| OK. Mrs. V says she will make it happen. So I'm in for 2. But I'm gonna have to pass on the golf.
How many people are going to need hotel rooms? Might be worth trying to get a group rate. | | | Beta testing a new signature. | |

| Jimmy, I don't have great hopes for a group rate. We tried that for last Summer's June 15th dinner and two hotels contacted actually had higher rates for groups than for individual bookings. The people who got the best rate used Priceline. | | | |

| Board-O is correct. I suggest using Priceline.com.
I certainly hope that some of our West Coast forumites can attend. Davidn, Bressler, GATC, Eric White, Jones, mountainman, skwid, winebrat, Pinot Envy, TBird, GA, etc. Step right up. Don't be shy.

| AI... IIRC, when Board-O got back from vacation, he was around too... around 17 pounds heavier.  I'll bet he's said goodbye to most of it already!   | | | |
