

Yeah they really dropped the ball on this one. I was not happy. Evidently hey had a big staff change and we got lost in the shuffle. But hey all is well they will still sell us rooms but for 2018 I will make sure they don't drop the ball or we will go back to the Hampton !!!

one option may be west to Columbus, KY, the ferry over the Mississippi River to Missouri, lunch at The Glenn between East Prairie and Charleston, then the Civil War Museum at the Customs Building in Cairo, IL, then back to Murray. The museum in Cairo is managed by volunteers so hours are limited.

I will look at that, have had a few ideas but hey nothing is in stone until we leave the parking lot !

I have a call into them. We have been lucky in the past so maybe we can work it out.

I plan to attend - count me in unless the weather forecast calls for rain.
