Thanks! My wife-to-be is an Aussie, so we're getting married in her home town. We're going to be living over here, but I'll be looking forward to trips back to see the in-laws. I wonder if the lack of traffic in the CO group(s) is due to the fact (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.us.co)

Hello, I've kind of wondered how many AFOL's were in the Front Range area. I must admit, I've felt a bit jelous when I read about the big LEGO get-togethers that take place in various parts of the country. I'd be up for something, but I'm not sure (...)

I'm all for car-pooling, if anyone needs it. I'm up north so I can pick up people as I come through town. As far as a time table, I would recommend September sometime after the holiday weekend.
