Hey guys anyone living in the Charlotte, North Carolina area?

Just curious...I don't have a any friends here and when my finace` gets approve (staying positive and optimistic) he won't have any either, and I thought it would be great to have some buddies that went through or that will be going through the same things we did...and we would already have something in common ;-).

Everyone listed under your local office is "near" Charlotte relatively speaking.

Hi,

My fiance is from NC too but he's at the New Bern Area. I will be going there early next year.
Reba
There are lots of people in NC, but I dunno how many of them are actually in or close to Charlotte. I'm an hour and a half away, in Morganton.
Alie
We don't actually live in Charlotte, but are a 45min drive away in Lincolnton.

Alie
eau_xplain
We are in Winston Salem, about 1.5 hours away.
Reba
Hi Alie! biggrin.gif Long time no see!
Alie
Hey Reba...It HAS been a long time. Wanna get together one day soon?

Hi Alie! biggrin.gif Long time no see!

Reba
Yep, we should absolutely!

Lemmee see...we're booked next weekend, and I think the weekend after that...hey, we're trying to get tickets to see Jeff Dunham in Lenoir, wanna come? Friday October 5th. We're going with a bunch of folks from Hickory, they're a bit weird but mostly harmless wink.gif I don't think we have anything to do Oct. 6th, but then after that the next few Saturdays are booked. And I work M- F these days. Could do an evening in the week I suppose, except Wednesdays, we have dog obedience training with George. Again.

Sundays are usually right out of the question because James is gaming again, and they start at 1:30 and go til about 9pm wacko.gif If I try to make plans for a Sunday, he gets cranky tongue.gif

Hey are you going to the CanSouth Oktoberfest? We're not unfortunately, we already had other plans. But they're good folks, we had fun at the Canada Day bash.
Alie
Well I guess this is why it's been so long since we got together, our schedules make it almost impossible!!!

We leave on vacation this Saturday, so next weeks out. Sundays are out for us too, since its football for Steve and Nascar for me. I think it'll have to be a weekday get together. I have no clue who Jeff Dunham is, so I'm sure Steve wouldn't be interested in getting tickets to see him.

Do you already have plans for Mon. Oct. 8th? It's Canadian Thanksgiving, we could go out for dinner to celebrate it.

Alie

That would be great, sorry for replying so late but we have been trying to get settled and get married.

Anytime is great for me, what are you doing for the 3 day weekend, Are you going to the Renaissance Festival starting this weekend? Maybe we can meet up there.
