Dear Jack.... [convention Q&A]

[spotts]

This is the place where ya'll can put your questions in one place, for all to see the answers. Yea, I'm that lazy.

Question #1 I've been asked is "I wanna stay a couple of extra days, shoud I come early.... or stay late?"

Answer. Stay a few days after. I'm gonna try to take um off to and do some High Country Touring. I'm planning to take a crew of stragglers [late stayers] up the hill on Monday. Maybe go see Estes Park and take a cruise up Trail Ridge Road! At 12,200 ft and waaaay above the tree line, you can actually look DOWN on the clouds as you drive there. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e2/Trail_Ridge_Road.jpg
This is a bad photo but you can see, it's the very tip top of the Rockies. Some real OMG views. Google search Trail Ridge Road!
It's a beautiful thing. After the tour, Estes is a nice high altitude touristy town like Bennington, fulla elk, and great food and fun stuff. It also has cheap cabins so some may choose to spend a night in the rockies.

Ya'll will have to enjoy this photo, cause the beets are almost all processed and there wont be any more till late fall. I honestly could get ya a tour tho, if ya really want in. Summer would be a piece of cake.

The hotel only has 19 rooms . I can guarentee that those 19 will fill up , so what about the 20th person ? Where do they go ?

[spotts]

Thats a great question, and one I've given some thought to. I'm guessing this is gonna the "Smokin Drinkin and Cussin location, so anyone who wants a quieter trip, should check the below list. The Central is the hotel that will be the "Meeting Place" and the others will know how to get there. The original town of Ft Morgan is exactly 1 sq mile. Nobody will be gettin lost.

I used to work with a controls guy years ago. He would go off the deep end four or five times a day. Then I did not see him for about six to eight months, when I did see him he was a different guy. He had mellowed out and just did not get upset. Asked him what came over him and he said anger management classes. I told him I was going to bust his nuggets all day until he snapped, he said go ahead and try...it will not work...and if it does I will kill you...I decided not to try...not that I was scared mind you...:D

Dear Jack......

I know your expending alot of personal time and expense into putting this fine event together. Are we planning on having any type of attendance fees, etc. To help financially with everything that we are planning on? Or, are you just setting out a big old water jug with a note "donations and tips", at the BBQ.

Planning on bringing some Utah Polygamist Beer for the bash. Looking forward to the BBQ NUTS! Love those things, sheep or bull?:D

[spotts]

Bull, young bull, whatever thats called. Polygamy porter! Thats so COOL! I have a friend who lives there, and he brought me a key chain with the polygamy porter label on it. I was PISSED! A key chain? Didn't you DRIVE HERE!!!! Bring the BEER next time! So yea, I'd like to try that and it would be a hit at convention. I'd bring at least a case.

Yea, there will be costs involved. Last year was just http://www.hvac-talk.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=137265
Not much because we already were in the city. I'm gonna Bus us all to Denver one day, so that will add a few more $$$ per head.

[slctech]

You know the stuff!! Polygamist Porter Beer! This stuff is the sh$%#. I'll risk interstate liquor trafficing laws and bring a few cases!

Remeber to make sure you have the crew roll down the windows on the bus when we drive through the 5 miles of HELL called the cattle ranches along the freeway there. Have to admit that is the most God aweful stench I have ever come across. Even better during the hot simmering heat of August!!

I'll be watching for your cute pre-registration form when the time comes.

[jpb2]

Let me know Jack. I dont want you to hold the bucket so to speak. This is gonna be a great weekend

[spotts]

You know the stuff!! Polygamist Porter Beer! This stuff is the sh$%#.

Funny label too! "Bring some home to the Wives"
