: : : Hi Everyone!
: : : I just HAD to post one quick message here today - my LAST for, oh... three weeks and a bit! Why the last? Because TODAY (well, it's a new day in Britain!) I start my journey of enlightenment! Today I begin my journey, where I will 'Gather' in Florida with MMMM (well, no rule says TWO can't 'Gather'!!) until it's time to 'Gather' in the Colonies with all of YOU!!
: : : To use the PC Great Mohicanland parlance 'Wooooooooohoooooooooooo!!'
: : : And I HAVE TO take this opportunity to:
: : : 1) just remind you that there will be a chance to help that sweet little mascot of ours, Ariel, and her folks. Come to the Gathering, and PLEASE support Ariel's Cabin by (bringing a donation WOULD be good!) browsing in our wee Shoppe and - pick up something nice for the folks back home!!
: : : 2) Also take the chance to help Ariel by buying extra tickets for those ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS door prizes, at the Potluck Supper!!! (Just DON'T win the Cherokee choker, the miniature carved pipe and medicine bag, the hand carved ceremonial pipe, the turquoise earrings and pendant, the special wampum choker, the amythest earrings and a few other things - they're MINE!!!)
: : : 3) finally, to everyone in Mohicanland who can't make this year's Great Mohican Gathering - I'm TRULY SORRY!!! I'll miss you all!! To all who WILL be there - I'm SOOOO looking forward to meeting you!!!
: : : Okay, time to iron, pack, write notes for the cat sitter, etc. Today I start the Great Trek West!!! Wooooooohoooooo!!!
: : : See you in the Colonies!
: : : Love,
: : : Kate.

: : Hey! It's only SUNDAY! Or maybe MONDAY in your part of the world...you ARE arriving here on TUESDAY, right? Are ya tryin' to confuse me? I don't need your help, ya know! I can get pretty confused all by myself! Well...if I don't hear differently from you, I'll be at the airport TUESDAY night, with bells on! And a bit more, of course, but the bells will be prominent!
: : *goes off mumbling to self* "Sure hope she's not standing there waiting for me MONDAY night...but Tuesday's what I wrote down, I'm sure of it. Well, pretty sure. Well, at least I THINK it was Tuesday. Good Golly, Olly! Where's my calendar??"
: My Dear Katie,
: You DO have the safest and most pleasurable trip possible, whichever day you're arriving! Can't wait to see you again and hearing your headed west just gets me all in a tither again!!!!
: It won't be long, back to my flag sewing.....
: Safe Journey,
: Di
