Wisconsin Homesteaders

[nduetime]

At the last Wisconsin gathering, we offered to host the 2007 get together. we do have water, electric, and a porta potty available for anyone wanting to camp overnight. Any thoughts on when folks are free to do this?


Date : July 21 and 22

In what region of Wisconsin are you located?

[Cabin Fever]

Hey, maybe if you plan this for western Wisconsin some of us Minnesotans might just show up.

[nduetime]

We are in the stateline area, between Beloit and Janesville, a little area outside of Afton. It is really easy access from I-90. Because we are so far south we are offering overnight/weekend camping.

I grew up in Northern Wisc. and can attest to the fact that Minnesota and Wisconsin are indeed one homogeneous state. So, I bet some Minne-sotan's will come.

Wish I were still in the general area. I'd come.

I'll come if I can. I just found out an elderly cousin has cancer, so I may end up helping her out this summer instead. Sounds like fun, that's for sure!

I am just guessing that this would be on a weekend?

Well, I'd love to attend... Just so long as it isn't the same weekend as Muller's Gathering in June.

We'd love to come too, but as Pony mentioned, ours is June 23-24.

We would not dream of having it the same weekend as Cyndi and Paul, shoot, then I would not be able to go to theirs! A weekend is probably best , especially for those traveling and staying overnight.

We would love to meet some like-minded people in Wi!!! We're in NW and could find I-90 in Eau Claire. Let us know when it is! I love to cook for crowds, Can I bring anything?!! (I make a mean potato salad!)

I'm sorry! I did not mean to imply that you would do it the same weekend!

What time would work best for you guys? Are you thinking closer to harvest, or July/August?

We'll need ample time to line up someone to milk and chore the animals if we want to plan on being gone overnight. We should be able to make a day trip out of it, but then it's so hard to leave at night!!

Oh, I hope you are able to get someone to cover chores for you!!!

Pony, you silly thing! I did not even think you meant it that way. I was just saying in a round-about way that I plan on being at Mullers too. Last year we all met a beautiful park and each brought a dish to pass. It worked out really well. If we can decide on a weekend and get an approximate headcount we should be all set to go. How does everybody feel about July 21 or 28?

bump....

[nduetime]

bump... hello anybody out there????

[MullersLaneFarm]

Pony & I were just talking about this. We're waiting to hear a date. We're pretty booked on the weekends this month and June. Graduations, gardens, weddings.

Not when it comes to football.
