: : Thanks for sharing about the Gathering, Jo! * still laughing about the bunks* I am looking SO forward to going. Somebody mentioned the bonfire in an earlier post, and I thought it all sounded so neat. I am still AMAZED that so many nice people managed to find each other and have such a good time...being perfect strangers in the beginning. I met Jayne (from this board) last week for lunch, for example. I felt like I'd run in to a good friend I hadn't seen in years. We both talked non-stop for more than an hour while I scarfed my brouchetta and she nibbled her chicken salad. Jayne had so many fun things to share. I have no trouble believing the Gathering will be just as rewarding! Thanks again, Rich and Elaine!!... and EVERYBODY who makes this board such a nice place!

: What you say here, Dana, is VERY true! All these heretofore faceless names come together and it really is a remarkably comfortable experience! All in all, everyone comes across on this Board pretty much as they are in "real-life," and so when meeting face-to-face at The Gatherings it's all very easy. Plus, as Jo can attest to, it's pretty much go, go, go ... not too much time to sit & quarrel! :) Sarah M., who makes a living traveling, often times stops in to visit with Mohicanlanders here & abroad ... It always seems to work out for her!

: I think everyone who attends a Gathering comes away with something positive! It surely must be that everyone approaches the event, the first time, with some trepidation ... I think those fears are quickly laid aside one we are Gathered!

Funny thing...I've been to the Gathering pages so many times, I can almost name everyone in this picture. Speaking of "Lodgings" and "Connections", I discovered a "new to me" page on this site. The GATHERERS' PHOTO GALLERY page has two articles about the bunkhouse. Funny! If you want to know what Chimney Rock reeeeealy looks like, check out this page.
