Kevin's Watch

I think we are pretty flexible. I'll let everyone mull it over and then let him know our potential dates so he can black out any rentals. They very rarely get people wanting to take a beach vacation after the school year starts.

not that i think i can do it - but what is the latest possible adding on of my name?

If you can put us up for free, Jenn, I will kiss your feet!

^^ what he asked...

Also, would one or two cute, attention-seeking ankle-biters be welcome if I were to bring 'em?

Linna, might you come?
That would be quite excellent;
I'd like to meet you!

I am having a real hard time finding hotels in the area that seem suitable. Not sure if it's me or if it's all closed in October. Jenn? Any suggestions?

Edit: maybe the Falmouth Inn?
"off-season rates from $65"
- 123 rooms - indoor heated pool - free wi-fi "in public areas"
- [unsure if free] breakfast buffet - pets allowed on request

This link is helpful, since the Falmouth Marathon is in October.

Looks fine to me.

I am going to be in New Mexico/Arizona/Utah during that time. I am trying to fit both in so the question is do I take my southwest vacation before or after new england. I want to catch part of the balloon festival and I don't want it to be too cold at the Grand Canyon.

(of course all this assumes my back is functioning by then)

How many people are we seriously expecting? Some of us can double up in rooms quite willingly. If we fill Gran's house we can overflow to Paul's house. If there are those who prefer to go the hotel route I'll have to do some research, also known as ask my friends. I've been away from the cape for a long time and I've never needed a hotel. Anyway, lets get a current head count idea so we can see what all we will need.

Do we need to start another poll thread "Seriously, who's coming?"

depends who i get to double up with.

I hope to see you all in 2013.

I think we might need another who's coming poll. Also a who wants free rooms and who wants private rooms sensus seems in order

(I was figuring there'd be more than ten, so I was looking at hotels.)

I went over two threads and collected the names of the people who've indicated an interest in attending. Of course, there are varying degrees of committedness at this point, which I won't try to capture here. And this list doesn't include significant otherage (with one exception). So as a head-count, it's sketchy, but a start. And as a start, it looks like a party!

uhm...

Knock that down by one.

As I know the alt has already been outed elsewhere, I don't think it would be remiss for me to say there is an alt of a user also listed as attending on that list.

So which one is also Dread Poet Jethro?

I'm still planning on making it, though the fam's going to sit this one out.

I take it the closest airport is New Bedford (err, actually, it looks like Boston)? If someone could pick me up and give me a corner to sleep in, I'd appreciate it.

You guys get to duke out how the free accomodations are doled out. I figured a first claim first reserve so Sarge and Mrs., Ali, Lorin, Rigel and Syl have all openly coveted rooms as far as I can tell. I'll bunk with Paul to keep as many rooms free as possible. If any of you are willing to share it will free up more room. I'll let you figure it out.
