    Among my other hobbies, I frequent a horsey board, and last week this poor little creature stumbled into the care of Sunkist Acres in Summerville GA -

    *Warning, unbelievable cruelty*

    Nick-named "Mr American Beau Jingles" this little scrap of hair and fur was four years old.

    OK, I had a wild hair about this... combining a non rev meet up with a good cause.

    Sunkist Acres also runs a thrift shop to raise money, and I was thinking we could set up a date and either meet up in Chattanooga (it's 50 miles from Summerville) or even at a push ATL (160 miles) - the thing is, as non revs we're allowed the standard luggage at no charge - plus our carry ons. What if we had our meet up, and everyone picked up a pair of cases and filled them with stuff to donate to the thrift store? Everything sells there, from cloths to brick a brack, and even if only say 5 people showed up, that's 500 pounds worth of 'stuff'. More if you bring a 'disposable' carry on...

    If there's any interest, we'll pick a date (mid week - the airliners weekend!) and either I'll arange for someone from the rescue to meet us, or possibly rent a car to go...

    Anyone game?

    I think it was in part the location and that we didn't nail down a date.

    SO! I'm going to say how about we aim for early March - surely some ATL folks can hop up to CHA? Or even if we just have to meet up in ATL, I'm game - but someone else can drive! LOL!

    Heck - even just one more person - Surely some good folks can spare a day?

    Heck, I'll even say ATL might be the better option - there's the museum et all for those who just want to drop off their 'Bags' - So, even those who live in ATL, wanna meet up?

    Update!


    Lori would be happy to meet up in CHA, so the call is out there. Second wensady in March for a day? Anyone?
