Posted - March 01 2004 : 4:31:25 PM Moving the 2004 Gathering Attendee List to its own thread; the better to find it by ... from http://www.mohicanpress.com/messageboard/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1168#11162 to here ---
But, first ...
So, today we had our first cancellation. I was bummed, and started feeling Deja Vu all over again, in the immortal words of Yogi Berra.
The roller coaster ride continues. Why shouldn't it? It's been like that from the very beginning.
At the moment, and at the risk of sounding a bit like a manic/depressive, I am on a high of highs. I remember speculating, at the 2002 Gathering, of what it might be like to have the Stanglers and the Sweetsers together at the same Gathering. We're about to find out, and for that, I am very, very, grateful! Yiiii-hiiii!!! Anyway ...
The List
Last Update: 05/26/04
Carter Ard - 1st Ann Colby - 4th Kay Dennis, Pat Danielson - canceled, Phyllis Nelson , Cindy Rodgers & K. Stout - 1st Donna Deslauriers - 6th Pat Dietch - 2nd Rich Federici - 6th
April Ferguson - canceled Mary Garland & Rob Kruys - 3rd - Stan & Teri Golden - 4th Mary Graybill - 1st Ros Haddon - 4th Marc & Cherie Harbison - 3rd John Harkins - 5th Del Hiestand & son - 1st Jenifer Huey - 3rd Eric & Sharon Hurley - 6th Christina Knauss - 2nd Vincent Kong & Debbie Ho - 4th Art & Halina Long - 1st - Stephanie McCulloch - 4th Nancy Michaelsen - 2nd Don & Jayne [Langan] Miller - 4th Dennis, Eileen, Scott & Rachel Morgan - 2nd - Kate Penman - 4th Patrick Quinn - 3rd Cecelia Scott - 4th Ariel Segal - 2nd Diana Strickland - 5th Phil & Karen Stangler - 2nd
Joe & Belinda Starnes - 2nd - canceled Kathie, Mary, Karen & Jo Sweetser collectively, The Sweetser 4! - 5th Mark, Kathy, Nathan, & David Whitney - 4th Diane Williams - 1st Fitz & Cindy Williams - 2nd Michael Williams and Andres, An-Mei, Kristen & Thomas Kessler -1st Theresa & Claude - canceled - Williams - 3rd Karen Williamson - 4th - canceled - uncanceled! Dale Wasson - 2nd Patrick & Tristan Wilson - 1st - Mark & Sarah Zentner - 4th

- Joanne Shenandoah, Tuesday only [Spirits on the River]

I never had one.. the nurse looked puzzled and asked the doctor.. the doctor said.. he doesnt need it... Glad he s feeling great... and "back to normal with some limitation"
Thanks to everyone for your prayers, and support
Sharon

Posted - June 04 2004 : 6:26:57 PM To our friends, We wish that we were able to join you all this year, but alas, it just isn't in the cards. It would have been wonderful see everyone: Rich, Kate, Donna, Diana, Eric, Sharon, The Sweetsers, etc. (argh! too many to name and I apologize for those I haven't mentioned) and to meet new friends, of course - those we haven't met in person, but know via the board. Our thoughts will be with you all! Have a safe trip, a safe Gathering, a wonderful experience, and make memories of a lifetime for all of us! We hope to see plenty of photos!
as always, caitlin, jeff and the little critters

Posted - June 04 2004 : 5:00:46 PM Hey Ya'uns, Yep its me and I am having a hard time understanding how to get thru this message board. haha. I hope all of you are doing great. I see a lot of new names that I have to put faces with. I am looking forward to meeting them. Due to my class scheduling, Sharon and I will not be at all events, however, we will be at as many as possible. As Sharon may have already told you, I am back in the saddle again. I am doing all that the Dr. told me not to do. And loving it I might add. I think the Dr. is funny. Thinking he can stop me. HA!! I do get sore from time to time and I think the drugs did me in a bit. I cant remember as well I use to. Sharon says thats a man thing and I had that problem all along. But I notice it more now. I still have problem tying my shoes or getting up out of the floor. But once I am up, look out!! I am looking forward to see all of you. Two weeks. WOW that's a phrase that us carpenters use when estimating how long a job will take. haha. Oh BTW Sharon and I will most likely be on the bike. Gas prices you know. Yes girls I'll take you for a ride.... Ya'll take care gettin here. and we see ya'uns then. ILY is 143 Kate. I think that was what you were gettin at, Right? See ya'uns 143 |

Posted - June 04 2004 : 2:16:31 PM 'Lo Sharon - Glad to hear that Eric is "running" about... Well at least with style and on a motorcycle to boot.
Following Karen's lead (great idea BTW), I too will bring a copy of Russell Mean's book for him to sign.
Been busy recently but look forward to seeing everybody again. |

Posted - June 03 2004 : 11:27:45 AM Hellooo Ros, Nice to hear from you. You say Russel and Pearl are looking forward to coming. I wonder if they'll do any trips with us? Or just the movie and the raffle? It would be cool if they did... Either way, I'm looking forward to it.
And hellooo to Sharon! Great to hear from you too! I'm glad you and Eric will be coming. No stunt fights this year? I wonder if you'll be doing your fancy moves in the rapids at the river? Sounds like Eric is getting back to normal. He must have worked hard at his therapy. I have a girlfriend that just had back surgery. I see how hard it is to recover. Takes a long time to heal. I hope you two take it easy so you'll make it to the gathering for sure. See you soon! Donna |

Posted - June 02 2004 : 6:57:15 PM Hey Ros, Nicole might come to Asheville for a day, so I will let her know when you will be there. You know how fond she is of you and has always remembered how nice you were to her in Tahlequah. I can't wait to see you again too!!!

Posted - June 02 2004 : 11:40:13 AM Hey Ros, what Jayne said! Who knew when I sent my book to you to have Russell sign it that I would some day have the chance to meet him my own self? Maybe I'll just bring it and ask him to sign it again! Sharon, it's so good to hear from you and hear that you and Eric are doing well. I'm so looking forward to seeing everyone again. Kate, due to bum knees, I may be joining you all at the pool to heft a few margaritas. Nothing wrong with my arms either! Can't believe that it won't be long now.

Posted - June 01 2004 : 9:30:55 PM I am sorry for not keeping you all posted.. Eric s continuing to improve... Getting off medications was a struggle for him.. but he made it.. The doctor said Eric s his poster child.. using Eric as an example to other patients. Erics now driving motorcycle, and all the crazy stuff! We will see you Sunday half day (Breakfast), Monday all day, Wednesday for whitewater rafting, and all day Friday..
See u all then |

Posted - May 31 2004 : 8:21:03 PM Can't believe it is just a few weeks away. Can't wait to see you all again. Russell and Pearl are excited about coming too. We'll be at Sun Dance in South Dakota right before we head to the Mohican Hills, so speaking for myself, I will be very mellow (if you believe that, well.......) See ya soon, Ros |

Well, Kate, m'friend, since I'm signed up for everything ALONG WITH you I will do my best to help you through all the trekking and rafting and marching I personally can handle!!! My only physical consideration is a game left ankle left over a bad sprain last fall, but so far it's been holding up okay. I'll have ace bandages and etc. along in case it starts going South...but rest assured SHOULD it give me any problems and SHOULD ye have need of leaving off some of the activities, I'll be right there hoisting liquid refreshments with ye! After all, there's NOTHING wrong with either of my arms...
can't wait to see any and all of you regardless of physical condition!!!

Like I told someone else, you can always just hitch a ride in a raft and not do any paddling. The water levels should be way up this year - in comparison to 2002. Don't think Ducks will be necessary! Think about that. I'll paddle overtime for you!
I'll consider that. |

Seems only fair!!
So... *sigh*... better put me down for walking and rafting...*sigh*...
After all, it's been A COUPLE O' YEARS since I used my 'Misty Mate' and 'Glammy Shammy'!!!! They were THE MOST WONDERFUL gifts ffrom my SWEET friend, Di - I have to justify her generousity, don't I?????!!!! OKAY - NOW I MEAN B-U-S-I-N-E-S-S!!!!!!! *digging out 'trekking' boots*
Hey, if Cora can do it, *I* can do it!!! Harrrummmph!!

Posted - May 30 2004 : 09:23:09 AM Oh yeah ... YOU were the "somebody else"!
You think you can lift those Daquiris????? Don't work TOO hard! |
Kate |
Posted - May 30 2004 : 09:15:49 AM Well Rich,
You know, because of my recent surgery, I might not manage to do the Nolichucky... And, of course, all that trekking in my 'weakened state' could do lots of damage, which puts the climb up to Table Rock, the Death March and Linville Gorge out the window. OH - and the CRP hike... what that could do to newly joined - and atrophied muscles is unbelieveable!!! I'm not sure that my Consultant and P.S will be happy for me to undertake these various activities!! In fact, I'm SURE they'd be ABSOLUTELY AGIN' THEM ALL!!!!!!!!
Oh, well... *sigh*... it looks more and more as if I'm destined to sit by the Geneva pool and sip Daquiri's with little umbrella's... *sigh*...
MAAAANNNN, 'GATHERINGS' ARE HARD WORK!!!

Posted - May 30 2004 : 08:49:56 AM Rich...Nolichucky is "iffy" for me. Got to talk to the doctor about my shoulder. If he recommends I not do it, my space is for sale. Should know something in a week or so. |

Posted - May 30 2004 : 08:32:19 AM Three weeks from right now we'll be assembling at Chimney Rock Park! THREE WEEKS! Here's hoping the weather is better. A most dreary morning right now.
Don't think Russell's coming? Russell Means' Upcoming Appearances
Down to basics ... here's who is coming - definitely - and when they'll be here. If you spot an error, please do let me know!
Paid Gatherers as of May 30, 2004 June 11, 2004
Carter Ard - Sunday & Monday [I think!] Ann Colby - All week, but skipping Biltmore to make arrangements for the Shenandoah concert that night Kay Dennis - All week, skipping Nolichucky Donna Deslauriers - All week Pat Dietch - All week, skipping Nolichucky Rich Federici - All week [I hope! ] Stan & Teri Golden - All week, skipping Biltmore/Spirits
Mary Graybill - Tuesday - Saturday - canceled Ros Haddon - Thursday - Saturday Marc & Cherie Harbison - All week, skipping Spirits John Harkins - All week Del & Del Jr. Heistand - Saturday - Friday, skipping Nolichucky & Cherokee Jenifer Huey - Sunday only Christina Knauss - All week Vincent Kong & Debbie Ho - Sunday - Friday, skipping Spirits Don & Jayne Miller - All week, skipping Biltmore Stephanie McCulloch - All week, skipping Biltmore Nancy Michaelson - All week Phyllis Nelson - Monday - Saturday, skipping Spirits & Nolichucky Kate Penman - All week Patrick Quinn - All week Cindy Rodgers - All week, skipping Nolichucky Cecelia Scott - Wednesday - Saturday Ariel Segal - Sunday - Thursday Phil & Karen Stangler - All week, skipping Nolichucky Kim Stout - Monday - Thursday, skipping Spirits & Nolichucky Diana Strickland - Wednesday - Saturday Karen, Kathie, Mary, & Jo Sweetser - All week, skipping Nolichucky Dale Jr., Dale Sr., & Elizabeth Wasson and Erik Halthen - Sunday, Friday, and Saturday Mark, Kathy, Nathan, & David Whitney - All week, skipping Biltmore Diane Williams - Tuesday only Fitz & Cindy Williams - Tuesday night, Friday & Saturday Michael Williams, Kristen, Andres, An-Mei, & Thomas Kessler - Wednesday - Saturday Theresa Williams - All week Karen Williamson - All week, skipping Biltmore Mark & Sarah Zentner - Sunday - Friday, skipping Spirits & Cherokee
Man, a veritable Williams Clan here ... The Williams Chronicles anyone? So, that's who is currently paid - 53 52 56 total, I think.
Plus, we can add:
Tim & Dianne Cordell [and another person, I think?] - Thursday - Saturday Eric & Sharon Hurley - Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday & Saturday Russell & Pearl Means - Thursday - Saturday
That, if correct, ups us to 60 59 63.
I have no idea who among all these folks will be at The Elk Hunt [Sunday afternoon], do all of Linville Gorge, including the Sunrise [Monday - all day], and Dupont Forest [Friday] as these are all free & there was no need to reserve a space. Above info covers the paid events only.
Any of you who would like to belatedly sign-up for an event you had previously planned to skip, please do so ASAP!! Even have a few [very few] Joanne Shenandoah tickets set aside at the moment, just in case.
Of course, by now, you've all sent your Spirits on the River dinner choices on to pop_profile |
