WELCOME TO SMOKEY LONESOME'S PIGROAST 2010
Weekend of July 31, 2010
Ripley , New York
Hi folks! Here's the scoop on the weekend picnic at my place in July. This will be the Thirteenth summer we have had a chat meet on the farm. This is a great way to get together, meet the people you have been chatting with and generally let your hair down, kick back and have a good time for a couple of days. Let's make this year the best one yet! ........grin........ Come early

"
well.... my tractor's sexy...."
Where: Smokey's farm and playground (grin), Welch Hill Road , Ripley July 31, however there's lots of space, so if anyone wants to come early or stay late, they are welcome.
Who's invited: Old Lycos, Life and Coping, 40's chatters. DewDads Web chatters. Facebook friends, Spouses and/or significant others are also welcome. (preferably one or the other ..............hmmmmmmmm)
This is a family event, so bring along your varmits or rugrats...... )
Activities: In the past we have kept the weekend informal (in other words, unorganized ...lol...) although there are lots of activities available including horseback riding, winery tours, flea markets, etc. Also if anyone has volleyball or badmitten sets, bring them along. (uh.... supersoakers are a highly recommended ..... hehehehehe ........) We are looking into the possibility of a hayride. If you have other ideas, please let us know.
Meals: The pig roast will be served on Saturday afternoon. Other meals are strictly informal. In the past, everyone kicked in to make meals onsite or we all went to local restaurants. If you are travelling large distances, don't worry about packing food as there are local stores nearby.
Accommodations: This is a totally rustic site, so if you plan to stay at the campgrounds, bring your own sleeping accommodations (ie: tent, camper, etc.) or if you aren't into camping, there are motels locally. Restroom facilities are provided .............sorta ......... (it's a one-holer)
