Hmm.. thats a toughie. I think the solder feild lots west of LSD are still
open. I could put in a call tomorrow and see whats available.
A weekday does sound good, but would limit how many can come. I'm free eny
time. If all else fails, I'll just throw a dart at the calendar and we'll
meet at one of the resturants inside :)
