Ivan, SERIOUSLY do what you can to go to these. The coolest part about a member meeting is that you're meeting all these people for the first time, but you're talking to them like you've known them for years!

Jeff, you didn't disappoint with GilFest ® I last year, I think everyone will have an even better time this year!

Actually it was at Ken Joseph's house over by Detroit. Ken did indeed do a wonderful time and no one was disappointed. :wink:

PM sent. I'm cool with anytime, but since some are coming from a long distance it's really up to them.

I guess that we would like to return while there is still light so we could enjoy the flight on the way back too. How long is the trip for those of us who travel on ground? can we meet around 12 or 11AM? this will leave us time to "play around" before having a late lunch (we could continue after lunch I guess, up to you guys).
If evening is better for some - we can do it later too, really.

Ronbo: Just saw that you said you are coming, that would be great and you can't take it back now ;)
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Almost forgot to mention:
Kareene will NOT be able to join me. Her sister who live in L.A. is visiting her parents as well and she has only a few days with her.
Sorry :(

Jen can't make it. Sunday our horse vet is making her 1st visit and rescheduling would be a problem.

Its 308 Miles from my house in Hometown (Tamaqua) PA. My dad is pulling the "needs to work on the house" line with me, so I still have my mom (One of the newfound benefits of divorced parents :D )
Still working hard to do this tough :mrgreen:

Pre- GilFest ® II festivities started today. A trip to Motor City Guitar seemed appropriate.

I'm actually considering that if my mom says no, (I don't think she'd like the idea of it though.

11 or 12 would be great. Since we live out in the country and there aren't may big towns around, I thought we could do pizzas (or maybe grill something if the weather is nice)

Gil, Do you need a ride from the airport? Who else is flying in with you?

Thanks!

Thanks, sounds good for upcoming confluences (my inlaws are supposed to come back to Israel but they were supposed to do it over a year ago, I suspect that they will stay in Michigan for another year so I'll be here again next year)
So long and thanks for all the fish!
