missingcharlie Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 It seems like everytime I come on this site, there are more and more people from Arizona on here. I'm wondering if any of you would like to try to make plans to get together? I think it would be wonderful if we could all meet. Let me know what you think and we will work on it...Hugs to all!!Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tori Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I'm in West central Phoenix and I'd be interested. I don't drive very far anymore, but I'd try to make it if I could get there without having to drive on a freeway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubleJo Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Walt says there was an earthquake in Greece. I remember when I had my apartment on Loukianou in Athens the buildings shook during one of your quakes. Loved your country so much came back to live there a number of years ago. That's why I love Arizona. Some parts very similiar. Lets see, it's 2500 miles from Arizona to New York, another 2-3000 miles to Greece I think. Take care-DoubleJo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missingcharlie Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Come on, people from AZ.....respond! A couple of you have, but I want the rest of you to. I am sorry that not everyone here could meet up! I would love to meet all of you.Kathy and Tori...what is considered West Central Phoenix? West of Central?!?!? DUH!! In that case...I'm west of Central - extremely west, but west. Ha!I missed you guys, too, Kath, but had to help out at work. Saved me money for gas and lunch and made a little at the same time. Did Jan tell you that I got promoted to the manager of the store? Have the best day possible!Hugs to all.Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tori Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Patti, congratulations on your promotion!Let's start with suggestions for a meeting location and see what we can come up with. The Big Apple at Indian School and 31st ave is well within my "comfort zone" as is the Villiage Inn at I-17 and Northern and Denny's at 35th and Bethany Home. (I might get a little more adventuresome if no freeways are involved ) All quite a bit East of Buckeye I know!LOLThe Big Apple has semi-private areas with adequate seating for larger groups and they're very seldom crowded. With the other two we'd have to avoid peak hours--particularly lunch time. Timewise I could be available just about any time since I'm retired.Any other suggestions?

Bebekat Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Patti,Jan did tell me about your promotion! Congrats girl!!Tori,All of the places you mentioned are really close to my house. I'm open to meeting just about anywhere. My work schedule changes from week to week, so I would have to plan. I would also hope it would be more than the three of us, but I know it is a big step to take. There might be some places in Avondale. Tori would just have to take Indian School, no freeways involved, or I could pick you up. (I am not a psycho, ask Patti) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest moparlicious Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hi!I live in Glendale, but within the next 2 weeks moving to Phx. Let's get together!!!! I would love it. Weekends work for me. I work full time and go to school at night, so I am gone 12 to 16 hours a day. Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertBob Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 I'm in.My work schedule is generally very flexible so I have no real preference for days or times. With a couple of week's notice anything is probably fine. East Valley is best for me, but I'm pretty flexible there too.--Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missingcharlie Posted February 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Weekends are best for me, too. Lets start planning for a Sat. in March. I'm going to need to plan, also, because I do work some Saturday's. Currently my grandsons are playing basketball in Surprise, so I go out there on Saturdays, but their last game is March 8th or 9th (which ever is a Sat.) Anywhere you all want to go is fine with me....since pretty much EVERYWHERE in Arizona is "east of Buckeye". I don't have any issues with driving. And Kathy (Bebekat) is absolutely right - she's not a psycho!! She's very sweet!Lets keep in touch and start planning and maybe by that time a few more people will respond. I KNOW there are more people on here from AZ. (Stalen?, John (Dusky)?....who else?)Gotta get in the shower and ready for work. We will definately get this planned!!Hugs to everyone!Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertBob Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 All my Saturdays in March are clear at the moment.--BobWeekends are best for me, too. Lets start planning for a Sat. in March.Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagie Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I live in Apache Junction, but heck...I'll drive ALL the way to the West side to meet some new friends, especially friends who are feeling the pain I'm feeling. I work Mon-Fri, so weekends would be the only time I would be able to join all of you.Love & hugs to all, Reatha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleJo Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 This was tried last year, but all the people on the west side wouldn't drive into central phoenix or east phoenix as a half way point, so it came to nothing. DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebekat Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I have to work on March 22. The other Saturdays are open for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missingcharlie Posted March 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Well, I think I'm the only one from the "far west valley" and I have no problem with driving to central Phoenix. I am thinking, tho, that I might have to wait until April....my March Saturday's are getting used up between my ex-husband coming into town to visit my daughter and grandkids. I'm scheduled to work a couple of Saturday's this month and since I've had every Sat. off for the last 2 months so I could attend my grandson's basketball games....I'm going to have to work.I hope you all don't mind waiting.... (actually, you don't have to wait if you all don't want to....maybe we could meet AGAIN in April....) If people don't want to drive to meet some new friends, then I guess they don't have to. I would love to meet up with anyone that is interested.We'll get something figured out!Hugs.Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebekat Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 April 12 is the only Sat I have available that month. Maybe we could figure something for then? Let me know.Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tori Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Are we still working on this? I'm available just about any time during daylight hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
