Hi Lillie,

Welcome to the thread. I'm sorry you can't make today. However, if you're interested or anyone for that matter, I am a member in a group that meets on Sundays in a downtown Glendale, gay owned, restaurant. They give us their banquet room! The members are mainly professionals or retired professionals.

Wow, what a nice surprise today! 7 of us showed up, from near and far! I really enjoyed it and can't wait to do it again! Let's try to pick a date soon so we can all block it off. I think we agreed to meet in Maricopa, and I would assume we'll spend much of the day/evening there. As FF mentioned at today's lunch, and I agreed, it will likely have to be sometime in December as weekends in October/November are already filling up or are full for some of us. For me personally, I can do Saturday December 11 and that's about it unless plans change that are already in place. Of course, if a different date works for you all and I can't make it, I'll just catch up with you next time

JoSchmooze · 10-17-2010, 06:00 AM

I believe that a good time was had by all....
I got back to Tucson just about 5:30 pm.....
Next time Maricopa - we'll watch Queenie play some poker,
And I'll play a lil blackjack.....
It was a fun afternoon and I enjoyed meeting all y'all....

And it was fun walking down memory lane with Scooter!
Seems we have known each other almost 15 years through
one forum or another!

I'll think of y'all as I am taking off from Sky Harbor this morning!!

Hi Cody,

Sorry you didn't make this meet. Hopefully you can make a future meet. In these hard financial times, we need to help each we don't have to always meet out. We can meet at individuals' place too. I can put up a couple of peeps overnight for peeps travelling for a group meet up. We can meet at my house for afternoon get together as long as its a small group of 10 or less.
Just a thought.

JoSchmooze · 10-19-2010, 03:14 PM

Nov 20 is a good date for me....but I gotta say
that Maricopa is certainly NOT halfway!

Let me know who can come on that Saturday...
And feel free to join me at blackjack.....

dusty · 10-19-2010, 10:21 PM

hey,
just want to say hi and let you know I'm here in Az...

November 20th sounds like a good date for most... if you want to pick a different place to meet, that's fine by me. I was just following what I thought you all had agreed on, or at least it sounded that way to me. I'm marking it on my calendar, just let me know where we're gonna meet

Have a great trip!!!

Speaking of Maricopa.... this is a question for the group -- can we pick a date soon so everyone can block it off? I changed some plans so besides December 11th, I could also do November 20/21.

Let me know!

Jo -- I might join you at the Blackjack tables *grin*

Hi all! Our little group is growing, so I thought I'd throw this out there again for anyone interested in joining... If anyone would like to join the Arizona Butch, Femme, Trans group, please email or PM your email address to me and I'll send you an invite. You can also join by going to Yahoo Groups and searching for AZBFT or go here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AZBFT/

At our last gathering (last week) we discussed a trip to Casa Grande to meet up with our peeps in Tucson. I know December is out of the question, and frankly, January is already filling up for me. So I'd like to propose a Saturday or Sunday in February. Who's interested???

Hi QoS
It's always good to get together. Jan or Feb will work.

JoSchmooze · 12-16-2010, 10:28 PM

I should be around most of February except for one weekend
when my VFW Post takes a bus trip up to Lauglin.
Please keep me posted. Thanks!!
