PS I like the idea of splitting up into groups, although I think we should all meet together a couple times a day to check in and switch groups if we feel like mixing and matching whatever activites we might have planned.

Exactly what I'm hoping we can plan!

Looking forward to meeting you and the rest of the gang!

If I can help in anyway, let me know. I live right outside of D.C and would be willing to help organize. I'm a great planner and could help staff.

Out of curiosity, who is definitely coming to this?

Corry · Feb 1, 2006

This is the list we have...don't know who of these are definites though. I'm almost definite, but we haven't booked a flight or hotel yet.

I am probably about 80%. It all depends on what flights are like...

So...where are we gonna do the group photo??

I want to do a really good group photo! Not just 'everybody stand in two rows and smile!' (nothing wrong with those...I just want a better one in DC!)

How about the capitol? Lincoln Memorial? Washington Monument? I think those three would be nice spots.

Aren't you supposed to be on a plane to Italy? :scratch:

Unimaxium · Mar 26, 2006

I'm supposed to be at the airport at 3:15, and then I leave 6:15. I'm just doing one last round on TPF before I go ;-)

it's hard to rely on weather reports this far out. because of dc's close proximity to the appalachian, weather patterns change by the minute. i do recall reading the farmers almanac where it also predicted wet weather for this region during those dates, but they've been wrong many times

i will add that the blossoms are now close to peak bloom....you may miss these.
