Just curious.
December 9, 2012 at 9:17 pm #63669lynng2ParticipantLived there three years, in Durham. I live 3 hrs away now, near Charlotte.
December 9, 2012 at 9:24 pm #63670deedeeParticipantI’m near Raleigh, trying to see if there was someone close to connect with. Yeah, I am very familiar about how far Charlotte is, that’s where my SAH’s girlfriend lives. He’d go on “work trips” twice a week to see her. 🙁
December 9, 2012 at 9:37 pm #63671lynng2ParticipantI’ll give him some work, when he gets here, with a flathead shovel. Sister style.
December 9, 2012 at 9:38 pm #63672lynng2ParticipantSounding like we need a Carolina retreat, isn’t it?
December 9, 2012 at 9:39 pm #63673lynng2ParticipantOk, I propose a once a month meeting of Carolina Girls! Centralized, or we can float around to each person’s locale. We have Charlotte, Winston Salem, Raleigh, and Charleston so far.
December 9, 2012 at 10:01 pm #63674napParticipantYes the official flathead shovel!
December 9, 2012 at 10:16 pm #63675feelingconflictedParticipantHey – I’m in Richmond – not too far from the top of NC…can I be an honorary member of your NC group? 😉
December 9, 2012 at 10:31 pm #63676debincaParticipantLove it. We can have flathead shovel contests and drink like there’s no tomorrow. Bev is only 5 hours away…
Someone plot where we can all meet up that’s central to all of us. Maybe Asheville? I’ve heard it lovely….never been and dying to go.

December 9, 2012 at 10:35 pm #63677trishParticipantI am about an hour from the triangle. My son is in Chapel Hill in medical school and I can be to his apt. in an hour. I am around if that helps you any.
December 9, 2012 at 10:40 pm #63678napParticipantI don’t live close. However would LOVE to go to
Ashville, always wanted to visit there and much fun to meet everyone.December 9, 2012 at 10:42 pm #63679napParticipantI’ll come sober.
December 9, 2012 at 10:45 pm #63680silver-liningParticipantHa! Yeah right, Nap! Bring cigar!!
I don’t think NC is toooo far from the Tennessee holler!
December 9, 2012 at 10:52 pm #63681trishParticipantAshville is lovely – kind of artsy fartsy in a good way. Prettier in the spring, summer and fall though.
December 9, 2012 at 11:20 pm #63682napParticipantSL, I had to cut back on the cigars, they were turnin’ my teeth yeller. Trish, I’ve heard it’s really artsy, I’d love that.
SL you can bring your brownies. :O
December 9, 2012 at 11:25 pm #63683deedeeParticipantI’m about 45 min from Chapel Hill. Maybe three from Asheville. I don’t mind driving though!
December 10, 2012 at 12:38 am #63684debincaParticipantI checked out Asheville on the map – it’s in between all of us….including Bev and maybe SL’s old holler. No more than 3.5 hours for any of us.
I’ve heard it’s a great place. It doesn’t have the healing ocean, but sometimes the mountains can be good, too. Plus, I’ve heard they have yoga retreats 😉

December 10, 2012 at 1:03 am #63685trishParticipantI’d go.
December 10, 2012 at 3:35 am #63686deedeeParticipantMe too. I hear the foliage is beautiful this time of year. We went to the Biltmore in August.
December 10, 2012 at 3:43 am #63687silver-liningParticipantJust found out- I’m 4 hours away!! I’m in!!
December 10, 2012 at 4:46 am #63688lynng2ParticipantMe too!!
No foliage now, Dee Dee, the trees are bare. Was there last weekend.
December 10, 2012 at 9:18 am #63689debincaParticipantSorry – March is in Atlanta and Bev’s in TN…. let’s do it!
Who is the party planner in the group? I’ve never been to Asheville….
Deb
December 10, 2012 at 1:43 pm #63690marchParticipantI’m 3 1/2 hours away. Quite do-able. Asheville is one of my favorite places.
December 10, 2012 at 2:43 pm #63691trishParticipantOK so when – Winter getaway or Spring? I will happily look into places to go to. Anyone interested could private message me what weekends work for them and we could get this party started. It could give me something to focus on besides my separation which is destroying me – in an effort not to destroy me (see, I’m losing my mind).
DeeDee, I am still very close though if you need to meet. My calendar is pretty empty so say when and where and I will be there.December 10, 2012 at 4:24 pm #63692feelingconflictedParticipantIt’s about 5.5 hours from me – a little long but doable. Count me in for a winter or spring retreat!
