Flights? The East Coast contingent is looking into a massive RV and a fun filled road trip! Cool futronic, do you have a really big parking spot? Eek

Ten hours in an RV with Clark "Purple Haze" Griswold is definitely an experience that shouldn't be missed! Smile

If I may, count me in for the RV and the Offline!

Unfortunately, June 6 (or the 13th for that matter) will not work for me. I am truly going to miss seeing everyone again and meeting new people for the first time. I am sure this will be another great event. Please raise a glass for me as I will be there in spirit.

Just park it in the lake. It'll be fine. But seriously, I don't have anywhere to park an RV. It's Toronto! If that's how you're getting up here, we can figure something out though.

Disappointing to hear you won't be able to make it, LB. You'll have to make another trip to Toronto sometime soon to compensate.

Keeping up with these threads is like herding cats, futronic. Razz And just wait, this thing is only 4 pages long now......

I'm contacting some RV rental places this week to get some specs, so should have a capacity and head count before too long.

Good stuff, good stuff. Just make sure you show that pass to the border patrol agents so they can report back to your wife about the exact time you came into Canada.

I guess I am solidly committed now. Air and hotel booked. Arriving Friday afternoon and leaving Sunday afternoon. That is all the time the warden would give me.
