Scott, I’m sorry but you know I’ve had personal issues keeping me from checking in as often as I should. Please give me the time and address of the Friday shindig. I just need to know when to leave work, plus I have to check into the hotel first.
...we are waiting for our final details from the owner of the house and then I'll post it here hun.....

How do you like those sexy flannel Avon PJ bottoms, eh?

This should give you an idea of how the XL ladies tee fits - this is the one that cost around 20 bucks I think - better act now MrsSmeej ! They might be starting to sell out as more people are buying them now.
Hi Neesy!!! Nice pic! I see you and I share the same type of ceiling- I did mine in tongue-and-groove pine a few years ago in my living room and kitchen areas. They have such a nice warm patina to them, such a warm glow.

Two more weeks!! Yay!
I must say...shirt shopping this year was quite something. So many choices! I must have been on that site for 30 minutes trying to decide. But then, following the "theme" this year, I went back. (haha!) I got an extra shirt that I'm not going to need so if by chance someone comes up short, I will have a spare. :)
Also, I have an item I could donate to the door prize thing if it's needed. Who do I talk to about that? Jeez...I am so far behind and out of the loop this time around. (and admit I have not read this whole thread):a11::oops:
I keep feeling the need to start packing my suitcase(s). A bit early, yes? Anyone else?

We are going to try to pack light - might be able to get away with just a carry on bag (hopefully). Are you flying in? Sorry - I stayed up way too late last night and now I feel brain-dead :sleeping:

Have you been to Maine before? i.e. were you at the first King Kon in 2013? I'm really looking forward to seeing the sights! :love_heart::thumbs_up:

Door prizes are still welcome! Might be easier to just bring it with you as I'll be on vacation next week and wouldn't want it to get mixed up with fan mail. We'll have time Friday night or Saturday during the day to get it added to the others that have come in. And thank you! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Hi, Neesy! Yes, flying in. I was at the first Kon in Bangor but I can't wait to go back! I'm really looking forward to it.

...Greeting and Salivations!.....The Kon is almost upon us, and for those attending the Friday night hootenanny with the GNT family-the address to the lakehouse is as follows:

475 Beechwood Avenue
Old Town ME 04468

Also, the menu for Saturday night at the Oriental Jade has been selected by yours truly-It will run approx. $23 a head and is buffet style....I know it sounds pricey, but the cheaper version gave little choice in variety.....

It's Kon week!!! Two days until I start my trek to Maine!!:lol2:

We're flying thru La Guardia and arriving mid afternoon in Bangor on Wednesday! Thursday, I think my mom wants to just explore, then Friday we'll be shopping and resting up for the Cookout! Whoohoo!!

It looks like the weather is going to be perfect! Sunny and mid 80s in the day, low humidity and in the 50s at night, so good sleeping temps!! So excited! I already have tentative plans to meet up with one member before the big shindig kick off. If anyone else is coming in early and wants to catch up, just send me a PM and we can exchange info.

Thanks for the update, GNTLGNT ! I think $23 sounds pretty reasonable. Can't wait!!!

Somewhere over the rainbow
I hope Ms. Mod's warned the Kings the circus is in town...
They might want to lay in some supplies and hunker down.
Or, as lots of crazy fans descend on where he lives,
Now might be the time for them to visit relatives.


I'm not saying that we'll all get drunk and storm their house;
Lurk outside their gates and snap some "selfies" with our spouse,
I just think, if I were them, that I'd head to the beach
Far away from anywhere a drunken fan could reach.

Not that I'm suggesting something or that I believe
Anybody in our group would try harassing Steve.
But, it can't be restful - as he works and sleeps and eats
With a horde of Constant Readers roaming Bangor's streets.

They won't be in Bangor but still probably a good idea not to get drunk and storm their house. :laugh:
