Yes, I nagged my husband for two years, and he finally gave in last year. After experiencing the Houston Area Texans, he will attend every shoot, God willing, and the job doesn’t interfere.
I confess to not wanting to leave last time. There were so many nice FReepers there that we felt right at home. Meeting people in real life who are so totally sweet, nice, and Conservative gave me the most joy that I’ve had since my last TEA party and the time Mr. Newt came to our town to campaign and fund raise for Bill Johnson, Ohio’s 6th District representative.
That is wonderful to hear. I really miss socializing with freepers both online and in person. My husband and I have only been together for a few years and he is quite conservative, my dad refers to him as “to the right of Atilla,” but he isn’t interested in FR online. He has met a few of my FRiends and enjoyed the company so I know he would enjoy the group. My biggest selling point is that I can guarantee there won’t be any flaming liberals to tick him off. :)
I have got a call in to the cottages now to see about pricing for Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. I am supposed to give thehusband a financial estimate and I expect we will be all in after that. I am already getting really excited about attending. The last 2 years have been spent caring for sick/recovering family and friends and recovering from an accident I had while caring for one of them. I really NEED to get out and do something I will enjoy!
