hmmm...now that i think about it, i'll be pretty busy during most of it but maybe sometime on saturday would work. i'm gonna be at my dad's on sunday and then next week is formula D, so that kinda cuts down on opportunities.

ok, a few of us are thinking about going down there tuesday night, anyone down? it goes until 9 pm so we could probably head down there after traffic (7 or so?) and still have plenty of time. let me know if you wanna go and we'll get all the details figured out.
