How does the weekend of Oct 18 to 20 th sound?

Please let me know if you are intersted and I shall start planning.

C'mon out for a little Rocky Mountain High! 

[trusting]

That works for me.

I'll be there in spirit! It sounds a ball. Bit pricey as a weekend outing from UK.  But from the enthusiasm, maybe this will become an annual week-long event! In that case, I'll start saving. Horses, cowboys . .  . 

You might need to buy more hot tubs.

I am going to plan to come as long as all is well with my dad. I am retiring from teaching this year so it will be the first October I have not been in school.  Sounds like a great start to retirement.

Oct 18 to 20th sounds good.  I was thinking 'if' everything goes well but, it's just a weekend so I'm sure I can manage.  Any recommendations for accomodations etc?  I assume we are meeting in Denver? 

[Dontgiveup]

Oct 18 weekend should be good with me.  Huskers have a bye that Saturday.

When I am more aware of the numbers, I'll check into accomodation. There  are reasonable hotels close by to my house...and we shall use my house as "party central"... My thoughts are that to keep costs down, we can make our meals at my house, taking turns perhpas and sharing the costs. Perhaps going out for dinner one night.

We may also take a drive up to the mountians if people wish. The Aspens wil be glorious at that time.

If you could think about this weekend and perhaps by next weekend let me know, that way people can take advantage of cheaper flights.

For  those who wish to stay a few extra days to explore Colorado we can definately extend the dtaes on either side.

that's a great weekend for me, too! out of all the weekends in October, that's the only one that'll be no problem child-care wise

[brokenhearted]

Bump.  Just wondered if there was a final date set up. I would like to look at flights. I might be able to find something cheaper if I look early.  Thanks.

Hi...I have kind of let this slide as on June 8th I put out the date of Oct 18 to 20 and only Calamity and Different Colored days seemed interested.

The Europe meetups are planned quite far in advance so that people could get flights etc.  Since, there has not been much of a response, I have not done any further planning on this...so I don't know....I am always opened to meeting individuals if they find themselves out this way but a meetup usually would be several LBSers who wish to get together over a couple of days. I am not sure if the dates are what are stopping people or finances, I do know that I tried once before to arrange something here and it did not take off.

So at the moment, I am not sure that there will be a meetup in October. It would require considerable planning and since my daughter's wedding is mid Sept, I had hoped to do all the planning ahead of time.

I really don't know brokenhearted whether there is enough interest to try and get something organized. Sorry.
