Reminder: GTG this Saturday!

Laurelhurst Park in SE/N Portland, it's on Stark and 39th(which is now Cesar Chavez), near Burnside, it's a huge park with lots of shade, a play structure for the kids, duck ponds, etc.  Plenty of parking nearby!

http://www.portlandonline.com/parks/finder/index.cfm?propertyid=224&action=viewpark

Picnic potluck, bring something snacky to share with the group!

11:00am, 12 noon ish.

Everyone is welcome, please RSVP!  Kids (and and well behaved dogs!) are welcome!  Ladies only, let's leave the husbands at home this time.

Everyone bring a blanket and/or chairs to sit on, and we will be by the large swingset, near the kids play area and the tennis courts.  This park takes up about 3 city blocks, it's huge!  So if you are by the duck pond or the off-leash area, you are not in the right area!  Keep walking until you see the tennis courts!

  • I'll be there, and bringing Mini-Jen and some kind of yummy dessert!  I'll have an orange striped blanket and a green stroller.

    I'll be on a red blanket with an extremely large lap dog.  I'll probably bring a deli tray of some sort.  Should I get some bottles of water as well?  I know it's bad for the environment, but we can promise to recycle?

  • We just got to Portland last night! I'm in as long as the H and I don't decide to go out of town somewhere and explore this weekend... I'll let you know for sure later this week, but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to make it!

    I'll bring some kind of salad (couscous or quinoa or something) probably. Not sure if I'll bring the pup yet.

    Can't wait!

  • I'll be there. I have no idea what I'm bringing 'cause I'm just not that organized yet. :)  I wear a lot of black & have bright red hair w/ bleached blonde highlights, so if you see me wandering around, looking lost, please say hello! I'm really looking forward to meeting you ladies (and your pups & kidlets!).
  • I'll be there! I was going to bring a pasta salad, but that looks like it might be covered, so I'll have to re-think my menu item .

    I'm short, with short dark hair, and may or not bring my pup along. (see photo below lol)

  • Still debating whether I'm going yet or not ;). DH has the weekend off for a change so we might just want to relax at home, or I might come with just the baby. If I do come I'm bringing cheese croquettes.

    I read this and was like "wtf is this???" lol.

    Hi Big Smile  I think you should come!!  I'll help you corral Katie if you do decide to bring her!

    If you want to bring the pasta salad, go for it! I don't know if I'm going to have time to make one ... so I'll probably bring deviled eggs or bruschetta ...

  • Not sure if anyone will see this since it's almost 11... but, how long do you think you'll stay at the park today? H and I are heading to the Farmer's Market right now, but I'd really like to stop by the gtg a little later if you think you'll still be there. :)
