Announcing the Storm2k meetup in Biloxi on April 16th

[Pburgh]

That sounds like so much fun. I wish I could be there.
Cathy, I've heard those stories about you......you are a legendary biter!!!!

[CajunMama]

Now now! Those biting stories are about frack...not frick!

[Pburgh]

You mean you both bite??????

[MississippiHurricane]

I'll be there...........sign me up! We need to get AC to come.....or we can kidnap her and make her come

[mahmoo]

Sounds like fun and a good time of the year to go to New Orleans.....CM, you and Bre swing by and pick me up

[CajunMama]

I'd bring you in a heartbeat mahmoo! Let's get together for lunch first!

[Brent]

I'll be there...........sign me up! We need to get AC to come.....or we can kidnap her and make her come

Yeah, but the city of New Orleans isn't big enough for all her kids.

Yeah, but the city of New Orleans isn't big enough for all her kids.

Hell, the whole state of Louisiana isn't enough XD

[crazycajuncane]

This sounds like a great reason to visit New Orleans!

I'm sure I'll be there quite a few times before then!

put me down as likely... only work could stop me!

[Dave]

"likely meet at a bar or restaurant" better just change that to "meet in a bar" for SG's sake cause she'll never make it to a restaurant first. Btw are northerners welcome at this "ahem" get together??

The entire south isn't big enough for all her kids!

[Dave]

Don't let her lie to you like that, Rockin4NOLA. I've heard the rumors.


And welcome to Storm2k!

I've heard rumors that YOU bite SG, guess I'll come south and see if those rumors are true or not.

[southerngale]

You must be confusing me with someone else. I wouldn't bite.... phesh!

[Brent]

*makes note to get shots*

[southerngale]

Ok, it was brought to my attention last night that NOLA is very expensive and we might get more bang for our buck if we had the meetup elsewhere. And maybe more people. But I also realize that NOLA is kind of in between Texas and Florida, so the suggestion made, Galveston, would be pretty far for those in and near Florida. Btw, the person who suggested Galveston isn't in Texas and it doesn't make him any closer, but was just thinking economically. Either place would be a blast!

Anyway, I said I'd bring it up to get thoughts.

[CajunMama]

Yeah but there's no place that's as much fun as NO. Start saving and find roommates. I'm not working these days and i'll scrimp and save to be able to afford the hotel.

... Hi !
.In all fairness ...and for the love of the American way ...I say we take a Vote.

...New Orleans or Lafayette ?

Nuh uh. Not lafayette. I'm not allowing a bunch of weather weenies to invade my city!

[Brent]

I know it's expensive, but I'd much rather go to New Orleans than anywhere else.

Branch outside the quarter, there are MUCH cheaper hotels out there. I know it's not ideal, but if you can't afford it, it'd be better than NOT coming.

[Brent]

This appears to be the cheapest hotel in the French Quarter, $109-119 a night. Might still be a bit pricey for some, but it's a lot better than $200+ a night at the other places.

Thanks Steagle for the link.

Most of these hotels shouldn't charge you when you book so you could always cancel if something better comes up, but I noticed some other hotels filling up for that date, so you might want to book sooner rather than later(rates generally seem to go UP as a date approaches in most cases because of less space, barring something unexpected).
