There is plenty of room.

Cliff and his programmer had to cancel because of a health problem.

Roger,

Have you sent out a notice to your email list ???
and the xbase newsgroup ?

No. I have been too busy with other stuff.
I'm really not looking to have a lot of people this time.
I did this because Cliff and Bobby wanted a devcon and now Cliff can't come.
This is a very busy year for me with lots of other stuff going on.
I was hoping to have a year off from devcons for the first time since 1990.

I will be satisfied with whoever shows up.
I have reserved a small boardroom for a small group.
I can handle a small group. That will be easy.

Too bad Cliff is not coming...but this is for sure?..before I get my non-refundable airline tickets....
(OK, I am cheap)

My upcoming trip to Idaho is interesting.

Irma did not cause any damages to my Area in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
So this part is good.

My flight path is via Miami and Phoenix on my way to Boise.
On the way back via Phoenix, Dallas, Miami.

I hope all airports are up and running for the dates.

See you soon.

We're in North Florida, and it looks like we'll get the hurricane sunday night monday morning... I'm leaving from orlando.. My main concern will be can i get our of my rural area with all the trees that are going to be down and make it to the airport...

[rdonnay]

This could turn out to be just me and Bobby.

Bob Volz is stuck in southern Florida.

I thought that September would be a good time for a get-together.
Usually, travel is good at that time, but this is an unusual year.

We are having fires out here now too.
Hopefully, air will get better by Thursday.
It's looking a bit better the past 2 days.

I hope that those of you travelling from points south can make it here safely.

[bwolfsohn]

I'm not "stuck" just concerned about getting to the airport.. I anticipate being there...

should know better by monday night....

We've got 19 refugees from south florida staying with us... We had a great time last night celebrating my 70th birthday... But, it looks like we'll probably get cat2 level winds early monday morning...

The house is boarded up, and we have a whole home generator, so we should have power for about 7 days after the storm... I should be able to post even with no power in the area...
