    That is the one downside to having a table. Unless you bring along a friend you are pretty much tied to your sales table.
    I had no problem what so ever with "evaporatoring" products, so I wouldn't wory too much about it.

    Hi Again,
    I received a RSVP so Im good to go.
    Is everyone staying at the Comfort Inn?
    Can I get some info on where it is and see if I can snag a room at this late date?
    Ill be driving in from Louisville KY on Friday, and heading back to NH on Sunday (14hr trip) if it helps anyone Ill have an empty seat.
    If there arr any hams in the group, is there a repeter in the area?

    Thanks,
    Alan Bradford N1YMQ

    Here's the webpage for Comfort Inn..
    www.bestwesternohio.com/hotels/best-western-norwalk/

    I can't guaranty the great room rate at this date. I would certainly ask.
    The rate they quoted was good till the end of July.

    I don't know about anyone else, but I will be staying at the Comfort Inn. Their lobby is the gathering site for Friday supper if anyone is interested. I'll be there at 6:00 and wait a while before I leave.

    Hi,
    I just reserved a room at the Comfort Inn and the pre tax rate is $69.
    Looks like they have rooms available still.

    @Ron / @All,

    6:00 might be a little early yet for some ... our flight for example doesn't get in until about 5:00 and between the drive and picking up a rental car I should be just rolling in at around 6:00 or sometime after.

    Hi Beau,
    I assume yoiur flying into Cleveland?
    It is about 50 miles from·Cleveland Airport to the Comfort Inn in Milan.
    It is at exit 118 on the Ohio Turnpike (I80-90).
    The rental cars are a 10 min bus trip from the airport.
    My guess is you will make it there around 7:30
    I have flown into and driven through Cleveland many, many times.

    It will be nice to meet you and all·the fellow Stamper/Proppers.

    I'm still waiting for more info on my travel schedule, but it's looking like I can make it. I'll be sure to RSVP by tomorrow. It'll likely be me and a friend arriving early on Saturday.

    I don't have anything to sell, and I don't really have anything to show off, but I was thinking about bringing some of my projects along to show if we get chatting and anyone wants to see... will there be any spare tables around for us to just set up temporarily at? I'd probably just leave them in my car most of the time since I really don't want to man a table... I just want to hang out and share ideas with others. Oh, and is anyone printing up nametags so we know who everyone is?

    I've never been, but you might check out some pics from the previous expos to see what people did.

    Wish I were going to be there!·sad.gif

    Wouldn't that be all the tables?· lol.giflol.gif

    I think I will make a sign, I could make a really big one because we are redoing our kitchen and we have a bunch of big, flat cardboard boxes that the cabnets come in. However, if I do make one, it would have to be decently small to fit in the car. smile.gif

    OK, lets revise plans a little for Friday evening. How about 7:00 in the lobby of the Comfort Inn Cedar Point South? Is this OK with you Jeff, or should we move the location up to Norwalk? I'll be the chunky guy with the grey beard and the growling stomach! Only kidding, I'll have a snack to help me wait.

    Jeff, you should already have my cell phone number, if not, I can resend it.

    Also what is the address of the place (for my GPS) ?

    What will the Expo be like? It is in half of a gym, but how big is the gym? Will it be crowded?

    Another question: What is the educational value of going to the Expo? I hope there is one so I will get to go back...... smile.gif

    Hey Bean,

    I think that it is the Econolodge. You mean the one we both stayed at last year along with a lot of other guys and a bunch of hound dogs?
    I decided to stay at the Comfort Inn this year and spend the money I save at the Expo! It is only an 8 minute drive according to Mapquest and with my knees I wouldn't be walking anyway!

    @Bean,

    I didn't record the information on the Motel down the street from the expo.
    It is rumored to be clean, but was a bit run-down looking.

    @Microcontrolled,

    The gym is quite large. I doubt we'll have any trouble using half of it. [noparse]:)[/noparse]
