Re: Good Morning !!

Hey Carol, and thanks.  I had a great thanksgiving and hope everyone else did as well.  I actually leave out again Monday!!!   Looks like I'll be on the road until Xmas  :/

Re: Good Morning !!

finally made it back in town last night.  Good to sleep in my own bed after two weeks!!!

Re: What's happening???

well it sucks up here in KC...been snowing and in the low 30's.  st. louis is next   :/

Re: November Meeting

sorry I didnt give a heads up guys.  I am TDY and will not be back for at least another week.  Didn't mean to not post...just A LOT going on right now. 

Re: new members

Also, I think the point Tuffish is getting to is the lack of RECENT fishing posts.  We have had little to no activity.

Re: new members

sorry to tell you this jesse, but no one has been appointed officers in your absence.... that was one of the things we were concerned about.   Terry HAD said a while back that he would get to it and talk to you also, but nothing has happened.  You and Terry hold the only leadership positions.  Nothing has been done since your absence.

Re: What's happening???

glad to hear you're doing well carol!!!

Re: Gishing at S. Padre

I think that's one of my favorite things...salty air!!!   Glad you at least enjoyed yourself.   Where'd you fish at?

Re: November Meeting

Jesse, I'm sorry if I came across the wrong....I guess what I meant was just making sure that it got done or letting us know you need a volunteer, and as I said, I'm not pointing the finger at you one bit.  It's just been really frustrating with the same 2-3 people communicating and not being the ones who are able to make the decisions.  I had recommended a few times that Carol be an officer or given specific rights but nothing has happened.....

Re: November Meeting

Yeah I know what you mean Jesse...we had agreed last meeting and online I believe to try a rotation but I don't think a plan ever materialized.  I don't want to sound like I'm criticizing anyone but I have mentioned a few times I think we need our leadership chain structured.  Basically it's just you and Terry, and when you were out, it was just Terry.  I will be honest and say that it's frustrating when suggestions are made, agreed upon, but never executed.  I think we may have already lost a couple of good potential members because of this.  I don't want you or Terry to take this personal especially since we know that you've had things beyond your control, but we have been at a standstill since Kai stepped down.  The officer/member chain has not been reestablished since then and the few of us left have been looking to the club's officers to make certain decisions to keep this thing going....even something as simple as making a rotating reservation roster, or least delegating that task.  There are questions from members that go unanswered on this site for several days, to include hours before the next meeting.  This is getting frustrating as a member who wants to see this club not only survive, but flourish.

Re: new members

hope so too...but he's bounced in and out like this lately

Re: new members

dunno... havent heard from him since the meeting...

Re: November Meeting

Jesse!!!   Glad to hear from you and glad to hear you're better.  I was starting to wonder if you were okay.  Look forward to seeing you again!!!

Re: November Meeting

I absolutely agree Carol.  I would honestly consider doing it, but with my schedule, I'm afraid that I might not be available to take care of it when necessary... any ideas or other volunteers?  I don't mind forking over a lil money each meeting for "just in case" cash.

Re: Good Morning !!

Havent heard anything from Terry on that.  He said he was going to call.  I need to call James also to make sure he's okay.

Re: make a post

goes back to our discussion this weekend...but,

 
procrastination and indecision is like a slow creeping rot

Re: october meeting

Agreed Carol!!!   Hopefully next time we wont get robbed nearly as badly, but hey, it was at least nice to get out there and relax.

Re: october meeting

Sounds like you're meaning business there Carol.  I have a 5 ft cast net that I plan to bring but I still need A LOT of practice.  Personally, it wouldnt hurt me if the beans were a little spicier but thats just me.  We're gonna have to make sure you get some good catches before your surgery.  I'll bring the car battery and wires!!  (jus kiddin)

Re: signatures people use

LOL

Re: october meeting

I won't get back into town until Friday afternoon but if you need help with anything that afternoon let me know.  That's a great idea for managing the reservations tuff.  Whaddaya say Terry?

Re: october meeting

Hey Carol, better than having no spot at all.  Thanks alot.  I'm already looking forward to next weekend, should be a lot of fun!!!

Re: october meeting

No doubt!!!   

Re: october meeting

same here!!!  beans, beer, and cool weather!!!!

Re: october meeting

I would assume so Carol, but I don't want to step over Terry.  I would go ahead with it if you don't hear anything VERY shortly.

Re: WELCOME BACK JAMES!!!

LOL
