[Gatesedge] November Event Planning Meeting

[Kelly Rhodes]

Howdy all:

The first planning meeting for our November event, Cour d'Amour, will be
held at my house Wednesday, September 4th, 7pm. Everyone is welcome to
attend. I will provide refreshments. You might not like 'em, but I'll
provide 'em.

We still need someone to volunteer to be Prize Coordinator. This ironically
titled position entails scraping together prizes for other people, but
thought you'll likely deserve one, you yourself do not get a prize. <cue
suspenseful music> Or...DO you?

My phone number is (281) 356-3194. Call if you get lost, and I will come
find you. Probably.

Directions from Tomball:
Take FM 249 north from Tomball. You will cross a long bridge and come into
Decker Prairie. Turn left at the 2nd light (there is a Regions Bank where
you turn). You will see a church and a fire station on the left immediately
after turning. Go straight at the stop sign and follow the small white signs
that point to 'Stagecoach Road'. Continue straight--you will pass a Jehovah
Witness hall on the left and Teas Nursery on the right. Continue around a 90
degree curve to the right. Look for Stagecoach Road on your left--should be
the last turnoff to the left before the road makes another curve. Turn left
on Stagecoach Rd.

You will pass the entrance to a subdivision called Timbergreen, and right
after that you will see a red sign saying that you're entering Stagecoach
Farm. Stay on Stagecoach as it winds around. *Be sure and drive 35 as this
is a speedtrap.* You should start looking for a lake and park to come up on
your right as you round a curve. Watch for a road called Walnut Creek to
come in on the left--immediately before a small bridge. Turn left on Walnut
Creek. Cross *another* small bridge. The road will immediately fork. Take
the RIGHT HAND fork with the sign 'Hartman Road'. Continue down to the third
house on the right which is 16114 Hartman. It is a brick house with a yellow
sign at the road that says 'Airplane Crossing'. The gate will be open for
you.

Directions from Magnolia:
Take Nichols Sawmill Rd. out of Magnolia. Keep on truckin', passing Magnolia
Elementary School and Magnolia High School, Indigo Lakes Estates, and Lyons
Jr. High or whatever it is. Be on the lookout for Butera Road on your
left--there is a volunteer fire station and a large new Exxon station where
you turn. Turn left on Butera and continue through Dogwood Hills. You will
come up on a four-way stop with flashing red lights where Butera crosses
Walnut Creek. Turn left on Walnut Creek. Continue down Walnut Creek, cross a
bridge, and then keep a sharp eye out for a street that will come in from
the left at a funky angle. This is Hartman Road. Turn left on Hartman.
Continue down to the third house on the right which is 16114 Hartman. It is
a brick house with a yellow sign at the road that says 'Airplane Crossing'.
The gate will be open for you.

Directions from anywhere else:
Hire a helicopter. I will clear a landing pad for you in the back pasture.
Call ahead, and I will put the shotgun away.

Hope to see you!
