TC4

“Dub: kewlness. I wondered whose it was. You have a good eye, and the fall colour looked GREAT didn't it?”

“Actually, I adjusted the color of that photo slightly ;-) If you guys want me to scan it again at a higher res I can, just lemm know. I think it looks good as is.”

“Awe crap, I thought I asked your permission to use it. Sorry Dub I'm usually anal about securing permissions but things have been slipping my mind lately.

I'll drop a "photo by:" credit on it this weekend.

I twisted the color a bit more.”

“ YAY – Thank you Richard Colberg!

YAY – Thank you Jeb!”

“need to get those URLs updated”

“ya i know.. but hey.. its a start.”

“A photo credit...cool! I would have okayed it if you'd have emailed me so no harm done. I was just surprised to see it there.

I'll add a few links to my website for TC4 next weekend when I get home...for some reason Holliday Inn blocks FTP from all of their hotels. It was like that in Atlanta and it's like that in CT.”

“FTP is blocked because of security and abuse issues.

Cool, you want that credit as Dub or a real name? Just email me how you want it to appear.”

“I emailed about 20 some odd hiking, biking, and running clubs to add the festival events to their calendar. West Virginia Trails Coalition added to their calendar. The Chattanooga Track Club added it to their non-ctc events among several other clubs that added it to their website calendars.
TN Home and Farm added it to their website calendar and are considering doing a story on the festival next spring if it is an annual event.
TTA added it to their website calendar.
I am trying to think of who else?”

“Oh, Valerie from the Core Group of Cgap got it in the Fall Tri-State brochure that sits at rest stops.

Barb also came to Knoxville and put out entry forms at the outfitters here..

Prosecuter was the first person to turn in the entry form for TC4. Just a reminder - if plan to enter, you need to turn in an entry form. Hee hee!”

“Isn't this how woodstock got started?...lotsa word of mouth and "Volunteer" advertising...hmmmm I'm gonna drag out the old tye-dye T-shirts and the pictures back when I had hair, and pack in (Totally self contained mind you), to watch this blow up...lol. Then I can say, in my Older Age..."I was THERE man..."”

“smokygirl, even though I am not coming to the event I just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work. I know it will be a good event with you running it.”

“crap.. i didnt' do it right.. here

http://www.americanhiking.org/news/calendar.html”

“Ditto what Ewker said..anyone who takes on a job like this and works as hard as you have deserves Kudos... and Lest what I said above be taken as a ding, I am funnin' here...I will attend TC4, and it will be a blast I am sure!”

“Good job smokeygirl, I will send in a form.”

“Thanks SuperTroll and Chili! ;D”

“... and Ewker! ;D”

“"...very fortunate to have creative folks like Humanpackmule to do kick-butt web sites and Opie to rake up sponsors, and of course, Towndawg to create it in the first place!"”

“Thanks for all you've done. Same here on attendance. I'll be doing the daddy thing at DisneyWorld. Can't wait to hear all about this when I get back.”

“Chris, I'm working some crazy hours now with my new job...thus my abscense from TT. I have some questions and I'll get back to you on Sunday probably.

Tina, send me a PDF of the fliers I can pass out to my favorite gear stores.”

“Dub, if you haven't been around due to work then WTF has minister creek been posting around here for?”

“Minster Creek is back?”

“What threads is he posting on? I was at training in CT for two weeks with limited internet access and I've been busy since I've gotten back so I haven't been on much. Not used to 52/hr work weeks yet.”

“well when you hit 70 hr weeks then you should complain dub...i havent worked less than 50 hr/wk since i was 18...”

“Here's a glass of water... Hold your nose and drink it from the opposite side and your hiccups will be cured! :-)”

“Or walk outside your place in the morning and say "OMG, there's an alligator at my feet!!"

(Kudos to Stovestomper for that idea, BTW) :-)”

“Is the registration date deadline the 20th or the 30th? I've seen both?”

“Just send it in a reasonable time so we can have a head count before October 15th. The deadline was changed a few times...”

“Can I bring Jeanne?”

“My attendance is in doubt due to a new job.”
