Providence!
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Portland, ME! (I can't remember if we decided this is way too impractical, so I'm throwing it back out there.)

Do we have anyone in Maine? Cause we've learned that there needs to be someone on the ground in the host city, even if they're not the one who's organizing. I mean, we could make Frank stay with his family for a while, but I don't know how he'd feel about that ;)

Our wings are not tired
Of those dates many teachers will still be teaching on June 11-12. June 18-20 will pretty much exclude us. Depending upon other schedules and travels June 25-26 may or may not be workable since we'll have just been out of town the weekend before.

Do we ever go into July?

We haven't in the past, but that isn't to say that we couldn't. I think we have tried to keep it in a more temperate time period, but like I say, anything's possible!
On the initial poll, we can put the whole summer and see when the most people can be there.
At this point, I'm just gathering info.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Actually, June dates have been a recent development. Most of the early F2Fs were in May.

Yes, several of the F2Fs fell near my birthday (LEGENDARY!), which is mid-May. We started discussing June because May was difficult for the teachers in the group. But, as we get into June, it gets warmer, and Buffistas are delicate flowers. Of course, if we go the Maine (which I love the idea of, cause Maine is awesome), the heat is not so much an issue.

I would be fine with a July f2f if it means more people could come.
