Either date is fine with me. I'd really like the August date to be in
Fremont as I plan on bringing a ton of Town stuff to that meeting. For
the train meeting anywhere near is fine as I just plan on bringing some
cars and not a whole train setup. Of course I am always partial to
Fremont as it's just the right distance for me to travel.
