Ok guys,
I was just looking at these threads making sure I have dates down correctly. I want to know if anyone else is seeing what I am!?!?!?
The get-together date is 7/14 - 7/17 and one week later is the convention 7/21 - 7/23. THESE 2 events are 1 week apart!!!!
I am trying to plan out what if I can go to both or either one of these events and 2 in one week is a bit MUCH!!!
Any other thoughts?!?!

Well, I can do Pittsburgh in two weeks - I just found out today that I have to be there for work at the end of the month. Can anyone else make it? LOL  Dang, Pittsburgh wouldn't have been my first choice of cities to visit twice in one year!! Jessie |

Connie~
Yes, it's true. When I posted the 14-17th as a possible get together date, I mentioned that it was the weekend before the conference. I'm taking one full week off work, so that includes 2 weekends, making it ok for us to go to both. BUT, I totally understand that not everyone lives right in the middle of both places like we do, and it might not be as easy for everyone to do both weekends. I totally understand if a different date needs to be chosen for the Uno Mas get together.

OK.. this is my personal observation from someone who might not make it to this shindig... I personally have never seen a date work SO WELL for SO MANY families here! I know it is a crunch for those like me who want to do the Atlanta thing.. but I think I am in the minority.. and Susan is closer and can do both trips easier. I don't think there are many that are doing or trying to do both trips... This date you all picked.. is PERFECT if you ask me.. and I am saying that knowing I probably won't be there. In the past.. picking a date and place has become so much of a chore no one wants to be the date picker and place picker.. so I was VERY happy and impressed how well everyone was "ok" with that date! There are going to always be someone that can't make it.. but I have never seen it work THIS well!!!!! And we've been doing this for years!!! I say leave the date.. I mean.. think about it.. there is other dates but then more people can't make it.. or you then risk waiting all the way to Labor Day for everyone to gettogether.. and who knows if others already have Labor Day weekend plans? KWIM? I have mentioned all of this to Susan the other day and again last night.. and as much as I would love for the date to be changed.. it would be for VERY VERY Selfish reasons LOL.. and I say just leave the date!

ok GUYS!!!
I was not trying to get the date changed I was just pointing that out....I felt like I was loosing my mind because I didn't notice that.
With all my brain cells that involve the conference and get-together now functioning together I can make a decession...not a compitant one just ONE!!!

LOL A. - I didn't reply to your post because I really wasn't sure what you were asking me! LOL  Suzi - got your e-mail. I will be in town on the 28th - unfortunately I am just flying in and out that day (will be at Allegheny General Hospital). However, with my luck with traveling I will most likely get stuck there (I will carry my toothbrush and other necessities just in case - LOL). I will keep your number with me in case I end up having to stay, but it would be a last minute thing. Thank you so much, it's nice to have someone to go to lunch or dinner with when I'm traveling! Oh - speaking of traveling - I hit the jackpot - one of my new accounts is Tyco . . . in Bloomington, MN . . . home of THE MALL OF AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hmmmm, wonder why my boss gave me that one?!!! hee hee hee Brian wasn't too thrilled with that! Jessie |
