I'll be there but my primary star party telescopes are no more (sold the C14 and the big dob). I can bring the CGE mount and will think of something to put on it.

C, N, and I are home after an uneventful return trip from NEAF/relatives'. Progress has ruined the most scenic leg, US 301 from Callahan to Baldwin, FL - used to be a 2-lane run through the forest. Now it's to be 4-laned, and they've cut the trees back 200' each side .
Norman has been his usual post-trip self - he's griped constantly since we got home. Nelson has completely washed him, so at least he's clean - and wet.

Poor Norman. He really just needs to learn to be a travel cat. He'd have so much fun!! 
Glad to hear y'all made it the rest of the way safely. Too bad about the "progress".

Ok! Can you bring 3 extra suitcases? One each for Nigel and Freckles and then one for Poppy and Buttercup to share?

Hey gang! It's been quite a while since I have checked in here, so I wanted to see when BEOTS was scheduled for. It's too early for me to commit yet, but Kay and I are certainly trying to work it out this year, as it's been several years since we have been there. Kay brought it up to me a few weeks ago, said she wanted to get over there to see everyone again. I sure hope we get it worked out!

Sure! You don't mind chipping in a bit for baggage fees, do ya? 
Randy, it would be great if you and Kay could come too, it would be wonderful to see y'all again!

Thank you Dave!
Gosh I'm so excited about all the folks that are working out coming to BEOTS 2012. 
However, sad at those that can't make it. Eriker---sneak darlin', dumplin' needs a hug from you.

Casey and Nelson have been encouraged to grow extra fur on theirs. Based, however, on the brown hairy haze all over StaRV II, I don't know if there's a net gain.

He must be. Even just wagging his tail shakes hair off. Here's a picture from a month or so ago. His back now stands taller than my knees. I don't think he's quite done growing.
