Northeast US Goat Gathering in 2014 - 26 -29 September
Those of you who do not use Facebook may not have heard, but we have two new GIS builds in New England.
By my count, we will soon have 7 east of the Delaware River:
BLEAT, ME
I AM ZINEA, PTERODACTYLUS, NH
New build, MA
New build, RI
Ned Flanagan's boat, CT
KATHLEEN MARIE, CT
David L's boat (?? ARMY BRAT ??), NJ
(An insistent neuron keeps claiming that there is one more, somewhere in or around New York harbor. But I can't tell if that's just my aging brain mis-firing.)
It seems to me that this situation cries out for a Goat Gathering next summer or the summer after, a great herding up all the Goats in the area.
We'd have to choose somewhere central, like a lake in Massachusetts. With a boat ramp, obviously. There would have to be camping or similarly cheap accommodations nearby. And it would have to be on a mutually convenient weekend.
It is probably already too late to book such a campground for 2013. Or, it will be by the time we all agree on a weekend. So maybe we are shooting for 2014.
I'm willing to do a lot of the legwork, if there is interest. Any takers?
(David, I'm sorry if you've already picked a name for your Goat-to-be and I've forgotten it. ARMY BRAT just seemed appropriate somehow!)
