I'm personally calling out the following two members: XRPredator and RM_Guy! :p
Both you guys know that you would make a bunch of people smile if you were to show up, even for a day or two. I'm extending the offer publically, that you guys are covered for whatever you need. Food, place to sleep, bike, whatever. Come on, it's been too long already and we're all too good of friends to not meet in person. What better place than at THE family reunion? Come in late Thursday/early Friday and leave late Saturday/early Sunday. That's only a couple days away from the families at the most. I promise I'll try not to impulsively hug you, although I can't say the same for zio...
Let me tell ya, last year, first day zio was there, we were all kinda hangin' under the big top, and zio quietly says to no one in particular, "This is everything I figured it would be", or somethig like that. I'm telling ya, there is a special vibe in the air that is beyond description. It's the vacation of a lifetime, once a year.
What say ye?
