Sitting

(photos courtesy of Amazon.com, search for "lawn chair")

This thought comes a bit late in the day because many of us are already on the road, but having a few lawn chairs to sit on at the picnic would be nice.  There will be a table and benches, but when people stop eating, it's nice to have a movable, more comfortable, chair -- with a back-- to take where you might want to sit. For instance, to watch the soccer game I'm sure will happen.

That is, if someone brings a soccer ball.

I'll see if we have any to bring from the Cities. If you're still at home, and have room for a couple of chairs, could you bring them?  We wouldn't need many. There are lots of us who are still of an age to sit on the ground when they need to.

More Dope from Patty

The Picnic Plans have been finalized, but there is too much to blog. Patty asks that all relevant parties (I suppose that means you) check their email.

Notes about the Picnic at PETS

There is no electricity at Shelter #5 at PETS, so we won't be able to plug in a crockpot or such.

Here is a map (I believe if you click on it, it will automatically download to your computer so you can print it out). If it doesn't work, click here.

We are at Shelter #5 (near the upper left corner of the map).

A concessions stand is not shown on the map, but apparently is located between parking lots 3 and 4 (lower left). One is shown on the map at the Golf Clubhouse (top right).

Bring mosquito repellent and sun screen!

Can anyone who is driving bring a soccer ball?  We could stage our own Wisconsin Cup.
