We are starting a new Chapter for people in Southern Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee. I hope there is a few of you guys out there interested in it.

Oh... how I long for the 'VILLE. I grew up in that area and miss it dearly. My only taste is around Christmas now. I found once you marry an NC woman they don't stray far from the family. don't get me wrong NC is nice, but home is still home!

Thanks,
 
Pretty funny. I got quite a few family that lives close to you in Winston Salem. Heck I agree you should join the group. It's a good neighbor thing.
 
I'm in. Here on the southern coast of Indiana we are so close to Kentucky that you can hear the horses.
 
My wife and i went thru Tennessee for vacation this year. we went thru this town stopped for gas. It was beatiful and clean. She wants to move there. Ya'll have a very nice area over there.
 
Jim next time you get over this way stop in----Heck Country Folks always have a pot of coffee on or a cold glass of tea in the frig.
Looks like we have 5 folks signed up----
 
Country folks - I remember many a day sittin' on the porch in a rocker with an uncle or two, or a neighbor or my granddad and them rocking slowly, occasionally whittling something. Conversations consisted of a word or two, 5 minutes pause, another word or two, another 5 minute pause - waste a whole day to 5 minutes of actual talk and solved the whole world's problems, or at least the local problems! :)

When I get back to the States, I am joining this group! :biggrin:

God has a sense of humor for sure: I grew up (til' I was 18) with my nearest neighbor 2 miles away (3 by road) and ended up in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya/Toyota - Metro areas of 30 million, 20 million and 10 million respectively!
 
I am usually not one for long distance relationships, but Gary extended the offer and I am not one to turn down good southern hospitality. Where's the Bourbon and the Horse's. Any of you guys do the St. James art show. I try to get up there every year for that. One of these days (time permitting) I wouldn't mind trying to Jury into the show.

I did St James two years ago----$1250.00 to set up---$150.00 to park
Did not have a good location and just covered expensives.
 
Holy Cow! It has probably been 10 years or so since my mother stopped doing the show. Can you say inflation! If I remember it was $600 at the time and it really paid to have a premium spot. The foot traffic on the side streets was always bad. Don't they have another show a couple streets down that goes on at the same time?

We where on the end of a side street ---really sucked
 
They used to have another show at the same time until this year. The city went crazy, jacked the prices for a spot, and wouldn't let the local groups have a booth in their yard unless they paid a fee which was crazy high.
