Really want to go to this.
Wife already has a work conference that weekend.
(......goes quietly and sulks in corner.)
Doesn't that make it the perfect time to sneak away for a conference of your own?
Yes, it would be perfect...but 2 little kids at home say otherwise. It's not over yet...just have to see if I can recruit some grandparents for babysitting.
I would be happy to find someone to watch your kids for ya

It's a 4:45 drive for me, yay, no messing with airplanes!
Lucky. I can't find a flight where I wouldn't need to change planes. And some of the layovers would be in shudder New Jersey....

A local daycare service isn't a bad idea, especially as we have access to so many options.

SpiceCorps Buffalo, which almost never gets together, is trying to schedule something for September. I offered to speak if they can schedule close to the MangoCon event. We should get a number of people from the area together and attend Buffalo if possible and try to get them to schedule somewhere around the 12th and get their numbers up with a road trip from the Roch/Cuse area!

If it's the day before MangoCon, that'd be great for me, I'd stop by on my way to the hotel

Those of us in the area should post in their forum to get some traction for dates that we want.

I'm about 10 hours, but as I'll be there the whole week... I'm driving. Not fooling around with a plane either.

You could carpool with me to the Buffalo event. Are you staying near NTG HQ before the conference? I'll be around the corner at Sonshine Acres.

As yet to be determined, but most likely yes, will be pretty close to HQ.
Carpool - is that code for my being the DD?

It might be cause I doubt I will have time to go

Got an email from Starwinds this morning about a drawing for free MangoCon tickets! I still can't go but hopefully someone can win these.

That's awesome!
That they are giving them away, not that you can't go.

So, the hotel is sold out for those dates. Anyone have an extra bed?
-
NO the website isn't working. Just call the hotel and use the code GRS and there are still rooms available.
-
The only thing open arriving was the 14th, not the 13th. So I will just get an early ass flight out of Dallas.
I got the extra queen bed room so I can split the cost if anyone wants to share a room. -
I assume I wont need a car?

If you want to travel around the area outside of the Letchworth park trip you'll likely want one. There is a lot of really awesome things in the area. ~15-30 minutes in every direction.
