   Yes indeed! :-)

   It just occured to me that after the national meet, the idea was
put forth about doing something like this every couple/few years.
Maybe we should think about doing some sort of national effort again,
perhaps for 2011? That would be 5 years after the Colorado meet and
would basically coincide with the 15th anniversary of the DML. All of
the voting forms and such are still there and could be pressed into
service. Maybe do something in the eastern part of the US next time?

    Something that came to mind was if the meet was held somewhere
close to Chryslers@Carlisle, that could be included. For example, the
meet might start the week of Carlisle, and the show at the end of the
week would cap it off. Might be an incentive for those folks who
haven't had a chance to get to see the Carlisle show but weren't able
to justify going just for that. I think there are other things to do
in the area, depending on the kind of meet people want - the Hershey
factory is right there and so is Gettysburg. Not sure about
offroading though. (I think Paragon is about 100 miles away, but I
believe they got shut down?) Anyway, I don't know if that is a good
idea or not, but having just come back from Carlisle, I thought I'd
throw it out there as a possibility.

    Or maybe something in the Adirondacks? Might be cool to rent a
large cabin (or cabins) on a lake or something. I've never been out
there though so I don't know what other activities might be available.
