Virginia Convention!

Now With Pics!

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Virginia Convention!

Post by JesusIsAlive »

So, I'm going to be out in Virginia for College for a Weekend at Liberty. I know of *counts on hand* at least 5 other ToOers besides myself that I will be seeing there and 3 others who are considering it. I was just wondering if anyone else wanted to meet up with everyone sometime over the weekend of October 9th-12th. I'll be leaving early Sunday morning (the 12th), so it'd be good if Friday or Saturday would work out. But, I just thought I'd lay out the idea on the table and see if anyone is interested. \:D/

*looks at airfare and bank account*

You know, I could probably swing it, but I think that might be unwise -_-;

I'll second that ^_^

Come to think of it, I'm tentatively planning on chilling in Duluth MN that Saturday, so now I definitely can't make it.

Sounds like you'll have fun! :)

I actually just realized that that's the weekend my family will be in Michigan to visit my brother...so I won't even be able to experience the awesomeness of being in the same state as JIA. :( Ah well. Just wave northward at our house...
The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance.

-cries at the thought of not seeing Laura Ingalls or Dr. Watson-
(So close, yet so far away. :( )

I'm toying - and praying - about this meet-up. I've got possible transportation, a free friend, and an open weekend, but it's up to my parents.

So. \:D/

It's too bad it isn't the weekend after, when I'll be on my fall break :(

But still... I am tempted :-

Eh, four and a half hours away...I'll pass. :)

I did consider it for about two minutes, though.

I'd love to come, it's only a few hours away.

But I must decline.

I have a good friend at Liberty who was actually a ToOer for a little while (thelovelyrose). I'll make her go to the convention for me! :D

When we go on our trip, we'll sideswipe a tractor-trailer and cause a huge wreck and traffic jam on I-81 so no one will be able to get into the state! \:D/
