Hmmm.... maybe Ross could bring this up at the next County Comm. meeting or maybe get Elk Konn involved in this.  Is that Senior facility that EK had still available?  It could bring in a nice tidy sum for the County.  Possibly that nice County Commissioner Ms. Henricks could help.  I mean after all, she's going to put in a Golf Course for Elk, isn't she?


Warph!!! You're a genius!  Considering the increasing numbers of seniors here, maybe you're on to something.... but if it's couched as economic development, the county needs to run it itself.  We old folks have enough problems with blurry vision without the added blurring of public/private partnerships.  If run privately by EK, then the county county could impose a Frosty Prosty tax and use the revenue to buy more G-rated movies for rental at the library.  The clinics could be contracted to help with hearing AIDS prevention.  Batson's might benefit from increased sales of Viagra & vitamin C.  We might get a physical therapy clinic to open & help with the after effects of all the strenuous exercise.  The county transportation service would see an increase in ridership, too. 

But, where to build?  Howard?  Longton?  Elk Falls?  Moline?  Grenola?  Or maybe revive the old spa resort at Cave Springs.  Now that's neighborhood revitalization!   But those bad roads will have to be fixed first.  Agenda 65 anyone?  Gee, maybe somebody could get a grant!  ;D

Brilliant idea. We could get ol Ross to do a feasibility study. It would be like old times for that old squid. Almost like docking at a different port every week.
(PS; Ross I'm going to NC for a few day where it's cool in the Smokey mountains so don't bother coming to Longton to put an old time Kansas ass whup'n on me ) ;D

I don't know if my wfe would approve of me doing that particular feasibility study, no I know she wouldn't.
But the old swabbie in me would. LOL Shame on me!

I'd have to settle on the County Commissioner Rehabilitation reasibility study, oops  mean the Propoesd County Revitalization Program feasbility program. Hiccup, hiccup!

Have a safe trip and drag some cool and wet (rain that is) back with you.

I'll try and have a safe trip Ross. Looks like a chance of rain every day we will be there but I welcome it. Might get drunk and dance nakkid in the rain !!
I will be seeing two ol swabbies, Doc Bones and Doc Wayne. You want me to tell them that you think they were crazy for becoming Corpsman and both volunteering FMF ? (that mean Fleet Marine Force for the Fly -Boys reading this---and in 68-69 that guaranteed you a set of  orders for West Pac ) :D

Jarhead, have a safe trip, ole buddy! (that is as long as you are going east and not west.)  FYI, I tried dancing nekkid in the rain once.  All I got out of it was wet, cold and a sinus infection that lasted longer than the rain did.   ::)

HELP!  I'm talking and I can't shut up!

I came...  I saw...  I had NO idea what was going on...

If you are in Asheville, NC with the wife, The Grove Park Inn is the place to stay, Jar.  Have stayed there many times.  They would usually stick me in the Richard Nixon Room 'cause State was paying the tab.   You do not want that.  You would need a ladder to get on the bed.  I recommend th Romance pkg. for you and your lovely wife.

Their Grand Romance Package Includes:
*Two nights of resort accommodations on our exclusive, adult-only Club Floor

*Access to The Spa during your entire stay

*Two evenings of romantic dining for two (one evening at Horizons Dining Room--Asheville's only 4-diamond restaurant,
and one evening at your choice of either the Sunset Terrace or an In-Room Dining experience)

*One bottle of Trader Joe's sparkling wine

*Seasonal floral arrangement from our in-house floral department

*Daily continental breakfast in the Club Floor Lounge

*Daily evening cocktails and hors d'oeuvres in the Club Floor Lounge

All this for a measly:
Prices for this two-night package start at $2,046*
    *Price does not include taxes and $22 daily Resort Charge.
         **Don't argue, your Wife will love you for it. You may want to renew your wedding vows.


P.S. - Stay away from this guy if you stay there.... Tip crazy maintenance/porter. 
Lives in a closet across from the RNixon Room:



While you are out there dancing in the rain, If you see my friend Nadia, my slavic hope... tell her I said hi.:


Here we are dancing in the rain back in the day:


I'd stay away from this one if I were you...


Don't show any of these pictures to anyone... My wife, well you know what I mean. 

Have a great trip.  I'll be out there in Sept.

Warph,
Be staying 30 minutes from Ashville. Be staying in Waynesville at some Golf Resort and Spa---but aint no way my fat arse is whacking some little ball then chasing it down, only to whack it again. No, I will be sitting on a deck drinking White Russians and smoking a Cohiba, and watching them other fools. Leaving in 10 minutes because I decided to drive to California then swing east to NC ---after I spend a few days with ol Doc, out on the west coast. You locals be warned---any sum bickle think they are gonna steal tomatoes and watermelons from my garden while I'm gone, Teresa volunteered to guard it. She is out there laying in the melon patch----and I might add it's a perfect camouflage  ---her just laying there amongst the melons----I'll quit while I'm ahead !!!! ;D
