Maybe you can split a room with DLB.

Matter/anti-matter cannot exist within a closed environment.

hahahah, Boys are so silly.

Oh man, with me trying to scrounge financing to send Beorn again to camp this summer, I so see this not being doable for me, even if I do stay in a tent.

:::bummer, drag, poo:::

I'm sad for everyone who can't come. Try, people, TRY!!!

that Days Inn downtown is far away from danlo's.

look in the UNM area. there's tons of hotels out that way. i'll go look for a link.

you guys look up a city map of albuquerque and see what i mean.

i will too and post one if i can find one.

LOL

As to my hotel pick. My priorities were location (near Danlo's) and price (FREE - Marriot points!)

As to a pool - LOL - I do not want to subject the world to ME in a bathing suit!! It was not a factor for my selection.!

Jenn, just to satisfy my OCD, did you get a confirmation of the weekend from SRD?

My major cross streets are, roughly: San Mateo and Gibson. I assume that Saturday the 2nd will be the date for dinner and SRD's talk/interview--I need to confirm this with you guys before I try to email G. R. R. Martin (or possibly Sci-Fi author Walter Jon Williams--if Martin declines) to invite as Toastmaster. I'm looking at some venues but we have plenty of time for that. We need to start designing T-Shirts and commemorative 30 Year Anniversary of LFB Shirts as well--so you creative types start drumming up ideas!

As far as I can see Martin's email is top priority right now...the little film crew (my tech head buddies from Santa Fe) know to be available that day, but we won't have to start on the details till May. We need to start notifying old Festers too--I'm not sure that folks like birdandbear, Caam, Fist and others know that this is actually happening--I assume Romeo will be coming again soon. I don't know if Fist can afford to come out--duchess indicated probably not, and I'm concerned for her health right now.

No but I fired an email right back at him after he responded that he was free and I told him to mark that weekend as no longer free because it's the official date of elohimfest. I'll fire another email asking for confirmation from him and if I don't hear back by tomorrow I'll just call him on his cell phone.

Jenn we posted at the same time...see my post above

Fist told me in a PM a few days ago that he will not be able to attend this year.

Danlo, if you want to pm me your digits I can call you as soon as I know a confirm on SRD and I am sure he's confirmed.

ok i can't figure out how to embed a map from mapquest

danlo lives in the SOUTH EAST corner of albuquerque.

that's important in alb. because the streets run all across the city and many of the main ones have north east and south east designations.

he lives very very near the airport which you can find easily on the mapquest map of the city.

www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?city=Albuquerque&state=NM

zoom in twice till you can see how the two highways intersect in the middle of the city map.

look in the SE quadrant for Gibson blvd SE

Ok, just sent a please let me know for sure if June 2nd is written in pen on your calendar type email to Steve. I'll post on the watch as soon as I hear.

Does anyone have a vague idea what happens when?

I assume the "big nite" will be Sat evening, and that Fri night, Sat daytime, and Sun daytime are for other kinds of ad-hoc get togethers. Some more planned, like shows and ballgames, some more like just getting together for dinner/drinks.

Is this a good guess?

I need this to figure out what days to fly, etc. I probably won't have the luxury of flying in Thu nite and leaving Monday morning. So if I have to cut it closer, I want to know which way to trim.

yes that's pretty much it...we went out for breakfast a couple of times and toured the Jemez Mountians and the Valle Grande (Andelian!) as well, last time.

So who's confirmed already?
Damelon
Creator
dlb
Luci
Wadds
Jenn
me
aliantha
Wayfriend

and Gunns is still a question mark, right

some folks to work on:
Romeo
Cail
and let start a fund for Menolly

caam just lives in Phoenix and birdy and hub are in Dallas--kinslaughterer lives in NM for gods sakes he HAS to come---maybe we could even convince Farm Ur-Ted to come down from Colorado!

$80 / night, not bad.....

I haven't made a final decision but I'm probably staying here, based on Danlo's recommendation.

Out of curiosity, how many people attended the first elohimfest?
