Spent some time (and company printer cartridges ;D ) printing out maps showing the hotel and The Smokehouse so we can find it easily. I also keep thinking that maybe we should consider making reservations, once we decide on a day and time. I don't think we want to hit those poor folks with a party of 20 or 30 with no warning!

Wonder when they will post what, if anything, is happening on Friday afternoon? I suppose since the hotel is more central this year they might leave the afternoon free for sightseeing. BTW last day for non-US postmarked forms for the raffles is 22nd August.

I'm not expecting a lot. Probably around the same as last year - maybe a little more. Maybe a little over 100. Who knows. *shrugs*

I don't fancy the episodes and DVDs, would have fancied the trivia more, but will be on my way to the airport by then. Emmy Sunday.

I went ahead and told them I'd be around for the Sunday stuff.
But just because we say that doesn't mean we're obligated to it. Something better comes along, we can bail.
How many more days, Nici? ;D

Doug was very entertaining at both set visits, so should be good at the hotel presentation. Where did you see he was coming? Last day for US postmarked raffle ticket sales today. Probie Booth now have a photo of their raffle goodies.

So what is the deal for the smokehouse? Be sure to bring plenty of money as it is expensive. I'm glad I got my geek moment on the dvd since MH asked my question for SM and MW chimed in. OH JOY!! Who do we need to contact to get in the smokehouse jaunt? thanks.

I don't think we've ever decided just exactly when we're hitting The Smokehouse. There's been talk of Thursday afternoon before the costume thing and talk of Friday dinner/supper/whatever-you-call-the-last-meal-of-the-day. But so far it's just been suggestions and not a lot of "yeah, let's do it then." I think most of us are waiting until we get there and decide as a group. And while it's costlier than, say, a burger joint or coffee shop, it's certainly no more expensive than most dinner places, and cheaper than some. They'll also likely add 15% or so to the check for the large party, so don't worry about tipping.
