Larry:
This sounds like a great time! I sure wish I was within driving distance;
I'd love to attend. I hope you all have fun and I look forward to hearing
about it!
Parker
P.S. Very wise suggestion re staying away from religion and politics. Keep
it FUN.

You are invited to the first ever
"New Moon Mothing and Beer Tasting at the Farm" event.
When: Monday 1/23/12 at 5:45 pm. (it's fine to show up late).
Where: Janet and Larry's farm house at
1381 Old Boones Creek Rd. Jonesborough, TN 37659
What: We will sample good and/or unusual beers (no getting drunk),
check moth sheets and have a friendly chat about moths and mothing,
other insects or anything about nature. No politics or religion
unless someone wants to.
Why: Why 1/23? That is the date of the new moon. In fact it's the date for
the New Lunar Year.
Why the new moon? Data indicates that moths are attracted to lights more
during the new moon.
Why 5:45 pm? That's sunset in Johnson City/ Jonesborough.
Who: I sent this e-mail to people I thought might be interested.
I included tn-moths and ncsc-moths mostly just to share the idea with other
moth-ers
and of course to extend the invitation.
Truth is, I don't really expect many to come to the
first ever "New Moon Mothing and Beer Tasting at the Farm" event.
After all, it is January. But I intend to have this on most if not all the
new moon dates
through out the rest of the year and possibly beyond.
The main emphasis is to have fun.
If you come, bring one or two beers you would like share
as samplers in small glasses which I will provide.
We'll see where this goes from here.
Please let me know if you are planning on, or even considering comming.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Larry
