Thank you for the link.

It looks like it was a lot of fun! And the next one is "in my backyard". Cool!

OH it is so very fun!!!! I'm working with Deepika and a few other ladies getting the details of this year's event planned. I think we're almost ready to "present" to the group so stay tuned. It should be a very fun weekend. I hope you'll be able to attend Kathy! :-)

I think I'll be able to come this year - crossing my fingers that life does not intervene! Have to decide between driving and flying though - will depend on where the accommodations are. I'm close enough yet far enough that I can go either way. Of course, out here we think nothing of driving six hours or more - East Coast people would fly in a heartbeat.

I'm crossing fingers that I can figure out a way to get there - PR Weekends are always so much fun - but I'm not sure at this point. Various kitty vet crises are taking a toll on my sewing budget, but I'm going to see if I can find the $$ somewhere else because I'd hate to miss this one.
