Jeff, you kids and your MTV minds. I suppose you want extreme ATV racing all over that countryside too.
Rick, the pictures of this place look absolutely beautiful. I'm thinking maybe I can use my "Joliet money" to come over in April. |

2638 miles from San Diego. 38 hours to drive, one way. That’s five bags of Ruffles and 5 six packs of diet Coke to get there, plus 200 gallons of gas round trip @ $2.58/gal.
OK, Sounds good to me. Jack

Well, I can get a good deal on a camper that's converted from a NYC garbage truck. I think I'll look into it.
Do the campgrounds have a bar and restaurant?[This message was edited by HowardR on 21 November 2005 at 10:01 AM.] |

You can take the New Yorker out of New York but you can't take...
Rick, just for Howard, please make sure you can provide 24 hour cab service, decent Italian and Kosher deli's(both meat and dairy), Sunday New York Times delivery and a variety of Art and Science museums for the off hours during the weekend.

Well, it's a great idea. Kudos to Rick.
What part of April would this happen? What is the weather like in your neck of the woods that time of year?
Rick, if there's anything I can do to help out in any way, shoot me an email. |

Rick - I've been bike riding out around Berryville. It's a really beautiful area.
Wow - Moonlighters and possibly the Hula Monsters. Kind of like getting the Stones and Beatles together back in the day. Perfect!
Any thoughts to an accompanying workshop? Maybe some intro to Hawaiian style for us Newbies.
I'll be there for sure! |

Les, that's a great idea with regard to a workshop.
Rick, I didn't realize the Berryville is only a 4-5 hour trip from NYC. That's a 3 sixpack drive..... only kidding
Heck, I'll even give Gerald a ride..... |

Mike Neer offered to do a workshop ...
I'm sure we can come up with various Hawaiian Steel related "mini-events" ...
Pre-fest Friday .... Post-fest Sunday ...
Yep I can see lots of time for info sharing, vintage guitar playing and general frivolity.
