Need to check my calendar at work and see the date for the company picnic. Hopefully it isn't that day cause I love them roads around Thurmont

 

I want to be in the back this year, I was one of the lucky(?) nine last time

I should be able to make it....(note to self--bring a GPS receiver and maps. )

 

Sounds fun, count me in!

 

For Cherries and Twisties lovers, please don't forget to have your name on The List

I'm working on the detail, should become available soon. Please stay tuned.

 

Change to the 27th ! I can't make it !

 

They've predicted that cherries will be fully bloom on the 29th.

 

Bloody 'ell Mike !!! PRIORITIES !!! We still have to find a couple that are still lost from last year !!!

 

27th ? What the hell was I thinking

We're having our "Scale" fly-in on the 28th, if you want to see some fantastic scale model aircraft come on by ! info for "Airplanes of the world" is available here

The 29th should be fine, love driving around that area !

 

If Chris can promise that we won't end up surrounded by Army MPs, I'm in.

 

Dave and I will be there.

 

Got us covered .....

 

It seems that we might need the card below, to use along with the one above.

 

I will be there - sounds like a great time

 

You all are too funny.

MiniPol, love the card! I made one like it for my dental visits and whenever there's a new receptionist, I ask her to punch a hole for me. The look of confusion and panic is actually kind of funny.

Mean but they always have a good laugh afterwards.

Bev and I will be attending as well.

Am I old enough to say "drat" ?

I'll be in Ohio celebrating my 30th and my Mom's 50th...Drat!

 

I think we all need grill badges that say "Not a Terrorist" if we are going around camp david again.

 

You can say "Drat !" if I can say "Dang Nabbit !"

 

I checked with the orchard, they said this will be another good year for sweet cherries and blue berries.

 

Images from this afternoon dry run.

 

 

Yeah, yeah, nice photos of the roads, but where are the cherries?

 

You got me. Actually, I did stop by the orchard today. The sweet cherries won't be at its peak, not until after 20th of this month.

So our date, June 29th, is perfect for cherries pickin'.
