I don't think I'm going to make it for New Orleans March 3rd unfortunately. I checked the hotels and there is nothing good in my price range with rooms open. I should have booked sooner! All the good hotels in my price range are all booked up that weekend.
Plus I took a lot of days off for my Vegas trip so I"m not sure if I can take more days off.
Unless...someone would be willing to share a room with me! Then I can pay for a much more expensive room lol.
Life is so short, I would love to see you and Babblers every chance that I can!
I want to go so bad! I think I'm going to check everyday for cancellations on hotel bookings lol.

Oh, I was just thinking...
The San Francisco date is probably far enough ahead of time to allow me to find some good deals. Plus it's much closer to Vegas. I'm wondering if plane tickets from SF to Vegas are much cheaper? If so, I could maybe do a double vacation LOL.
I'm playing this game on Facebook called myVEGAS and I'm earning Loyalty Points for free stuff. I've been playing for about a couple of weeks and I have enough points for a free room at the Mirage! May is pretty far away still so I might be able to get a lot more stuff free lol.
All Babblers should meet Dr. Bob once if at all possible. It's hard to tell online, but he's such a fun guy! He's funny, polite and very courteous.
I'm so impressed with how he treats others. He's so civil. LOL He's cool.
Plus you get to meet other Babblers and it's awesome being able to talk about Babble stuff in person. We're all so accepting! It's rare to be able to talk about Babble stuff with the people in our daily lives. Lots of people don't understand.
I'd love to meet Babblers too. We already have a lot in common because we're Babblers! It's going to be great.

Drat! I was looking forward to seeing you.
It does make sense though. It can cost a lot to make a short trip, and it doesn't seem like Dr. Bob will be anywhere very long.

This one's coming up first. Would anybody else like to do something fun together in New Orleans?
Bob
PS: Unfortunately, I'm no longer going to make it to Phoenix/Scottsdale/Tempe.

Sure.
It'll be much cooler than the last time you came. It's actually a lovely time in New Orleans. I'm not sure if it's too late for the Redbuds and Japanese Magnolias, and the Sweet Olives are in lovely scent now. I'm not sure how long they last. But the azaleas should be in their full glory.

I'm in Sonoma, North of San Fran in wine country - and am involved in couchsurfing, which means I have places for people to stay nearby. Specifically, in Sebastopol. Yay! If people want to come up to wine country, let me know, and I'll plan some fun trips! I'll even be the designated driver! ;) Or San Francisco is fine too. Just let me know and I'll plan something groovy! :) Hari/Karrot

Cool!
I would love to visit wine country. I'm pretty sure Dr. Bob is just going to SF though as he usually has conferences to attend on his trips around the world.
SF or wine country, either sound great to me.
I hope to see you!

I know three babblers (all old-timers) in Austin who might be up for a cup of coffee. I was thinking this can be a tough crowd to get together and do fun stuff...lol. I have about as much energy as a stop at a coffee shop would take, plus enough left to get back home.
I will check this page again to see how things are progressing; I would enjoy meeting Dr. Bob a lot. In the meantime, I hope everybody is doing well and hanging in there.

Good to be back here again and to see you're still interested in meeting your peeps.Since writing the above, I realized I should add that I and one of the other old-timers have to be home before dark. Partayy! <--joke But, even if not at one of the clubs Austin is known for, we can finally meet and have clever conversation over coffee.
As for a place, not sure where you'll be, and we're in the boonies, so being in touch on babblemail sounds good; we will probably come into town to closer to where you are.

a brilliant and reticent Web mastermind -- The New York Times
backpedals well -- PartlyCloudy
Bowls a 162!!!
Yes, Dr. Bob is a good bowler. Again I must shift my perception of him. I'm sure Dr. Bob was far too polite to notice what I bowled. I know I was far too kind to myself to remember the totals. :)
Eric Lyndell was at the Rock N Bowl. Since you guys weren't there, here is a close approximation. Without the bowling.

It would be a pleasure and a gift to hang out with you and others who might be in the area when you come to SF. I live in the city and would definitely like to meet/hang out and might be able to help plan if necessary?
