I'm in.... just sent my email to you and Carol. This is going to be so much fun!

Thanks,
Donna in Florida

SusieRose has added a new word to my vocabulary that will forever mean the GJ Forum to me. Way to go Susie! GARDYLOOOOOOO - HOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Gonna email Kirk to sign up for the Summer Junk Jamboree, it's will be lots of fun!

Advantages of the summer timing:
1. Lots of garage sales, flea markets, etc this time of year to find something extra cool for our recipient.
2. We aren't so busy with the Christmas season, less hussle & bussle in the summer.

Gardyloo y'all ~tenderlee

Hopefully my "snail mail" carrier, 'Ol Three Tooth' will be on vacation. He bought a Hybrid that runs on sweat. Maybe they will transfer Smicker down here to help out!!!!!

SUMMER JUNK JAMBOREE is BLASTING OFF!!!!!!!!

Hubs wants to start posting so he can be "IN" too. He plans to mail a bowling ball to somebody. tee hee First he'll have to set up his own account as "JOINED AT THE HIP". He tried to use his work email address but it would not work. He is totally my partner in Junk Crimes so we will try a Yahoo Account.

GARDYLOO TO YOU TOO!!!!

Susie and Da Man- Hubs

GARDYLOO EVERYONE! (Doesn't that sound like a cross between GARDEN and HELLO?! I love it!)

Susie, I hope your hubby is able to sign up for the forum. We signed Carol up through my work e-mail. Hoping to see another DH on the forum!!! :o)

7 people have signed up so far for The Summer Junk Jamboree, and I know the number will grow! Every time I opened our e-mail today, someone else signed up. THIS IS GOING TO BE SO MUCH FUN...like tennesseetrash said, it will be more relaxed than the Secret Santa Exchange, because we aren't competing with the busyness of the holidays and there are so many garage sales in the summer! Our family lives for garage sales!!!!

Keep signing up, everyone! GardyLoo! Bear Hugs! Kirk

I sent my email! I am really looking forward to this. It will be more fun than the Santa Exchange because, like everyone has mentioned, there is less stress during the summer months vs. Christmas time and we can use what we get right away. Plus it is easier to find garden related stuff or cool junk at thrift stores and rummage sales that time of year too.

Thanks Kirk and Carol for being so sweet to organize this fun event. You two are awesome!

Gardyloo!
Summer Junk Jamboree-er,
Kathy

Couldn't be in the Santa Exchange but this should be a lot of fun! I am emailing you my mailing address

What Fun and Gardyloo!

I'm in! Christmas was so much fun and I know the summer swap will be a blast too. thanks Kirk and Carol for doing this.

19 people have signed up so far for the Summer Junk Jamboree! Yahoo! This will be so much fun!!!!! GardyLoo! Bear Hugs! Kirk & Carol

GardyLoo...just bumping this up as it was moving down the page and would have been bumped off to Page 2. :o) Hope you can join in on the fun in the Summer Junk Jamboree! The more the merrier! Bear Hugs! Kirk and Carol

Count me in like everybody else. Secret Santa was fun, but like everybody else said this one will be so much more fun.
Do to all the garage sales coming up. We live for garage sales around here, and we don't have to wait to open it. Thanks for arranging it once again Kirk and Carol.

This sounds fun but I need to ask some questions first. The gift we send, does it need to be garden ready?? Or can it be something that we can turn into a treasure for our garden? Enquiring minds need to know. LOL Or if we get them cheap enough can it be a combination of the two??
Thanks
Deb

Hey Deb! Hope you can join the fun! :o) Your gift can be pieces for a project or garden ready. That's the fun of it all...whatever works for you. :o) In the past, people have sent pieces for a totem or completed pieces and so many other items. Check out the Secret Santa posts to see the treasures received. As you know, garden junkers are easy to please. WE LOVE JUNK IN ANY FORM! LOL :o) So, junk away! Bear Hugs! Kirk

GardyLoo! 25 people have joined the Summer Junk Jamboree! This is going to be FUN! Keep signing up...you have until April 30th. The more the merrier! Bear Hugs! Kirk

I'm bumping this up for those of you who haven't seen this post. Every time I bump it up, more people sign up for the summer gift exchange. :o) Bear Hugs! Kirk

kathy

bump...keeping this toward the top. The deadline is quickly approaching, Friday, May 1st. Join the fun! Bear Hugs! Kirk

Only two weeks left to sign up. In my first post suggesting the idea, some people said they would like to be included in the summer junk exchange but haven't sent us their information yet. No pressure... we just want to make sure we include everyone who wants to be a part of the summer junk exchange. So, sign up by May 1st...and the junking will begin! This is going to be so much FUN! Bear Hugs! Kirk and Carol

Kirk,
I already know what I want to/am going to make - if I give you an idea about it, can you make sure to match me with someone that would want it??

Can't wait!!!

Kelly Oh, Just let me know what you're thinking, and I'll match you up with someone! :o) This is sooooo much FUN! A week to go for the deadline, and then the FUN begins! GARDYLOO! Bear Hugs! Kirk
