So....have an idea. Since its getting colder...maybe we should have a CR:U bonfire and roast marshmallows and hot dogs and just hang out. maybe bring hot cocoa (i love that stuff!!!) and then maybe all drive together to some of the haunted places and take a video camera and stuff.....any thoughts??? it would be cheaper than going to dinner.

10-04-2004, 03:47 PM
i think it would be a total fuckin blast....we just have to find a place to do it and i can help set it up. i'd just need another person in CR to actually help do it too. So....yeah. it would be kick ass. ooooo!!! we can bring gloves and blankets and we can cuddle!! bring a cuddle partner! lol....sorry, i get excited about the little things in life. lol

lol...okay i know i'm a dork...but i think it would be sooooo much fun

April
10-04-2004, 06:51 PM
anyway-if people really wanna do this...i can be the head of it. I just need some people to help out with a place...some suggestions. Also, if people wanna donate money to help buy the hotdogs and all the other stuff......
but it should def be a weekend that i can be there.....
Saturdays:
oct 16th
oct 23rd

nov 20th (thats gettin late)

just lemme know

Carlson61588
10-04-2004, 06:58 PM
we should do it. Then someone invite Foxracing and bring a blow up doll for him.

April
10-04-2004, 06:59 PM
lol....that would be horrible. i would not let anyone do it. maybe we should invite him....like seriously

Ashley
10-04-2004, 07:42 PM
how late would this start/go until? if it'd be pretty late.. like.. after 1030/11ish.. then any date would work for me. but if you guys were wanting to do this at like 8 or 9 or something.. i vote for the november date.

Carlson61588
10-04-2004, 07:43 PM
I vote for sometime soon.

April
10-04-2004, 07:50 PM
well we could have the bonfire at like 10 one night....i just wanna make sure enough people are intrested

Ashley
10-04-2004, 07:58 PM
i'd be interested, as long as it would be worth it for me to come after i get off work at 10

Regeneration X
10-04-2004, 08:56 PM
10 is too late....it starts getting dark at 830 now. you want to have people there when its just getting dark so you can set everything up. hang out, then once its dark...you start the bon fire. i have this down...its an art to me

Ashley
10-04-2004, 08:58 PM
well starting it doesn't really matter to me.. what i was asking.. is if people were still going to be hanging out for awhile after 10.

melhoneybee
10-04-2004, 09:00 PM
I wouldn't doubt if people hung around for a long time....and Amanda don't worry abotu hot dogs I got those! just need bread and such.

Wow this statement has such different meanings depending on the gender of the person making it :finga:

melhoneybee
10-04-2004, 09:06 PM
Thanx....I was talking about the hot dogs that are made from pigs and such that are sittin gin my freezer at the locker......

and that almost doesn't sound any better...lol

ZacFields
10-04-2004, 09:30 PM
Excellent idea.

You know I'm always up for haunted places. Who was walking in-front of all ya'll in the woods at 13 steps?

THat was funny when I was pretending like my flashlight was going out and I thought Carlson was going to piss himself.

April
10-04-2004, 09:31 PM
lol....well i guess i dont really care...just whatever

April
10-04-2004, 09:34 PM
lol...i know! you scared me! i hated u when u did that...lol. but yeah....we def need to do this. it might be one of the best ideas I had in a while and soooooooooooo much cheaper

ZacFields
10-04-2004, 09:41 PM
Yeah totally! I'm a huge fan of bonfires because it just seems like you have so much more fun at a bonfire than anything else.

Doing the haunted places thing the same night may or may not work out. That will have to be a "play it by ear" thing because it's really easy to want to stay at the bonfire all night...specailly when it's really cold outside.

April
10-04-2004, 09:43 PM
yeah, i just threw out the idea...but i think the bonfire is waaay better than dinner...you can socialize sooooooooooooo much better than sitting in a resturant at a table, esp when we sat at diffrent tables. i didnt meet anyone new. it sucked

DustinsDuster
10-04-2004, 09:53 PM
if i listen to enough 80's metal before we go to a haunted place, im not gonna be scared of anything. i dont know, somethin about that music just makes me want to kick ass.

Dustin

Carlson61588
10-04-2004, 09:54 PM
Dude i will say it. I am the biggest pussy when it comes to anything involving dark places and woods. Theres no way i'm gonna become someones bitch without some money.

Carlson61588
10-04-2004, 09:55 PM
I say we should have it Oct. 16. its the saturday after this saturday.

Ashley
10-04-2004, 09:56 PM
you're not the biggest pussy. trust me. you didn't cry at the haunted forest. maybe because you didn't go.. but if you did, i'm sure you wouldnt have been as pathetic as i was. lol.

Carlson61588
10-04-2004, 09:58 PM
i would of went but i had to fix my car. Geez i went into the gas station to get coolant and it was $12 for a gug of it.

Ashley
10-04-2004, 10:00 PM
haha you got screwed, it's like $6 at QT.

Carlson61588
10-04-2004, 10:02 PM
shit i didnt pay for it. I made krustin and matt get me some from walmart.

RandomHero
10-04-2004, 10:20 PM
im down for a bonfire, that sounds sweet, im not to keen on the haunted establishments however, im way to high strung for those placed, i go and when i get startled, i get pissed, when i get pissed, people get hurt, and i dont wanna hurt volenteers, id go to hell for sure, last time i went to a haunted house, i hit a grim reaper in the throat, and was asked to leave, it was bad, so no haunted places for me. but definetely a bon fire, i think we should have it at Adams, sounds like a good place to have it, as long as it not on gravel or not alot of gravel, i know a few ppls cars who dont like gravel too much (mine, Bryans, Zacs) but if it is, i can always pile ppl into my gravel slut (84 "Overnight" Celebrity) and carpool to where ever.

April
10-04-2004, 10:42 PM
randomhero...were u at the dinner?

Fate
10-04-2004, 10:48 PM
Hmm

Bonfires are good, but it's all about where they are at and how long it takes for the cops to come break it up. Also if I can bring beer I'll be a "happy camper"

:)

ZacFields
10-04-2004, 10:49 PM
yeah matt was at dinner. He was driving the white eclipse

Haha your such a alki. But I'm up for anything. I can possibly get some money too if needed. Anydate or anytime would work fine. But I need to know in advanced so I can ask off from work and I agree gravel + trans am = made marc when he finds dent.

April
10-05-2004, 12:25 AM
oh.............idk what one hes was.....i wanted to meet him! his pic was hot! lol

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 07:09 AM
dont let them give you crap Fate. i'll get drunk with you, and im sure no one else will since theyre not 21(rolls eyes). getting drunk and rowdy around a big fire sounds like a blast.

Dustin

babygrlkw04
10-05-2004, 07:23 AM
i'm so for the bondfire!! i love those things. i'm also for haunted places if anyone was planning on going back up to 13 steps real soon please let me know, i wasn't able to go last time you all went. i would really like to go before it starts to snows and when were you guys planning on having the bonfire? is there a set date and place yet?

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 07:31 AM
i wonder if Kristin would do me the favor of cuddling with me?

Dustin

April
10-05-2004, 08:04 AM
okay......this is where we need to vote....what day do u wanna have the bonfire??

October 16th
October 23rd

my vote....october 23rd

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 08:08 AM
The cops wont break up a bon fire if you are out of city limits....I mean shit thats what we use to do every saturday nigth after swisher, drank till 4 in the morning...it was awesome...

And dustin I'm all about the drinking under 21 as long as I'm not in a public place!

babygrlkw04
10-05-2004, 08:14 AM
dustin of course hun, but if this bonfire is going to happen i need to know what day so i can get that night off of work. i think that we all will have a blast!

Fate
10-05-2004, 08:15 AM
okay......this is where we need to vote....what day do u wanna have the bonfire??

October 16th
October 23rd

my vote....october 23rd

Umm 16th :)

Girlfriend and I have plans the 23rd lol

ZacFields
10-05-2004, 09:41 AM
I vote the 23rd but only becuase it's easier for everyone to get the day off work the farther it is in advance.

ZacFields
10-05-2004, 09:45 AM
BTW I am a non-drinker. I don't mind being around people who are drinking....but I don't drink. As far as the drinking goes though, we'll have to find out where we're doing this. If Regen wants to do it at his house I would doubt if you guys would be allowed to bring alcohol.

We'll just have to see.

Carlson61588
10-05-2004, 10:21 AM
i say Oct. 16

RandomHero
10-05-2004, 11:27 AM
23rd

ZacFields
10-05-2004, 11:41 AM
I'd still say 23rd. The turnout will be wayyyy better because we'll have more time to get the word out and those of us who have jobs will find it easier to get a day off on the 23rd which is like 3 weeks away than the 16th which is 2.

April
10-05-2004, 11:58 AM
yeah...i'm gonna say the 23rd...it would be much easier for me cause i was already planning on coming home that weekend. about drinking, i'm sure all of you know i'm a big drinker and i'm not 21 but i have a feeling that maybe drinking at this bonfire wouldnt be such a hot idea.......but i am soooo glad yall wanna do this. its gonna be such a blast

Ashley
10-05-2004, 01:55 PM
i say 23rd.. i forgot i'll be out of town the 16th. so if you guys have it the 16th.. screw you. lol. kidding. but yeah. i vote 23rd.

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 05:19 PM
i'll come to either one, i dont care which day its at. it would kind of suck if we couldnt drink, but id still show up. where else could it be besides Adam's house? any suggestions?

Dustin

April
10-05-2004, 05:30 PM
i have no clue where else we could do it...unless someone else has some property or knows someone that would let us use their yard.....are there ay parks where u can do it> we used to do it at bever park all the time

Deathinnovember
10-05-2004, 05:53 PM
BTW I am a non-drinker. I don't mind being around people who are drinking....but I don't drink. As far as the drinking goes though.

ditto ...I don't really mind when it is ... but I need to know pretty soon so I can ask off.

April
10-05-2004, 05:56 PM
It looks like we'll plan for the 26th of october...next task....finding a spot

Carlson61588
10-05-2004, 08:27 PM
It looks like we'll plan for the 26th of october...next task....finding a spot23rd not the 26th

Carlson61588
10-05-2004, 08:28 PM
All city parks close at 10 so that narrows it down.

April
10-05-2004, 08:46 PM
yeah...sorry, i meant the 23rd...my bad

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 08:46 PM
i have a cabin....that we could all pitch a tent and stay....its on private property and you need a key to get back there....only problem....its in Mt Auburn....which is like in between Vinton and LaPorte City....so it would be closer for some people (Rabbit and Amanda) but if we could stay up there...meet at my moms house...and just car pool up there...cause Parking is limited.....it would work out great.....

We could even have a car thats not planning on staying.... But thats totally up for grabs....

Good Points....No cops....Camping....beinging as loud as you want.....no bothering ANYONE...but maybe a few deer. Lemme know

April
10-05-2004, 08:48 PM
that could be really awesome. i'd be for it

ZacFields
10-05-2004, 09:50 PM
Good idea for anyone interested...but I'd really not be interested in going so far away to freeze myself in a tent all night. hehe.

I'm out on that one..but that doesn't mean you still shouldn't do it.

Zac

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 09:59 PM
you wouldn't be freezing in the tent all night...hehe...just after the bon fire...and its not THAT far away...i mean from CR a good hour drive....but you know me im not a townie so driving 70 miles isn't that hard for me.

Ashley
10-05-2004, 10:04 PM
Good idea for anyone interested...but I'd really not be interested in going so far away to freeze myself in a tent all night. hehe.

I'm out on that one..but that doesn't mean you still shouldn't do it.

Zac

haha. if you go, i go. and then you wouldn't be cold. body heat is key when you're camping and it's cold. =P lol.

April
10-05-2004, 10:17 PM
we dont have to do that.....its just an option

Ashley
10-05-2004, 10:20 PM
yeah. but. what other option is there at this point? lol.

April
10-05-2004, 10:52 PM
i am not sure. but i dont want peoples reason not to go is that its too far.

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 10:56 PM
ya...i was jsut saying thats what i have to offer

ZacFields
10-05-2004, 11:01 PM
I'm only speaking for myself though. There might be others that would be more interested than I am.

Don't let me shoot you down.

Zac

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 11:02 PM
camping would there would be cool. i could get way drunk. i say we all sleep in one big tent, than we could all stay warmer. i might even bring one of my dogs with if that was ok with Mel. i'll let you guys know about that.

Dustin

Ashley
10-05-2004, 11:03 PM
.. does anyone even have a tent that could hold a lot of people?

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 11:03 PM
hey guys.....there is a cabin there too...lol....its just a one room shack thing...but we can stay in the building also!...lol...and Dustin we take the dogs out there ALL the time!

ZacFields
10-05-2004, 11:05 PM
.. does anyone even have a tent that could hold a lot of people?

Why are you even talking? You're not even going. Don't post whore on a topic that doesn't even pertain to you.

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 11:05 PM
i might be able to barrow a BIG tent, but thats a maybe, its my friend Bill's parents. i just wanted to make sure it was cool to bring Pac Mel, just checking.

Dustin

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 11:08 PM
yeah but like i said sleeping in the cabin is totally acceptable...and what not

Fate
10-05-2004, 11:30 PM
Well whatever happens happens I guess. 16th or the 23rd. Not sure if I'll make it out, but I'll try to. Make sure we have some definite plans and places to go chill though.

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 11:32 PM
you gotta try to make it Fate, i want to have someone who will drink with me for sure. it seems were the legal drunks of the site, so so be it. lets rock it.

Dustin

April
10-05-2004, 11:33 PM
it would awesome to sleep in a tent all together and have to try and stay warm

DustinsDuster
10-05-2004, 11:36 PM
it would awesome to sleep in a tent all together and have to try and stay warm

thats what i was thinking. if we were all together in one place, we could probably stay pretty warm. that was the plan anyway.

Dustin

melhoneybee
10-05-2004, 11:36 PM
The cabin is a little bigger we could easily fit 15 people with room to spare...and 20 if we were allowed to touch...lol

Rabbit
10-05-2004, 11:53 PM
i could be there i suppose... lol

Fate
10-05-2004, 11:57 PM
Well the 23rd my girlfriend is coming down and well, it's her birthday weekend and we have to spend time out for that, and then you know. So yeah it'll be tough to see if we can come out, let alone WE can come out.

DustinsDuster
10-06-2004, 07:11 AM
im not sleeping next to Rabbit or Jake if he comes. dont want them to get confused in the dark and put some moves on me.

Dustin

April
10-06-2004, 08:49 AM
lol. thats prolly a good idea dustin. i dont care who i sleep next too....unless its jake....hes a meanie.

Rabbit
10-06-2004, 10:44 AM
jeez no one likes me :Hangman: lol

10-06-2004, 10:48 AM
i like you rabbit............and id share a tent with ya or whatever

Rabbit
10-06-2004, 10:50 AM
aww thanks angel :partyman: idk if i'd recommend it right now though... i'm on antibiotics for the next 10 days :vom:

melhoneybee
10-06-2004, 10:56 AM
well lemme know if we need it or not i would need to talk to my dad....and i think there is a heater in the cabin also...so no freezing....lol

ZacFields
10-06-2004, 11:10 AM
eh...I'm just not really into the idea really. No offense. I'm not liking the idea of going an hour away to do this. I would imagine the amount of people who would go would be limited just due to the distance and the fact that if you don't sleep there you'de have to drive an hour to get home in the middle of the night. I could possibly get that saturday off but I would need to come back to work Sunday morning at 8am, so this just won't work out for me.

Thats okay tho...I'll catch the next one. ;-)

April
10-06-2004, 02:03 PM
okay question........
who would drive out to the cabin? would that stop some of you from coming?

Carlson61588
10-06-2004, 02:38 PM
i wouldnt go if i had to drive an hour. Cause i would prolly have to work the next morning. I think we should just find somewhere to do it close to town.

April
10-06-2004, 02:54 PM
i'd rather do it closer to CR (surprise) cause im gonna be down there that weekend to go to my bf football game and i wasnt gonna go back to CF till sunday night....so more driving for me

ZacFields
10-06-2004, 02:55 PM
Driving isn't the issue. I've got gas money and such. Just for me, given all the pro's and con's, it's not worth an hour long trip.

Pro's:
-Good fun
-Roasted Marshmallows and hot dogs and such
-watching other people get drunk

Con's:
-Hour long drive (whether I'm driving or riding in another person's car)
-Probably less than 10 people in attendance (we only got 17 people to come to the dinner in CR...I would foresee half the showup at a place that's an hour away)
-Probably have to work at 8am the next morning...so would have to find my way home in the middle of the night and would only get like 3 or 4 hours of sleep before work.

Those are just my top 3 pros and cons of it. Like I've said though, I'm not trying to get anyone to change plans. I'm just saying that I cannot make it.

April
10-06-2004, 03:03 PM
Adam- can we have it at ur house saturday the 23rd?

Ashley
10-06-2004, 03:13 PM
i thought adam's place was always a good idea.. but once someone said something about possibly no alcohol at adams, it seemed like everyone changed their minds. personally, since i dont drink, i dont think the presence of alcohol should be the deciding factor lol. because yah, i'm with zac.. i dont want to drive an hour away. here in CR would be better -- there's no way i could be out real late and then drive an hour to get home in the middle of the night.

DustinsDuster
10-06-2004, 07:19 PM
im gonna go regardless, but i still want to drink with the group. weve all hung out and talked and ate together before, but never been in a party atmosphere. just somethin i wanted to do.

Dustin

April
10-06-2004, 07:24 PM
yeah, i agree we should do that sometime...but i think for now, we should just do the bonfire like orginally planned

Carlson61588
10-06-2004, 07:30 PM
Theres a new guy on here name "Stealth" that live in atkins i think and he said we could have at his barn there.

April
10-06-2004, 07:31 PM
how far away is atkins??

DustinsDuster
10-06-2004, 07:34 PM
not Atkins, WATKINS. up hiway 30 twards Ames about 20 minutes or so, or at least so i thought.

Dustin

Ashley
10-06-2004, 07:35 PM
it's about 13-14 miles northwest of cedar rapids. a little bit east of newhall.

Stealth
10-06-2004, 07:41 PM
I would have to talk to my mom but if i could have it at my place there could be alcohol but im gonna have to work every sat all deer season so i wouldnt be able to have it till 10 or 11, its only like 15-20 min away from cr so if wouldnt be a very long drive

Stealth
10-06-2004, 07:44 PM
and it is on bout a mile of gravel so i dont know if that would be a problem for some people or not, lots of trucks drive my road so there are usually good tracks so if u go slow you should only get ur car dirty

Ashley
10-06-2004, 07:45 PM
oh. watkins. not atkins. well watkins is southwest of CR. south of newhall. april it'd be about an hour 10 minutes drive for you, i'd bet, or somewhere around there.

DustinsDuster
10-06-2004, 07:55 PM
maybe we could just go to Wapeketa campgrounds out in Central City. not totally sure how big of bond fire we could make, the firepits are just 55 gallon drums burried in the ground, but we could drink there, and this time of yeah, theres not many people out there, so we could probably be pretty loud. Central City is pretty close, less than 10 minutes up highway13 from my house, and to get to the campground are only 1 turn off of the highway.

Dustin

lil krumm
10-06-2004, 08:28 PM
if you guys dont want cops to bother you thenyour gonna have to drive on gravel. thers no way around that one. cops travel all paved roads. gravel its like once a month they go down them and that during the day.

Deathinnovember
10-06-2004, 09:57 PM
I would love to go ... but I'm not sure. If it's to far outta the way it's not worth going because I don't know anyone there and I don't know how to get to ANYWHERE. outside of iowa city and muscatine.

you might see DNR at Wapeketa once or maybe twice all night, but thats it. its also only a 1/4 mile off of the highway, and theres not really any gravels roads, unless you consider the paths running through the camp grounds gravel roads. let me know if you guys are interested, i'll make sure theyre still open.

Newhall is like 20 mins from CR...and watkins is like 10 Mins form newhall..so its more like a half hour...but that works.....Central City is like a hour for me....

Amanda there is a faster way to get to watkins from CF then driving through CR....but hey just keep me posted then.

ok...well, im all about drinking..as well as my gf...no need for comments on that ashley. and i have bonfires all the time at my house...but my parents get really pissed about the alky, so it doesnt work at my place anymore..and since last time i was down by the shooting range i almost got shot(and i wasnt that close to the rage-nor did it have anything to do with the range) so i stay away from that area now, and thers a lot of cops. so...Matt and i have a few places i'll talk to him and we can figure some stuff out.

i think we should ditch the drinking idea and just hang out...its really hard to plan this when people have waaay too many ideas.
So. no drinking at the bonfire....that would leave more options open....or.....drinking and fewer options. i really dont know

i'll just bring a flask for us. i dont know what the big deal is with haunted houses/hay rides, all of it. i have never much been into them. i just dont get it.

Eh, that's normal Dustin.

Some people are into ghosts, aliens, and the paranormal, and some people aren't. That's really all there is to it.

It just seems like a "big deal" since (I would be willing to bet) the majority of the population is interested in the paranormal.

But like I said....some people aren't. It's kindof a love it or hate it thing I think.

yeah totally, im new to the area, but i live on about 180 acres with shit loads of empty space, and theres an old psycho ward thats been abandoned about three miles from my house, they got a bunch of scary ass shit in there like the shock treatment room and hydrotherapy, and the cool thing is, its right next to a shut-down meat locker. stainless metal hooks, dried blood on the floor. makes for a good story lol!

10-08-2004, 06:21 AM
see, the thing is, id say i am pretty intrested in the paranormal. there are forces at work that many arent willing to acknowledge or think about. i just dont see the point of the haunted hay rides and such. just doesnt strike my fancy. although i will admit that my intrest peaked when Prizm here mentioned the old abandoned pyschotic ward. itd be pretty cool to get a camera and walk around that place. anyone else up for it?

ill go check it out, i know it used to be open but i think a bunch of cops chained it up big time when five kids got gruesomely murdered there.... just kidding, anyway, i really think they did lock it up..(think some guys were making meth down there so now the urbana police make weekly trips to the ward, but i dont think that they go on weekends! Props!

there's only one place to have good bonfires, my house, no alki allowed, but ask anyone, no one has better fires.

most require 3-4 gallons of start up fluid, and to keep from getting burned you need to sit at least 6 ft away.

idk man...ive had some monstrous ones. If you use diesel fuel it gets goin alright, but if you use gasoline...man thats awesome. Im not a big fan of lighter fluid...its either gas or dies. I have huge logs and stuff that I could supply if we dont do it at my house.


And also, im up for that psych0 ward.... my camera has night vision also :)

You don't understand...this was a small fire we had during the day when we were bored and needed to get rid of some car parts. We only used like 2 gallons of our super secret startup mixture.

when did we agree on the 23rd? you cant just go and start making plans with out checking with everyone first...

find out what is best for EVERYONE not just one person.

krustin...thats a pussy fire...too much smoke anyways...yours is wide, not tall

Ive had flames about 15-20 ft high at least. AND you can still be next to it. Ive got it down to a system, like i said before. I usually have an annual bonfire for my class, but this year I decided not to because of all the kids wanting to drink rather than hang out.

ok.. i like the 23rd. but if we wind up doing it at adam's house.. i think he gets the final say as to when it is. lol. y'all are right, you cant plan around one person.. but when that one person is the one who is willing to accomodate the 20-25 other people, then yes you do have to plan around that person.

first off...you dont want to do it so soon. you guys planned that too quickly. you need to take time and to make sure everything is worked out right. The 23rd is in two weeks. I cant do it because of football. I say make it for mid november. or beginning. There wont be snow, and with a big enough fire, we can all stay warm.

I didn't realize we said we were going to have it at Adam's.....but if it was there....then it would be up to him...lol

I think we could pull it off in two weeks....at gatherings and stuff people have been pretty good about it, as long as someone is like hey here at this time...then if you come you come if you dont you dont....there will be other times too!

yeah adam that wasnt bitching...whatever. I dont think two weeks wasa short time...it was a little over two weeks I think and we should be able to plan something as simple as a bonfire in that amount of time. Also, I never knew that we were supposedto have it at Adam's house, I asked him a few times and he always said that he didn't know.

We're doing it at Krustin's house.

NO MORE BITCHING.

It will be the 23rd of October (as long as that's cool with Krustin.) There are a lot of people coming to this and we can NOT schedule around everyone's plans.

If you can't make it, then dont' come. Simple as that. Amanda has been trying to get input on this for a week or more now and she can't finalize plans because everyone wants to whine and complain. Then when she sets a date, we're all of a sudden trying to set a date that would work for 20-25 people? It doesn't work that way.
