    Per Volquartz memorial?

    Not sure which forum this should be in...

    Are any of the usual suspects, you know who you are, planning a large format gathering at Joshua Tree this winter.

    Maybe a Per V. tribute?

    If there is something in the works, I'd be interested. Only did one of Per's workshop/gatherings but had plans for more.

    Yes, there are plans in the works to continue the get togethers. Matt and Jim and myself will be working on them. VERY tentative date is the first weekend in March. Details to follow.

    Frank, thanks for catching this. Yes, we will have a tribute to our friend at JT in 2012. We will get detail out once we get through the holiday period and figure out the best dates. A bigggggg bonfire is in order!

    BTW, Frank, Matt and I will have it very well organized so do not worry about that.

    I only met Per once, never made it to one of the Joshua Tree gatherings, but I think Per would agree that it is never too late to start -- I'll try to be there...boys in high school permitting!

    When I saw that date my jaw dropped. On the first weekend of March, the 4th, well it's my 40th wedding anniversary.

    Oh, honey, I'll be in the southwest that day having fun with the guys and gals.

    Let's be cool guys. It is too early to worry about the date but we will keep this in mind. No matter what date we decide it will cause a problem for someone. Such is life.

    Don't forget to check with Diwan! Frank, I'm pretty sure he talked to you in Santa Fe about the special thing he's doing that will be taken care of in Joshua Tree. If you weren't in on that talk, let me know and I'll fill you in, or check with Diwan.

    Kewl! I was sure someone would have something in the works.

    I hope it happens on a weekend I can make it.

    Did one Mono Lake/Bodie gathering, a fantastic week. Ann and our Great Pyrenees, Mindy Sue, attended as observers. Everyone made us all feel like part of the family.

    We live in Solvang so Per immediately bonded and had us looking up Danes who had moved to Solvang from Bodie.

    Please add me to whatever notification list there is. I know that Robert Oliver will also like to be there if he can.
