Plant Points: | Yo! Sept. meeting details Tim has kindly offered to host our next meeting at his home on Sun. eve., Sept. 4th at 5:00 PM.
I know the date is different from the scheduled date we agreed to at our last meeting but can we look a gift horse in the mouth?
Tim will get on line soon and give directions to his place.
Among his other tanks, Tim has a terrific emersed growth set-up. Judging from the discussion at our last meeting, this should be of interest to a number of us. We can make this a major topic for the meeting.
I'm looking forward to Earl's update on his new tank.
Some are not satisfied with the group's plan to piggy-back the date of our Sun. meetings to the fish club's Fri. meeting. They suggest that meeting on the first Sun. of every month, instead, would be less confusing. This way we'd know all the way up to 2050 AD and beyond when we'll be getting together. Hum! There's some logic to this. We can discuss it on the 4th.
Everyone should check out Earl's offering of a "Mission Statement" so we can talk about it. Anyone with other suggestions?
Reminder: Our Oct. meeting is to be at Barb's home on Oct. 1st. Barb, how do we get to your place? What time?
Let's talk,
Bob

Plant Points: | 5:00 is the normal meeting time, so let's go with that. To get to my place is actually very easy.
Parkway east to the second Monroeville exit. At the light, go straight(right turn to Elmer's). This puts you on Route 48 South. Follow this through four lights, at this fourth light, Gateway High School will be on your left and Forbes Regional Hospital on your left. Make sure to stay in the right driving lane and go down the big hill. At the end of the hill is a light, with Sheetz on the left. Go straight through the light, cross the bridge, and at the next light(Wall Ave.), turn right. The second street on your left is Irwin St. I live in the first gray townhouse on your left. 637 Irwin. If you start up a small hill, you've gone too far. Phone #412-825-0667

Hey Folks. Raise your hand if you plan to be at the meeting at Tim's place, Barb's place, or both.

I suggest we also plan on a barbecue or something. |

iTrader Positive Rating: 100% Plant Points: | Sorry for the wait. I've been a little busy and I want to get exact mileage before posting directions. It should be on late tonight or early tomorrow.
Thanks,
Tim |

Plant Points: | I'm not sure about the 4th. Holiday weekends are really bad for meetings, as they are usually booked. What about the following Sunday??????????? I really wanted to see his tanks, too.

iTrader Positive Rating: 100% Plant Points: | Barb,
I hate to say it, but it's probably too late to change it now. I think we're going to have to stick to our chosen meeting schedule. We don't want to get back to the schedule juggling thing again, as painful as it may be at first.  |
