My big trip to Montreal

[technodoll]

oh sure we can have another meetup!! why not?

(mini-threadjack: dakotah is fine now, still has a lump on his neck where the mastiff bit him but the massive black bruise from inside bleeding is almost gone now after 5 days and the puncture in his lip has sealed up and is not swelled anymore - he heals super-fast thanks to a great immune system. my poor baby... if his pitbull buddy hadn't ran to the rescue and wrenched that dog off him, we'd have been at the emergency vet for sure :sad: )

for the threadjack, back to the meetup!

[Puppyluv]

Wait, is there a set date and time yet? Whenever it is, I hope Layla and I can make it.

[Prin]

Sunday the 20th, I think. No time yet...

[erykah1310]

Bad news.:sad:

I can't make it on my own trip.:sad: Guy and myself sat down a little while ago and crunched some numbers to see if this was at all feasable and... its not:sad: especially right now with Bailey potentially running us up a couple hundred dollars in tests and then GOD only knows how much more for treatment ( in the event it is treatable)

Anyways, I may try to still get down there, but as it stands right this second, Kita and me are out. Im glad that it has become a big to do though.

Perhaps I will join in on the fall meet up

Or better yet, if I get the over $6000 work owes me for travel expenses this week... I can go, but odds of that are unlikely.

[Prin]

But you're the one who started all this! :sad: Let's just send for getting your expenses paid asap then.

[technodoll]

awe, erykah :sad: i'll post beanie videos for you, then.... still hoping for a miracle and that you make it!

Sounds good to me

Sorry about everything that is happening preventing you from making this one though

[Stacer]

That really sucks Erykah, if it wasn't for you putting the idea in my head, I wouldn't be going. Maybe something will happen in the next week so that you can make it. Poor B.

[erykah1310]

I technically "could" go down still, but priorities you know
That and what if something happened with him while I was gone, Icould never let myself live it down.
Right now, im squeezing every penny just to be sure the funds will be there for him if need be.

I WILL EXPECT many many many pictures, videos and you name it's.

[Stacer]

I (as well as all the other members too I'm sure) would do the same thing if they were in your shoes. Furry family comes first.

[catsnatcher-CDN]

Hey everyone!

What's happening here? Can I come? When? Where?

[Stacer]

Yup, we're meeting at Mont Royal Parc, but we haven't really established if it will be saturday or sunday.

[Prin]

I think we established that everybody coming could make it Sunday... We just haven't established where on the mountain and what time...

[Stacer]

If it's Sunday, then the earlier the better for us since we booked our room for friday and saturday nights and will leave Montreal sometime in the late afternoon on Sunday.

[Rottielover]

sorry we will not be making it. I can not drive down there. Too paranoid.
Funny I can drive to windsor, but can not drive into town

[catsnatcher-CDN]

I spend most of my time driving all day in and around mtl, laval, west island, eastern townships and new york and from my experience, drivers in montreal respect the laws on the road more than anywhere else.

So mount royal where? On the mountain side or the baseball side? Near the tam-tam statue What time?

[technodoll]

actually i think the parc jeanne-mance would be a good place... easy to park around there, easy to find and get to (taxis can drive there quickly, too), and lots of big green open spaces?

or are we really wanting the top of the mountain, near beaver lake?

[Prin]

I thought about near beaver lake.. There's lotsa parking there... Never been to Jeanne Mance park..

[Prin]

You know what? I've never been to the tam tams...

[LynLyn]

oh boy! I'm never gonna be able to find you guys! it'll be an adventure for me and Bowser!

aww poor erykah! it's ok we understand, Bailey comes first, he does in our hearts too, I'll bring a camera and we'll send vids and pics and you'll be so bombarded it'll be as if you were here! and the fall meeting will happen too! we'll want to see Bailey when the baby is all better (Still have my fingers crossed for a full recovery)
