OT: FOR ALL, Trip Schedule and Request

O

OKC Dave 21 years ago

I thought I would let ya'll know where I am going. tentatively, for now for shows for the schedule I have as of TODAY!!

These trips do not include those I MAY make to Six Flags parks as those this year are worse than ever because of boss who runs around not thinking of pre planning and priorities. Like today for example he thought that it would be a good time to go to San Antonio and Houston. He tells me about it, and when he wants me to go, BEFORE he called them to see if it would be ok with them. DOH!! Guess what, people need time to make plans to have workers there or get stuff together for pickup or places cleaned out for drop offs!

So I did not have to leave tonite, gave me time to drool over my recent acquirements and TRY to figure out where I am going to put it!!!! I AM STILL in Heaven!! But am leaving tomorrow nite now. Gripes me as now have to work Sat unloading the trailer. Can not get time in to even get my new Dell going the way I want or the DSL to go with it!! Hey I have my priorities - SCRAP stuff and organization!! (oh and yakking in here with ya'll!)

OK heres the scoop - show date of 30 April in Orlando. Show date of 21 May in Hollywood, CA. I know I have to be there on 20th. and last one as of now, 22 Aug in Hotlanta!

For shows I usaully have a bit of time to get there. WHEN it comes to getting home though, that is another story! I want to get home and unless I need to get off the clock for log book hours I do not like to stop on the way home. When I go I usaully know my route as I plan it out but coming home may vary it to say TRY and catch someone or something - like a LSS!

So that is where I have a request from ya'll. There are several I still wnat to meet, OF COURSE!! and know several want to try and meet me. So if this is the case, please email me privately and we can exchange at least numbers. Then if the good Lord allows and time and routes can intertwine, who knows, you may be the LUCKY recipient of something great

- LIKE a stack of paper - LOL!

Others that I have met in the past, please email me too as I just got this new cell phone a month agao nd have no idea where my treasured list of numbers went.

So you are now up to date and I am still in Heaven AND grumbling!

(making an amends to vow off ANY paper buying for rest of year!)

Hello this is for OKC Dave! I am fairly new to this group, and don't post very often, but I just wanted to chime in here for a moment. I have never met a MAN that does scrapbooking! That is so cool! And how in the world do you get time to actually get some pages done, with all your traveling? What is your work, besides driving the truck?I noticed you mentioned shows? I am just curious! I like to buy supplies and paper too....so from reading this board..that makes me a paper floozy too, right? :-) I feel sorry for the Michaels cashiers this week..paper is on sale! They dread seeing me come in! Linda Curley

Yea I know, it is in Valencia. I was out there two years ago and so this year the park should get a new set. A lot of times if there is nothing for me to take or bring back on a trip we will ship the stuff with another company :(

(still telling Me that I will not buy any more paper this year!)

I have ALWAYS loved taking pictures. The 20 years I was in the Army, I always had a camera with me. i have also always been a obsessive, err compulsive organizer. So my pix were in albums, mostly those horrid terrible magnetic ones! I did have one I made with construction paper that was about 12' thick for field experience pix in it.

Finally about three years ago now my neice and sister via CM persuaded me to take those terrible albums apart an do something more creative and better looking. I was then thoroughly convinced in order to sb properly I had to have all neccessary materials on hand!!! LOL! instant Floozy was born nad my neice was blown away when i would go sopping nad she would get a ton of stuff from me too.

I find time during the company's down time, normally December and Jan and from June thru Sep. Unless we have shows scheduled like this year. I more or less drive for Six Flags parks, more so the company that does the entertainment venues for the parks. The owner of my company also does his own thing. He is a master illusionist and we do corporate gigs. I love it!! Until two years ago now this year we had our own theater in Branson and every couple years run a show in Vegas.

Anyhow that is it i think and I have seen your posts. I am rather gifted in that I remember details and enjoy seeing and reading everyone's work.

(telling ME that I will not buy any more paper this year!)

I'm talking the one outside of San Francisco. It's fairly new in the Six Flaggs family. It use to be Marine World Africa USA. If you come this way I'll steer you away from the paper and toward the negative/slide frames.

Speaking of men scrapbooking... My husband the other night had the digital camera in his Referee bag. I couldn't find it any where. He pulls it out. I asked him what he was taking pictures of. He said he didn't have any of him refereeing. So, I had to tease him with a few referee poses. I asked him what was he going to do with referee pictures... he says while quickly walking away from "I DON'T KNOW maybe I want to scrapbook them!" I could tell he was embarrassed I made him fess up, but that was the furthest from anything I thought he was going to say. I thought framing them at the most. So, I may have a scrapbooking husband soon or I maybe asked to scrapbook for him. I'm sure the latter though.
