...as to a date. The Longhorns have a football game at home on 11/8 so hotel rooms might be an issue for those of us coming from out of town and staying over Friday night. Might I suggest the following weekend (Fri 14th/ Sat 15th). I've kinda grown to like the Marriott so I suspect we'll be staying there again. http://www.marriott.com/hotels/trave...-austin-hotel/
And Tone- thank God there's no need to help rebuild my son's Flugtag glider in 100 degree temps like the last time I was in town. For those who didn't see my Chupacabra son Jeremiah's feeble attempts at birdlike status, after Tone & I lent construction advice (mostly the former by the way) the night before, here was the end result from that hot day last year in front of 40,000 people.
That day was best summed up by Charles Dickens: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times". Damn hot is what it was.
