RE: House Filk Dates

Sounds good to me. We started trying to get our house in shape to hold filks again but we didn't get very far because Jody had to go and find a 5 inch or so turtle in the middle of the road Friday afternoon. It was under attack by birds so naturally Jody rescued it. Needless to say there was more playing with the turtle than clean up accomplished. I not sure my schedule will allow a filk in August but I'm going to shoot for October. I'll pass on a date after I talk to the boss, but I'm sure she'll go for it. Sorry I missed Saturday but my shoulder is destroyed and it's going to be about a month before it really likes doing anything. Hopefully nothing else will break down before it gets better (I think my warrantee has expired).
