I have played cribbage in the past.

I'll help out somewhere with expenses. Just not quite sure how much yet. Let me get through the next week or so.

You explained once why you chose the name you've used for the past multi-months. Not going to recap the details of that explanation here...just asking whether you really want to give that person that much power in your choice of identity?

Too bad, because I have no recollection of said explanation. Can you at least give me a link to it?

I've got a cribbage board that is half of a bowling pin split top to bottom. Too bulky to pack. I guess I'm going to have to practice online. :lol:

There are plenty of good not real high priced hotels around the airport, which is pretty close to Danlo's. I'm not sure where in Albuquerque the dinner is at, but there will be plenty of people to hitch a ride with to there.

We haven't set the dinner yet, I'm not worried, if worse comes to worse booking The Cooperage again should be just fine. We DO have an excellent videographer and our huge killer grill. The deck my friend Fidel and I are going to build, starting next week, will be finished way before E-fest and veterans will be impressed by the renovation of the ol' Stonedown. :P

As someone who's never gone to Elohimfest before but may find himself in Albuquerque around June 11 (my mom lives in Santa Fe), can someone give me the scoop on how this thing works? Do I have to sign up? Is there a schedule already posted somewhere?

Just show up, when we get the approximated itinerary posted, pm us, any of us your cell and call to let us know your whereabouts and we will help figure the logistics of your arrival. Any and all are welcome, no signing up required but it does help the restaurant if we know a relatively accurate head count before we descend upon them.

As much as I'd like to join for the entire weekend's festivities, I'm in town largely to visit my mom, who's not in great health, so I probably would only be able to come for the supper, if that's okay. Speaking of which: is the day/time/venue for the supper set at this point?

My travel plans are not finalized yet, but if/when they are, I'll definitely let someone know well ahead of time.

Thanks to all who organize this! It's amazing.

Thanks for the e-mail otherwise I'd have no clue this was all going on at all :)
