Frybabies

[Pat Kelly]

On the 2nd Saturday of August, a bunch of us are taking a road trip to FryBabies in PA.
Some people will car pool and others will just meet us up there. Right now, the plan is to meet at FryBabies at 11am.
The address is:
562 Ebelhare Road
Pottstown, Pa 19465

So if you are going and can take others with you. Lets start a discussion right here.

Where are you?

How many can you take?

Where to meet to pick people up?

Who needs a ride and from where?

Remember that she has a ton of fish in stock plus can get a lot more if you order it in advance.
See the latest list that Sarah posted in the Members Discussion area. This are the items she can order. Not what she has in stock. No list for that. Look it over and order. Please make sure you want the fish that you order. This in not a full time job for her and she is not open to the public. Just us because she likes Sarah. lol

I would like a list also, of who is going so I can make sure every one makes it.
I know Tracey and I, Francine, Bill and Sarah.
I hope we have a big turn out. Our last outing was only 6 of us. Not good.


I am looking over the list now and plan on purchasing a few things. Don't tell Tray.......

You can start a thread in the community section about that if you want to give more information on it.
It's allowed. You are one of our famous members after all. lol

I was one of the original members interested in doing the trip. In fact, I offered my van to carry some folks up. Since then, I have another commitment later that afternoon. So I will have to be back in Baltimore by aroun 4:00 pm. With that said, I am still interested in making the trip. However, I need the flexibility to leave at a time that will get me back to Baltimore promptly. I was thinking about leaving home early and be one of the early arrivals, and return early too. So, I'm sorry to back off of my original offer to carpool some folks. But it's my best friends surprise 60 birthday party that came up.

 

[longstocking]

I'll be up there with Bill and his daughter Friday night and staying the whole weekend. So, I won't be able to carpool with anyone.

The directions on map quest are simple and correct.

Hope to see a lot of you up there.

Best friends b-days are a bit more important lol.... but the timing should work out fine Bobby. If you leave by 2:00 you should have plenty of time. That gives you 3 hours to play lol.

I was talking to Julie today, which just makes me want to join the trip to visit her even more. I can't drive because of the new pain medications I'm taking, for some reason my doctors and wife don't want me driving stuffed to the gills with narcotics, go figure :beamup: . Anyway I would really like to share a ride.
Thanks,
Daniel

Only a week away.

Love to help you out, but unfortunately I can't make the trip. Saturday is my annual rockfish charter on the Bay.

 

[longstocking]

Tomorrow night is the last day to pre-order fish for the field trip. She has many more fish available (about 300 tanks worth) but this is what she can order in for us.

[Pat Kelly]

Daniel, Mike M called me looking for your phone number.

 

[longstocking]

I'll be leaving in a few hours. See you all up there !

If you get lost for some reason.... her number is 610-495-9254

 

[Pat Kelly]

On the way

 

[Pat Kelly]

You all missed a great trip.
Nice drive in the country.
Lots of fish.
Good people.
and lunch too.

Counting Sarah and Bill there were 10 of us.

And not very far. Compared to the Pittsburgh day trip we took a few years back.

 

[Charlutz]

Was a great trip. Thanks Julie! And thanks Sarah for picking out my M/F gobies and bristlenoses. Nothing like having a room full of experts to advise on fish purchases! All home safe.

 

[phishphorphun]

It was a nice day for sure. I only wish I could have stayed a little longer. Julie was a great hostess and Bill served as chef and made sure we had plenty of burgers to eat.

And, got to see a lot of neat fish too.

A day trip within a two hour drive is perfect. We should try a few more next summer.

 

[phishphorphun]

Didn't take many photos today. But Bill provided us with an interesting insect oppurtunity.

Still not sure what was going on. The spider and the bee were devouring each other on his windshield.

The only fish photo was an attempt to get the salousi that someone was looking for. No luck though. This is the result of Pat holding a flashlight and remote speedflash, while I was trying to focus on a subject.

Sorry for the poor result.

 

[daniel4832]

While my back is killing me today :smashfreakB: and I won't be walking upright for next couple of days , it was completely worth it. What a great day, Jen thanks for the ride, and to those others who offered. Bill thanks for the hamburgers and the cool diving stories. Sarah thanks for leaving me a couple of fish to get . And Julie thanks for opening up your house and fishrooms to us, what a great way to spend the day.
I hope we can do this again!
Thanks,
Daniel

 

[maddog10]

Sounds like I missed a great time. I made all of my guys come in and work Saturday, so I had to go in and keep them motivated (didn't seem right for them to work and me to play).

 

[knuckles]

It was such a nice trip - I really hope there's a "next time"!

Thanks so much to Julie for allowing us to visit .... and for the "extra" directions (that last mile was a killer! :smashfreakB: )

It was great to see so many cool fish in one place - AND to be able to get 'expert' advice right on the spot! The only problem is now I'm aware of even MORE fish I'm going to need some day .... :angel2:

By the way, that picture of the bee and spider is fuel for some SERIOUS nightmares. :unsure:

 

[longstocking]

Well... the bird REALLY misses Tracey !!!!! I guess Melissa is sad today from what Julie said

Julie loved having you all up at her place. Talking and spending time with people that have the same things in common is one of her fav. things to do !

Hope you all are enjoying the fish you picked up. I know I am ! Many more sifters are in my tank !!! I think I picked up WAY too many !!!
