Just a reminder that next weekend is the Convention. I realize that I haven't done a lot to publicize this and I apologize. We've had a pretty good response on the picnic so far -- and I will tell you that Seth Stohs has indicated that he will be there. I want to encourage you to consider coming and going to the game, too.
When: Aug 1
Time: 12:00-5:00
Where: Minnehaha Falls Park
Cost: $5.00, $10.00 for a family (plus a game ticket ~$20, if you are so inclined)
Friends, I hope you can come if it works out.

I am contemplating doing this, despite only being around this site for a few weeks...
Well, you are from ND, so that's reason enough.
I can't do it this year. Family stuff going on that weekend.
If we do a smaller scale WGOM happy hour sometime I should be able to pull that off.
Y'all have fun now, ya hear? Sorry I won't be able to go for 3 in a row this year.
And despite photographic evidence, Ubelmann still isn't a real person for me. I went to the convention last year and I heard rumors that the elusive Ubelmann had stopped by, but I don't buy it. I need to see him with my own eyes.
I'm afraid it looks like I'll be out of town for that weekend - sorry I'll miss it!
Looks like I'll miss out too. That free day is now eaten up with wine sale @ work (extended an extra day! Joy!), and two (not just one!) gigs.
So is there a list of who's coming? About all I've seen in the couple of posts are all the people who say they can't come.
There are a few people coming, but to be honest, it appears that I've picked a really bad weekend or haven't given sufficient notice.
Would August 15th be a better date??????
I am flying into town September 10th for the A's series....
Sheenie and I would likely be able to make it then.
The 15th is out for Moss...not sure about the 1st yet.
Moss is definitely OUT for the 1st now...
Don't forget nametags this year, Boss!
I would do the 15th.
The 15th would work for me.
The 15th would still work for me, too, I think.
Either weekend is fine for the UW household.
The 15th would probably work better for me than the 1st. I guess I'll have to see. How much advance warning do you need?
The 15th has a higher probability of working for me. I have been looking for a reason to come up and visit in August, so this might be it.
I can make the 1st, but not the 15th.
same here.
