2012 Virginia Pony Meet - August 18th

[PhyllieBean]

I so wish I could come to this.  I miss all of my VA/ NC people!

Come baaaaaaaack.  It's not too laaaaaaaaate!!  I still haven't made any friends in North Carolina!!!  Lol!

[Elisto]

Very last minute, but it looks like I'm going!

It's all good, Phyllie Bean. A little bit of pony fun is better than no pony fun at all, right? My kids start back next week, so this is the last hurrah before they go next Tuesday.

I so wish I could come to this.  I miss all of my VA/ NC people!

We miss you too! (and holy crap your new av frightens me. No pony should ever make that face! That RD is going to haunt my dreams...)

We've got you down on our list, Elisto, and will do our best to get you a table space. The Lodge lady we are dealing with is so non specific about everything, so we could end up with only the 20 we asked for or all the tables that fit in half the space (which is a lot) and so have extra. We will know for sure Friday evening.

Very last minute, but it looks like I'm going!

Glad to hear you're coming, I might have to hit you up for another quickie drawing!

[Elisto]

haha, sure! I'll bring my art stuff!

Say hi to everyone for me! Have you not seen the videos? (They're not childsafe. )

awww... I wish I could go to this! I'm in Virginia, but nowhere close to this meet!

Will do!

I haven't seen them. Will I be traumatized? Also, I have the déjà vu-y feeling that we've discussed them before.

We do not always have the meet in the same region of Virginia. Previously we've held it in the Charlottesville area, Hampton Roads, and Emporia. Ideally we'd have it in Richmond, which is pretty much central to everyone, but so far this hasn't happened for a variety of reasons. We haven't made any decisions as to where we are having the meet next year, but there is always the chance that it could be closer to you. Unless you live waaaaaay out in the corner of the commonwealth in Bristol.

whoo hooo :-) it's the final countdown!

and it figures, now my kids get the "deadline" of when we are having our wonderful MEET = and want to make a custom.... today

(no really I am laughing = ah the joy of kids ages 4, 6, 8 - with no concept of how time really works when it comes to mommy's job and making customs by the weekend)

I was going to do a custom, I really was. I had a pony with a head off and hair gone, ready to go. I started on it, got a tiny bit done...but it's not gonna happen at this point. I know I can't finish it by Friday.

[Rhaegar]

Can't wait I'll be driving all night to get there, so hopefully I won't be too out of it.

lol that's exactly where I am! I can see Tennessee from where I'm sitting in VA now. Nothing in VA is ever close to me, haha

Actually, there are some pony people in that area and the western part of the the state. We were in contact a couple years ago, but can't remember her name, and she missed out on our meets too because of the distance. If i can think of her screen name I can pm her for you?

There used to be some people from eastern TN hanging around too. I wonder where they all went?

What Princessmaker said, we miss you!

And what videos are we talking about, confused and scared...

Can't wait I'll be driving all night to get there, so hopefully I won't be too out of it.

Holy Mimic on a stick!! Be safe, though driving through the DC area you're probably better off to drive late at night anyway


And I can't believe we've only got a few days left! I'm so ready to wack-a-fakie and toss some bean bags into the super special pony bean bag boards!

Since I know it will be nuts on Saturday and I'll have pony hunting and prize winning on my mind, I just want to take a moment to Thank Princessmaker and KarentheUnicorn in advance for organizing this event, its the highlight of the end of my summer and I know its going to be awesome! Kudos to you both!
