It looks like Smith is the winner. http://www.smithplayhouse.org/
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! September 28, around noonish.
Cecily will pick me up and bring me. I'll be without kids, but yours are obviously welcome.
Mat Johnson: Pym: A Novel
So far this book is everything. Like, everything in literature and exploration and culture all taken in and then spit back out like a serrated knife through soft butter.
Steven Gary Blank: The Four Steps to the Epiphany: Successful Strategies for Products that Win
Dense, with valuable ideas on every page.
Douglas Adams: The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Franz Babinger: Mehmed the Conqueror and His Time
Yes, he's reading this huge academic tome. A friend gave it to me, and when I handed it to my son he said, "I've heard a lot about this dude! Cool!" Nerdtastic.
Jeff Kinney: Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 1
He's ripping through this one.

Okay, so this means someone needs to pick up Nancy.
Anyone have space in their car for another car seat (or Nancy, do you need more than that? Do you also need a car seat? I have no clue about urban living, as you can probably tell... We just outgrew our snazzy infant-to-toddler seats, so we could loan one to whomeever is picking you up... though we don't have space for two more bodies in our car, dangit).
Goddess Babe, if we caravan up, would you have room in your car for Nancy et 1 (or howevermany)? We could bring up our spare seat (if needed - heck, you can keep it, it has no accidents and 2 more good years before expiration), swap and caravan from there? Or anyone else?
Don't want to leave Nancy out in the cold, just for want of a car.

Ah, wait--otherwise would Cecily take Nancy? If so, I'm sure I can find another lift. It's easier for me as a single adult than for her to find space for kid(s).
Posted by: Moxie | September 24, 2008 at 10:09 AM
Where's nancy? I have room to pick up a carseat and a grown up, but I"m coming from walt whitman/ben franklin.
I'm happy to detour, but I don't want to head out to the mainline or anything.
Posted by: Nutmeg | September 24, 2008 at 10:44 AM
oh.. and I have an extra seat if necessary
Posted by: Nutmeg | September 24, 2008 at 10:45 AM
Y'all are so sweet! Danielle has offered us a ride, and she lives close by. But thanks and see you Sunday! I hope the weather is nice...
Posted by: Nancy | September 24, 2008 at 11:25 AM
Can't wait! W00t!
Posted by: Cecily | September 24, 2008 at 11:43 AM
Oh, wait... noonish? Shit. That's getting on to Tori's nap time.
Posted by: Cecily | September 24, 2008 at 11:43 AM
Nancy, I'm happy to bring the three of you. My car is small, but luckily we all are too. I think you have my email address, let's coordinate about meeting up.
Noonish is usually naptime for us too, I guess all bets are off for Sunday!
Posted by: Danielle | September 24, 2008 at 11:53 AM
We'll probably be there until at least 3PM (there's no way to get our kids out of anywhere physical in under three hours), so if someone is later, at least we're likely to still be there.
Posted by: hedra | September 24, 2008 at 12:06 PM
What if we say 11? Danielle - I think Susy has your email (or your phone number?). There is actually a chance we will ride our bikes, depending on the weather. My email is ngolumbi at gmail dot com if you want to email me directly. Thanks!
Posted by: Nancy | September 24, 2008 at 01:01 PM
Whooo.. I'm nervous, with all of my like 5 posts ever on this site.. hahaha.
How old are everyones kids if they are bringing them? My little monster is 17months and a complete maniac so umm... beware :)
Posted by: andrea2 | September 24, 2008 at 01:02 PM
Ooohhh 11ish or a little before noon would work better for us too, just because nap time happens sometime between 1 and 2....
Posted by: andrea2 | September 24, 2008 at 01:03 PM
Hey how bout if I post for the third time in a row. That would be neat! Haha
Anyway, Ive never been to Smith - is there somewhere in particular to meet? I'm paranoid that we'll get there and be like "uhhh cool I dont know who I'm looking for" and then leave haha
Posted by: andrea2 | September 24, 2008 at 01:13 PM
we probably won't be there until noonish, regardless (post-sunday school). No idea where to meet, but, hmm. The four kids thing does tend to make us stand out a bit.
If you see a small girl who looks petite and pixie-like (brunette) with an adorable bangs/bob haircut racing around with a large stuffed shark, that'd be Miss M. Or two boys with long hair only in the back (like horse manes), wearing capes, those are also ours. Miss R is harder to single out.
Posted by: hedra | September 24, 2008 at 02:05 PM
I'm not sure when we'll get there... Eli has nap at 12:30 usually, but tends to be pretty flexible if there is something fun going on. He will probably nap on the way there for a short stint... so we'll probably aim for 12 too.
I have very, very short, platinum blonde highlighted hair, and will be with a short, dark and handsome 21 month old who looks nothing like me... especially since he has dark brown, longish, curlyish hair.
Posted by: Nutmeg | September 24, 2008 at 02:11 PM
The little Nutmeg will look like R, then... except her hair is chin-length (brown, wavy hair, and darker skin than any of us... she got all ep's melanin genes, and my one.)
Posted by: hedra | September 24, 2008 at 02:52 PM
I'm going to try to make it, but I have a baby shower at 1:00. And I have a terrible time leaving the house before noon, so that doesn't bode well for getting to Smith in time to spend more than ten minutes there.
If I do make it, I have long hair, as does my three-year-old; my ten-year-old wears glasses. We'll also be over-dressed for the playground due to the baby shower.
I haven't commented here lately, but I did in the past a few times as Mary.
Posted by: Perfectly Disgraceful | September 24, 2008 at 03:31 PM
Okay well... I've got black shoulder length hair and I'm pregnant so I weigh about 7000 lbs at the moment. Hunter is a cute and very tiny (eating? What? Kids DO that??) little blonde guy with short hair and a big smile permanently pasted on his face. I hope I can find everyone...
Posted by: andrea2 | September 24, 2008 at 03:42 PM
I've never been there either - do we meet inside or outside? We are two moms (a blond shortish one and a dark-haired, tallish one) and an almost 2 year old, dark-haired, muffin man.
Posted by: Nancy | September 24, 2008 at 04:02 PM
I have a curly haired 15 month old with an NG tube so I think I'll be easy to spot. The tube is yellow.
Posted by: Danielle | September 24, 2008 at 04:59 PM
Hoping to make it! Munchkin is 13mos & will most likely have her mouse-brown hair in a little pig tail on top of her head. I'm 5-foot-nothing and chubby with blond/brown highlighted barely shoulder-length hair.
Posted by: jennyG | September 24, 2008 at 07:00 PM
Hey Danielle youre the one that replied to my lament about my son getting a tube on the other thread. Sweet now I can harrass you in person with all my stupid questions :)
Posted by: andrea2 | September 24, 2008 at 07:05 PM
Andrea- No question is stupid. And I've got your back.
Posted by: Danielle | September 24, 2008 at 07:49 PM
I'm gonna have to print this out so I can remember everything (everyone). Ooh, I can be the ... dang, what was the title/role of the chirpy girl with the clipboard on The Love Boat? (Totally the wrong job for me. Name, face, not an equation in my head...)
Posted by: hedra | September 24, 2008 at 08:01 PM
How big is this place anyway? I'm picturing a huge playground and like 10 of us all wandering around aimlessly looking for eachother for hours, hahaha.
Posted by: andrea2 | September 24, 2008 at 08:27 PM
Hah. In ecology, andrea's picture is called the Allee effect. Small populations might actually decline, rather than increase, even if they have plenty of resources simply because they can't FIND eachother to mate.
Not that we're mating at the playground.
@hedra... I think she was Cruise director/Julie.
Clearly I need to stop studying for my comps.
Posted by: Nutmeg | September 24, 2008 at 08:47 PM
Why don't we meet at noonish in front of the big wooden slide if it is not raining and then inside the playhouse by the front check-in/make a donation area if it is rainy? Both of those spots are pretty obvious to find, even if you have never been there before. People who arriving earlier can find each other and then still meet everyone else at noon.
We are coming from the mainline. We can't leave until 11ish because of church, but if you need a lift from that direction, please email me at thewaltmans at hotmail dot com. I can fit three additional adults/kids in my car. I am short with brown shoulder-length hair and I will have an extremely blond two-year old boy and a five year old girl with bangs and brown hair like mine with me.
Posted by: Jessica | September 25, 2008 at 09:28 AM
I so wish I could be there, but I'll be driving back from Vermont at noon on Sunday. Hope everyone has fun!
Posted by: Dawn | September 25, 2008 at 10:16 AM
I'd really prefer 11, if that works for you, Moxie. Unless we manage an early nap for Tori.
I'm fat with red hair with gold bangs. I'll try, if it's warm enough, to show my tattoos. I'll be the short fat girl with tattoos. Tori is a little over two, with chin length brown hair. She'll be the kid that never stays still and zooms from object to object to object. My husband will be there too, and he's tall, will be wearing a baseball hat, and has bright blue eyes and some object of his clothing will reference trains.
:)
Posted by: Cecily | September 26, 2008 at 06:34 PM
@hedra - Julie was the Cruise Director on Love Boat.
Re: rides, theoretically I have room, IF I clean my car. Otherwise, I can only fit one adult in the front with me. That said, anyone on the way from Wilmington to Philly coming solo, I can probably manage that with less angst.
Uh. Or not.
Just realized I talked to a Philly friend about hanging out at her place after the park, which would screw up rides home. Wouldn't affect a ride up though.
Oh, me? Really short (4'11") with long dark blonde hair and long-haired very fair-haired child. :)

Posted on hey there fine little bgongilg site ya have there I utilize the same exact template on mine although for whatever odd reasons it looks to reload better on your site although this blog has got a good deal more multimedia. Are you making use of any individual plugins or widgets that will speed it up? Do you think you could quite possibly reveal the plug ins so I can use them in my personal resource site so twilight new moon followers could watch twilight breaking dawn online trailers and films more quickly I would be happy thank you in advance

denise, the thing you have to remember about ALL polls, is that crteain assumptions are made. Some are quite reasonable, counting a crteain percentage for men and a crteain amount for women, and the same for differen traces, geographic regions, and so on. But the Obama Love Fest in the media is circular logic. He gets more press, so he must have more support, so the polls are weighted to show far more democrats than are actually out there. I'm not talking about the historic advantage of democrats to republicans 38 or 39 percent of the voters to the GOP's 35 or 36 percent. I mean polls which weigh as much as 45% democrats to 25% republicans. I will agree that turnout is critical, and if the republicans give up and sit at home, the democrats MAY get their 40-45% of the voters in which case the media-driven polls become self-fulfilling prophecies. But if republicans stay charged, then at the worst they can match almost all of the democrats' votes, and it comes down to a group that the polls have been strangely quiet about.The independents.Did you wonder why McCain took the tone he did in the first debate, Mister Reasonable and not on the attck, even when it looked like he had an easy line to Obama's weak spots? Obama was speaking like a democrat, McCain aimed for the indies.Why have the polls not shown his results? Two reasons. First, polls have crunched hard on indies, because about ONE-THIRD of them have still not made up their mind (from internals at Gallup, CBS, and Fox polls), and so they are down-weighted, as little as 10% of the voters in some cases. And two, most of them are still making up their minds, and the debate laid seeds. It's not an overnight thing.I tell you plainly, McCain is winning right now, when you take the polls, use their internals to back-step the weighting and re-weight with historical norms.We.Are.Winning.Ever wonder why Obama is nastier than ever? Why did they try such an obvious dirty trick with getting Ifil as the moderator for the VP debate? He's losing and he knows it.All Obama can do is bluff, but we have to be careful and not buy the hype.
