VIRTUAL MUSTER NIGHT III: TONIGHT!!! 19:00-22:30 Check in here...

[AFTERMATH]

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:  http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?board=284.0

First allow me to apologize, as I will be absent this evening.  I find myself in bondage to my work schedule.
I will however make an attempt at logging on in an effort to be counted.


Here we lay, a mere six days before the 235th anniversary of the very day America's war for Idependance began.
April 19th, 1775:  I need not inform the majority of you as to the importance of this date.  We know it well, and hold it dear to our hearts.
However, there are MILLIONS of our fellow Americans who have no idea as to the significance of the events that occurred on one fateful day; just a few miles outside of Boston, MA.  Over the last few months hundreds of your fellow Appleseeders have put forth a tremendous effort; with the goal of reintroducing thousands of Americans to their common Heritage over the course of a single weekend:  April 17-18th, 2010. 
Time has flown by at such a rate; we are now only FOUR days from implimenting our great effort and bearing the fruits of our great labor.

New to our program has been the National Muster Nights.  They've proven thus far to be a great success.  It offers us Appleseeders a fantastic chance to get together, if only online.  Allowing us to comunicate in real time and work through issues, as well as formulating ideas.
We've decided to do one more before this weekend; in order to get ready for Appleseed's Biggest weekend ever.
All who participate this coming weekend should find that they are embarking upon a new page in history.  Not only to read it.  Nor to be a part of it.  But to partake in the writing of it.  We are making history; and taking Appleseed with us!
So, please check in with your fellow Minnesotans.  Check in on the National muster thread above.  Also, log on to the Appleseed radio show:  http://www.blogtalkradio.com/appleseedradio  Sign up for an account and chat live with your fellow Appleseeders.
Make your final preparations for this coming weekend.  Find out what you can do to help.  And send a last huzza! to your friends before they head to their respective Appleseeds.

My friends, I only wish I could join you in this gathering; but alas circumstances beyond my practical control forbid it.  I shall be with you in spirit.
I will be there on the Trail this weekend, however.  Those who will be in Duluth; I anxiously await our reunion/introduction. 
For the rest of you I shall bid you my best wishes and may Providence be with you and yours this weekend.

Let's Roll.

Hey Aftermath!  The weather is going to be perfect in Duluth and we are going to be camping right on site.  Tis going to be a GREAT Appleseed!  My dad - 72 - is coming to check whether he still has his eagle-eye.   He's got the white hair and will make a fine Dangerous Old Man

Checking in on my way to an event political.  At Famous Dave's in Uptown, hanging with the rebellious 5th CD Republicans, we passed a secessionist plank to the platform on Saturday, that should gain some interest from the powers that be

It's too bad you can't make it....  So close to home and all...
I'd suppose that you're busy getting one set, up there!

That's a better reason than mine.  Send him my congratulations.  And good luck in Elk River!
