Beach week 2016 (tools & packing reminder)

Good morning Ladies! :cool5: Beach week is only 2 months away! Can you believe it? http://www.outerbeaches.com/OuterBanks/ ... oneyDunes/
The food thread will be a separate thread.

We did a good job of paring down what we brought last year. I thought this might be a good time to let everyone know what you plan to bring (tools).

Please remember to bring extension cords (we never seem to have too many) and a desk lamp. We should have plenty of daylight but the evenings might be tricky.

Sheets & pillowcases & bathroom hand soap are provided but bring towels (bath & beach).
Trash bags are provided but consider bringing a bag/container for your work space.
Jill (I think it was Jill!) brought plastic table cloths - that was a huge help. If anyone runs across a good deal on one, please bring them!
A "starter supply" of TP is probably not enough - how about we just say for every one to bring a roll?
Consider bringing a chair cushion. We will probably use folding chairs for our work tables leaving the dining chairs/tables for meals.

Remember to label any food that IS NOT for the group.

Jill I hope you will still be able to come. I hope he is improving.

I do know that I will bring my Big Shot, all my dies & EF's.
I have my cushion, plan on bringing sun screen but I don't lay out on the beach but I do walk it as much as the legs will take. Do we know anything about meals yet?

Board Wok is already open and I saw lights on in Lisa's Pizzeria tonight, so they'll probably open soon. I'm guessing they'll all be open by Easter.

I can bring paper bags for scrapping trash. No sense taking up space in your cars.

I brought some tablecloths for the scrapping tables, too. I'm sure we've got that covered.

I've also got a Big Shot and dies I'll bring.

Can hardly wait to see you all again!!

Do any of you store your unmounted stamps in CD cases and... if so... do you want some? I've been cleaning my scraproom/former office space... and have dozens of empty ones that I won't need.. but wanted them to go to a good home before tossing them

so just let me know!

A reminder that I will bring stuff along for making those snowflakes. If I have time between now & then I have have stuff pre-cut. Bring along your Hot glue gun if you have one and tombo or other such glue also. I will have the lace & trimmings to go on them.

I'll see if Bonnie will write up some instructions for making the scrubbies since we won't be there. :(

Thinking about what to pack...
I did empty out my tote (from last May) this week. Aren't you proud of me? So far, I've packed paper trimmers for me and Debbie and some rolls of adhesive for my ATG gun. Yep, that's the extent of it so far.
