    OK, folks. Three weeks left. I'd like to join y'all for at least one night of "upbuilding Christian fellowship". (Yes, that's my code phrase for getting approval from Mrs. O for out of town travel. )

    How many others still plan to come to Indy?

    I checked the Indy Convention & Visitors Association web site this evening, and most of the downtown hotels are booked up for the night of 7/30, and quite a few are booked for 7/31 also. I guess we'll need to find a designated driver or a taxi.

    Will July 30 - Aug 1 work for the rest of you? I can't stay the night of Jul 31, but would love to meet everyone Friday nite & can spend most of the day Saturday. I just need to be on the road by 6 pm. Looks like these guys have rooms available that weekend, and they're within stumbling distance of downtown.

    Sassy, I was wondering the same thing. This is what I found when I looked around a minute ago:

    I tried sending her an IM several days ago, but have not heard back from her.

    OK, Lisa & EIU ... just to recap:

    I was originally thinking of a Friday - Sunday fest, but now I have to be back home by Saturday night. I'm now thinking dinner Friday night, hit a club or two, and then bop around one of the festivals together on Saturday. Y'all can keep on aposta-partying Saturday night, but I do need to scoot by about 6 pm. There's quite a bit going on in Indy that weekend, including:

    Micro-brew Festival, July 31 http://www.indplsartcenter.org/

    First Annual Broad Ripple Blues Fest, July 31 http://www.mybroadripple.com/Main.asp?UID=102976&SectionID=7&EventStart=1&ShowCal=1&CalendarMonth=7&CalendarYear=2004&CalendarDay=31&SubSectionID=43&EventID=44

    The Indiana State Fair & the Indy Wine Competition, July 29 - 31 http://www.in.gov/iwc/

    For more info, go to:

    Indy Visitor Info http://www.indy.org/sections/visitors/

    The downtown hotels seem to be filled (at least accourding to the online reservations link from the Visitors' Bureau), but I found a place just north of downtown for $69 per night. According to the web site .... "Renaissance Tower features 80 elegant Victorian studio suites with solid cherry four-poster beds, bay windows and fully equipped kitchens. Local phone calls, voicemail, cable TV and on-site parking are free. All eating and cooking utensils, linens, towels and bedding are included.Internet access in every suite. Exercise and laundry facilities.

    Since I live in Kansas City, Missouri, I can come if it is in St Louis or Kanasas City.
