It looks like there is enough interest to get our Texas G2G back on vaccinated style! I figure I will put this out early to give people some time to marinate the idea.
With the exception of last year, this has been an annual events for several years. For those unfamiliar with our G2G’s, it is a 3 day event. We have a meet and greet at our home on Friday evening with a lot of food, drinks, and laughter. Saturday we will go on some sort of excursion. In the past we have done the fair, a party boat, a train ride, and the botanical gardens. On Sunday we have a large brunch before everyone heads out their separate ways. It’s an amazing time. Being in a group of people that understand you like no one else is priceless. HT and I have made some amazing friends along the way through these G2G’s. I encourage you to try one if you have never been to one. 
We are looking at the weekend of October 22nd through the 24th.
We are huge Halloween fans and have the house decorated to the nines!
The location is North Texas. DFW airport for those interested in flying in. I will give hotel info via pm at a later time. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
We are fully vaccinated here.
I am looking forward to seeing many of my old friends and hope we can make some new ones too.

I'll definitely be there. 😊
No one changes unless they want to. Not if you beg them. Not if you shame them. Not if you use reason, emotion, or tough love. There is only one thing that makes someone change: their own realization that they need to.

I've got two thumbs and two vaccine shots, and I'm ready to party.

Sweet! Glad to see our regular peeps are in!
sisoon, if you can make it work that would be amazing! I know both HT and I would love to meet you in person.

I live in PA, so I won't be there. 
Just chiming in to "wave" to punky! I haven't "seen" her around in a long time.

No excuse! We live in PA and went to the last one.😀
But since there are two of us... who's interested in a mid-Atlantic GTG?

It has been brought to my attention that there will be a major NASCAR event the weekend of the 15th. This makes getting hotel rooms difficult and very expensive.
We will change the date to October 22nd-24th.
Hope this works for y’all!
I will change the date in the original post so we don’t have confusion.

Yes, g2g’s are open to all members.

Soooooooooo, any chance a carload of us could drive by a certain someone’s den of bliss and honk horns, wave banners and otherwise create mayhem?
I’d so love to attend but I’m not sure I can get that close to where Rat Bastard lives (Frisco) and not be an emotional wreck. But I really want to meet you and I really would love to have some fun. Can’t honestly remember the last time I had fun.

You would be a good 30 minutes from Frisco, more during traffic (not sure if that helps or hurts).
You would also be surrounded by support. Obviously you have to do what is most comfortable for you.
I can almost assuredly guarantee you will have fun!
