Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!
If Royal Street still has decent funky shopping, looks like a contender.
It does. I prefer the other side of the quarter away from Canal, but exactly 10 minutes of walking will get you there. We'd also be close to the Hotel Monteleone which means we could go to the Carousel Bar (which actually revolves like a carousel).
Count me in on the ''cheaper/nicer hotel is better than a bunch of stuff to do since hanging out with y'all is my primary interest" team.
On the resort idea (And this isn't for this year, but it's an idea I've been kicking around) I've got a contact at a great Guest Ranch in the Sierra Nevadas. We could most likely rent the entire facility. Full bar, pool, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, dance floor, pool tables, etc. etc. Around 20 cabins that each sleep up to 4, and a main lodge with hotel style rooms. Might be a good place for a future F2F. We could probably pull it off for a reasonable price and the cost would include all meals and things like that.
As far as city goes, I personally feel like going someplace without *too* much to do would be ideal. I hated being torn between "Wanna hang with the 'istas" and "Must...see...monuments...Must...go to...museums...enrich...self..."
I don't want enrichment or enlightenment. I wanna have fun.
New Orleans isn't terribly enriching, to be honest.
I'm just saying, it's not the first adjective that would come to mind.

Got news for ya babe. At the next F2F, you're only going to have so much fun as my breasts allow. As your CHILD will be attached to them.

Hee hee hee...sorry. Sorry.

That's true - it's all about fun enhancement. Eating drinking and music.
Did you have to pay for alcohol, Laura?
Nope. The only type I have been to were all inclusive.
NOLA, enriching, snerk.
There's also the fact that some of us exist who might *not* want to spend every waking moment in group activities, and would still like to have something available to do when alone besides watch tumbleweeds blow by. I think Washington presented a very good mix of opportunities for together and alone time.
