Picnic
- Thread starter bobpbx
- Start date
I say we just BBQ at Bob's house. Or mine - there is a beach area with a grill, tables, and playground equipment for kids. But I may be a little out of the way.
It seems to me it should be along or near a river, away from everyone else, with no or little other noises to interfere with our conversations. It is a pine barren cookout is it not?
As for the food, I hope Bob brings that pasta salad again, since besides a burger that is about all I will most likely eat. Even though that Little Debbie hit the spot for desert on our last eating adventure!
Do you plan on having this soon Bob or later in the year? I have two weekends in September I may not be able to make it.
I will bring whatever you tell me to Bob. Except the beer that is

I have to travel next week, so it will be later than the following weekend for sure. I have thought of my house, it not a bad idea. I have also thought of the picnic areas at Lake Absegami or Oswego, and then after we eat and shoot the bull, towards evening we can go to a secluded favorite spot in the pines and have a small fire and hoist a couple for those who want to.
Another possibility I will look into; the picnic area at Bamber. Its really beautiful by the lake.

not to mention it is quiet out in bamber. It's nice to sit up by the dam too and listen to the water, a lot of people might like that.
Are there grills at Weymouth? I don't remember. That'd be a cool spot.
Bamber is also a good idea.

Is a pretty area, but I'm leaning toward being able to swim too in case its smothering hot. I know we can swim at Bamber after the life guards leave (for instance if we made it an early evening picnic.) I also have an above ground pool.
How are we going to go about deciding which day is the best? It seems there is a ton of interest and as with most popular outings here, it's going to be tough to agree on a date that will accomodate everyone's schedule.
Would a poll suffice, Ben/everyone? Or do we just want to say "This is the date"?
BTW - Went swimming the Batsto River yesterday. No bugs and no people. Water was pretty warm too.
Peace,
Justin

The date is settled I see. How about the venue? I'd like to be secluded yet near a body of water cause it's probably going to be rediculously humid (if current weather is any indication).
