Snurgerblatt!

Okay, before anyone gets their feelings hurt...yes...YES, we had a mini-meet (turns her head in shame)! I feel like I cheated on someone! :-)

Actually, it wasn't even all that. Basically, the t-shirts are here so a few folks stopped by to pick theirs up. The Elba Onions and the G Team grabbed theirs early on, but the Quinn kids brought a few friends later in the day that hadn't stamped into the HH hostel with the new stamp (and I hadn't the heart to keep another woman's children in the cold with no place to sit). Plus, there were new HH's that I hadn't stamped into yet and I needed to get my book in order after the trip to Florida...

So, they came and talked and stamped in and talked and passed around PLBs they had with us and talked some MORE and the next thing we knew, 3 hours had passed and we'd just had an impromptu mini-meet. I grabbed some leftover Speedy Cut in the shape of a kinda weird looking Rhode Island and we all put a little carved something onto it and voila!...event stamp. Sweet Heart came up with the name as we were all trying to craft something clever ("Just call it something made up like snurgerblatt or something!") and we couldn't stop laughing about how silly the word sounded (and how to correctly spell it!), so that made it official.

All in all, not a bad way to break up a cold rainy weekend. I would never have planned it ('cause that takes work and effort and cleaning and FOOD), but as a spur of the moment thing, I'm all for it! :-)
