Yes. I've begun kicking the idea around on the SEALUG mailing list. If we
held it in Seattle, we'd be able to include people from BC, OR, and maybe
some of the other Northwest states. We might even attract a couple of folks
from the CA area.
I can see us holding a fest in either January or April.

I could potentially drive to a fest in San Francisco. It's about 13-14 hours
from here, but I drive back to Montana every once in a while, so I can
handle it. And there would likely be a carpool from these parts. Problem is,
are there enough FOLs in SF to even hold a fest?
