SO glad I love the show and that song.
Ditto.
And if F2F winds up in July, I may have to not go *sob* since RWA Nationals is in July. We're also planning a family trip for Nate's thirteenth birthday next summer.
Of course, I'm thisclose to bailing on Nationals anyway since I'm in a very "don' wanna" sort of mood. Bailed on a conference this weekend too.
I would dearly love a Seattle or Portland (seems like Portland is cheaper once you're there, but more expensive to actually get to, right?) F2F next year.
I love camping, but I usually camp to get away from people, not spend time with 'em. ;)

Whereas my idea of roughing it is when they don't leave a chocolate on the pillow.

Barb's idea of roughing it is verra similar to mine. I love nature, and being out in the wilds, but I like having civilization to return to in the evening.

This has been my experience.
And I am with Barb and Anne on the whole "roughing it" thing. Even going down to Joshua Tree - I stayed in a motel (that the SPN set dressers would LOVE).
Okay - let's get this sucker rolling. It's the weekend, so shall we give until Wednesday, 6 p.m. board time for everyone to make suggestions as to time & place, or shall we just say it's between Seattle, Portland, and some wooded spot and make a poll between those places and the possible weekends we can go?
Works for me, J.
And I am equally at home at a 5-star hotel, and in a tent.
Works for me too. Post in Press?

Same here. Add Buffistas and it is all good.
It's not much more practical than Bangkok, but I'd like to offer Alaska. We could have it in Juneau, and there's plenty of hotel space here if we have it in spring or early summer.
What I think would be even more fun, though, would be to have it on the ferry. We could get on in Bellingham (near Seattle), and ride the ferry together up to Skagway, with fun and hijinks at either end.
I realize that I've not been to F2F before, and I've been mostly lurky here lately, but I would be willing to take point, and I have coordinated conferences in Juneau and Barrow.
Or, um, pretty much anywhere from California's central coast north works for me.
