Since the Southeastern, California and New England Applianceville contingents have occasional wash-in parties; I’ve been talking about doing a Northland wash-in party in my basement for Minneapolis-St. Paul and Greater Minnesota Appliancevill’ers for quite some time, so I’ve set a date of Saturday evening, Feb 12th at 8:00pm. We will have lots of clothes washing in the vintage machines (you guys/gals get to choose which ones) and some wine, then we can wash the wine glasses in the see-thru dishwasher of your choice. If you would like to come please email me at [email protected] and I can give you more info.

After all we can't let all those New Englanders get ahead of us Northlanders now can we! :)
 
Hi Les, if you happen to be going to be in MSP that weekend please join us! I don't think it's worth people flying in for a 4 hour party, I just wanted to extend an invitation for people in Applianceville within easy driving distance of the Twin Cities to have an evening get together. I posted this publically because I know there are quite a few members in the area and I don't all their member names.

The real party will be the Convention at Greg's in June, which I'm counting the days to seeing old friends and meeting new friends too!
 
I know I'm looking forward to it; it will be my first event with this group. I'm also trying to plan for the convention in June. That would be great to finally meet everyone.

Sounds like a nice "reunion" ...

Robert, thanks for the invite but I was just teasing you and moaning because I'm so far away from Minnesota but one day I hope I can come up and see you and your fabulous house & machines. In the meantime I look forward to seeing you and everyone at the convention in June.

Wash In Indiana

I would love to host a wash in! BUT, The only problem would be nothing vintage to wash in! Not yet anyway! We could bake a hell of a lot of cookies and bread though! LOL!
 
Sounds Fun!

What a great time you all will have!
It is so cool to be around nice people, with similar interest. That love to talk, and can't shut up. Feel worn out by the end of the day from talking too much about childhood memories and such. It will be a blast!
Take Pictures!

I just returned from this truly delightful event. Special thanks to Robert for hosting and sharing his wonderful collection, and to everyone who came and made it a wonderful night! It was great meeting new people and seeing old friends too!

I am going to post a bar recipe over on the Super forum, that a number of people liked and asked about. I think I made these last year for a gathering Greg had as well. They are very simple to make and always a hit.
 
It was so good to see everyone who was there. AND PARTICULARLY MSJETCONE I thought she had abandoned us. Looks as lovely as she did during the Minnie convention. Robert, I still am adjusting to the new basement. I still mentally see machines arranged in the old basement even though I'm looking at their new home LOL.
 
I rang the bell before seeing a sign Robert had left saying to come to the basement and join the fun. Imagine my delighted surprise when PeterH came to the door! How wonderful it was to see him and Jamie again after nearly 3 years. It was fun that I got to meet Gyrafoam Steve and some other new friends too!
