If I can line up a couch to crash on, I'll make the two and a half hour drive up for this one. Saturday and Sunday traffic is a snap compared with the typical workday snarls. :diver:

I just got back from the WPB show this afternoon; I ducked down to Key Largo Monday morning and sat watching the south trades muck up the close in reefs for a couple of days, then finally gave up and came home. :teeth:

Give me a few days to sift through GA, AL, SC, NC and TN members and email invitations to likely candidates. :P

I am returning from LA that day - flight arrives at 8:36 PM in ATL. Assuming that you folks go until "whenever" then I can probably make part of it. I will still be on west coast time, so should be wide awake by the time I get there. :P

My plan is to be there...gotta also have a place to crash as I'm a wimp for driving...in this case 3+ hrs. (Of course I'm blond and of course I don't know Atlanta very good but basically everything is 3+ hours from me!) LOL!

If KateP is in town she would love to go and I know that Lynne aka greenturtle is also up for a drive! Kate lives in Atlanta and Lynne is in Columbia SC.

I'll see if they can join in as well! Mark are you ready for a harem at your place??? :)

I included Kate aka KateP and Lynn aka greenturtle both in my Charlie email invitation blast. I will update the list with Kamala planning, but Kate and Lynn as possible until we receive confirmation replies from each of them.

Daaannngg Mark, you're gonna have to discount your rates due to overflow occupancy! (And I guess I will be sleeping in my truck... again.) :)

. . . but I have to work on the 30th . . .

No worries - there will be another HH in April.

Just out of curiosity, are Saturdays bad for you or just this particular Saturday?
