I, too, am arriving the morning of the 16th...I may try to arrive a day earlier...but wont know until the day or two before...I really want to crash upon arrival so I can jump on the time zone thing...
The Night before gathering is a Shidoobee gathering...if anyone wants to join the party...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...let me know and I will toss you into the head count.
IF you dont...I do not think it will be the end of the world...simply ask for "The Shidoobee room/party" and you will be OK...
Only condition is that you make sure you seek ME out...I will be there as
Paranoid Android and my Shidoobee moniker,
HeWasHot
...at very least, make sure you say hello to StonesDoug...
This goes for ANYONE on these boards...
As for the day of...I have not heard anything yet...I will post it if anything is arranged.
Myself...I plan on one touristy thing that day then manage to make my way to the show...
I will be meeting up with a friend that afternoon ...if we happen to find a place on the beaten path...we will post it HERE...
But if someone manages to arrange something before that....who knows...If I stumble on a doable location for that afternoon...again...I will post it here...
