porch
I'll leave 4 folding chairs, a box fan and any games (cards, box games) I can dig up on my porch on Saturday morning. Also, though I won't be here for most of the day, anyone in need of a shady spot with an enclosure - i.e., parents with adventurous toddlers - is welcome to use my porch. Have fun! (Becky 3425)
Preparty results
Two days away from the big day. It's important that this be a group effort. Please contribute ideas and thoughts to this process.
Last night a group of us went to Cranky Joe's to discuss the party and here's what we concluded.
Food: It's been agreed that we each bring our own food and that there's enough of us with grills to bring to the street for cooking. It's going to be a hot day so popsicles or the like would be a good idea. Oh yeah...margaritas!
Drink: Again, bring your own and don't forget water. If you have a water cooler or can get one, awesome.
Games: Here are some of the suggestions...cards, ping pong, ladder golf (Mike 3433), baggo (Mike 3436), $1 raffle (maybe maybe coupons/gifts from local businesses???), video games and TV on an extension cord, football toss, whatever you can think of...
The Heat: It's going to be 90-92. I have some industrial pedestal fans and some smaller box fans. We could also break out lawn sprinklers and get naked.
Other: Tables and chairs, get the cars off the street by noon and sweep the street, anyone have a source for fireworks?, our neighbors Abbey and Jury have their art on exhibit from noon to 3 at the Mt Airy Contemporary Artists Space, 25 W. Mt Airy 19119 (5 min drive). Maybe we can go see that.
Please please please comment on anything either here or to me directly.

Next week?
Hey all,
I was talking with Ed, and we thought it would be nice to get together next week at one of our local east falls establishments to talk about our upcoming event. Maybe Tuesday or Thursday at Cranky Joe's, since Mike is working.... or Wednesday if you'd prefer to focus on drinking rather than serving us drinks, Mike. All are welcome.
Also, I am definitely in on the baggo board tournament. I've already started my pre-tossing calisthenics so I can be in prime form come mid-June. Game on!
