Anyone Else In MO, KS, OK, Or AR???

johnnysannie · Jul 9, 2007

I live in the Ozarks, in the far southwest corner of Missouri so I'm close to Oklahoma, Kansas, and Arkansas.

Any other AWer's in the region???

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Jul 9, 2007

I'm down here in good ol' Oklahoma City!

johnnysannie · Jul 9, 2007

Cool! That's just a few hours away. If we can find enough AWers maybe we can find a spot somewhere in between (like Tulsa, maybe?) and meet!!!

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Jul 9, 2007

I talked about setting up an OKC gathering (there are - or were - some Texans who were interested) and could never get a good date.

I'm currently in McAlester (OK). In the middle of September, I'll be in Eureka Springs until the middle of October, though.

johnnysannie · Jul 31, 2007

I recently returned from Eureka Springs - lovely place. I someday hope to spend time at a writer's colony there called Dairy Hollow. On my last trip, I went by it a number of times.

WCDH is wonderful and Jane is great!

I was there for a week in June. I was supposed to have been there all month but I sprained my lower back and had to come home early. I go back September 18 to finish my residency there. Then I'm going to the Ozark Creative Writers' conference from October 11 to 13.

Johnnysannie, if you want, I can send you some info about WCDH.

I live in Eureka Springs, it's a great place. Jen, you should have given me a call while you were here!

JenNipps · Aug 21, 2007

I'll be there again on Sept. 18. In June, I only stayed for a week because I had sprained my lower back while we were traveling to California and back. So I arranged it to where I could go back and finish the residency at the writers' colony and I'll go straight from there to the Inn of the Ozarks for the OCWI conference.

plaidearthworm · Aug 28, 2007

Very neat, I'll see you there!

JenNipps · Sep 14, 2007

Just an FYI to whoever...

I'm leaving here Sunday so we (Grandma, Mom, & I) will be in Eureka Springs Sunday night. We were going to just leave Monday morning and stay one night then go to the Writers' COlony Tuesday and they'd come back home, but they decided that one night wasn't enough and they didn't want to rush the trip. Can't say I blame them.

So Sunday/Monday/Tuesday just in & around town then from Tuesday until October 11 at the Writers' Colony (actually going to be there for a Poetluck) and October 11 - 14 in & around town & at the Ozark Creative Writers conference.

Wow. That makes it sound busier than I feel like it'll be.

Fenika · Dec 23, 2007

Hey, I'm in OK. So is anyone gonna organize a gathering in OKC or Tulsa? I think it would be fun!
C'mon- I'll throw a date out there even- Hows sometime over MLK day weekend?

MissingMyMuse · Aug 18, 2008

I can tell this post hasn't been touched in awhile but I am right on the KS/OK border, SEKansas! Was just going to see if any that have already posted here are still around or if there are new members that live close by that haven't posted!

Bahamutchild, I'm not sure if you still are around here and post but I love how you have your location listed! I'm about 20 minutes away from you in Coffeyville, KS!

Fenika · Aug 18, 2008

I'd forgotten all about this thread. Sorry Muse, I've moved back to Delaware state. Didn't even know there was a Delaware in OK.

Hopefully you can find some peeps around you. Meanwhile there's plenty to see on the forum.

shakeysix · Aug 18, 2008

still here in macksville ks. say missing muse, have you seen the youtube spot about the encounter between the pitt state and fhsu debate coaches? makes one proud to be a kansan!--s6

I live in southwestern Missouri, not so very far from Coffeyville, really.

Woodsie · Aug 18, 2008

SW Mo, here...

MissingMyMuse · Aug 23, 2008

shakeysix, no, I haven't seen that! Will have to go check it out!

It's nice to see people from or close to my area!

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Aug 23, 2008

Okay, peeps... I'm tired o' this 'wishin' and hopin'! We're gonna start small and maybe work our way up.

Heads up, OKC and any of y'all who want to make the trek...

Ol' Boy and I will be at Ray's Cafe
2727 NW 50th St., Oklahoma City, at 11:00AM on
Saturday, August 30th, 2008.

Skelly! Popeyesays! Bring the Significant Other and join us! Ray's is a li'l ol' cafe style place with some great breakfasts, good burgers, etc., very reasonably priced.

Hope any and all of you can make it... if not, Ol' Boy and I will have a good meal all by ourselves, but we'd love to 'meet and greet'!

GRRRRRRRR! I just found this (thanks for the PM OFG). Dagonnit, this Saturday I work until 11a, and the my wife works 11a to 5p. Sucks to be us, huh? But I like this idea. And I LOVE breakfast at small cafe's. 2727 nw 50th...that's like around May, isn't it? Penn?

Anyway...it is but a minor setback. I'm sure we can hammer out some sort of meet-up time. OFG, I'll PM you tomorrow about the deal. I know my wife would love it, cuz we never do anything

I think this is the first time I've ever been in this forum. What an awesome idea. Actually meeting and talking with people. WhatEVER will they think of next?

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Aug 25, 2008

Well, by golly, let's make it dinner then! Since ya'll are the only ones who might be able to make it... how 'bout 6:30? 7:00?

Yes, it's just east of May Avenue on the north side of the street!

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Aug 25, 2008
