Time to start the countdown

[jdolb1]

Hey it ain't really hot here
On way down I hit 120 in Needles--now that is hot!
Getting closer and closer and drove from 120 miles west into Tucson today and it was thunder, wind and rain. After I pulled off the road due to excessive wind and pouring rain, I start shouting YES! YES! My travel companion gave me a some what odd look
10 x Anette and Di excitement and I am there.
See ya all in a day or two.

Yippie! I can't tell you all how excited we all are here at Ken The Bug Guy's House! We couldn't make it last year since our little baby girl was due the same weekend but this year the fam is all coming and we can't wait. Ken and the van leave tomorrow for the long drive to Arizona.....and the baby and I get to fly

Is anyone sticking around for the S.A.S.I. Conference?

Well perhaps the little spidey gods may come to my rescue. They are having problems out at the rig so it might just work out I could get down there for Thursday to Saturday ! It definitely looks like Thursday and Friday are a lock for me for days off. If I can get down untill Saturday afternoon I'm all over it. I will know tomorrow morning.

Keep the spinerettes crossed for me guys!

WOOO HOOO! Have I said that yet? Landing on Thursday in Tucson at 10:05 am... WOOOO HOOOO!!! I'm bringing my swimsuit, all you suckers crawling around out in the desert can eat your hearts out, I'll be in the pool waiting for you to get back from your excursions!!

Just out of curiosity - How many people are signed up so far for the conference? I know I talked to someone this evening who was planning to attend but hadn't pre-registered, but do most attendees pre-register? Any estimates yet on how well attended this will be compared to other years?

Yes he is!
At the same time I'm almost jealous that they will be half way there while I'm still waaaaaaaaiting to leave at home! They are going to get there before me too

But I guess that means I won't have to unload either....I shouldn't whine...

[geopet]

Well it's a no go for me. The timing is just too uncertain for me to be able to chance it. It bites because last weekend was free and the following weekend will be free. So be safe and have fun everyone.

Gosh darn it Martin! Maybe something will change and you will be able to make it. Never say no.

Me and the grandson Kaden are all packed and headed out the door here in about 10 minutes. Megan and Garrett will be staying home this time.

The excitement is really starting to build. Only have one small concern; Kaden has never been on an airplane before and he's a bit nervous.

Best of luck to all of us, hope we all have stress free safe travel.

See ya!!!
