I'm not trying to put _too_ much of a dampner on it, I wouldn't be back in
Victoria in March. Mid April, yes, for a week, and then mid May. I don't
_think_ that there is a show in the spring (it always used to be fall), give me
a day and I will have a answer. (asking show organizers)
I would be available to do the fall show, and likely have room to host some
people from Van. for it, as well as tables (I can make them, its no biggy for
me), and I have _all_ the straight track that we would need (I have 580
pieces), as well as curves & Points.
About coming over to the Island, that would likely leave only one van to come
over, which is around $100 return (that was for our car, the last time we went
over to Aldergrove). Everyone else could probably walk on in Vancouver, and we
could arrange something at the vic end (in SEPT.) to get you and stuff to
downtown and then back.
Important lesson learned! _Bag_ lego that you bring across, in Ziplock bags one
per item. It tends to fall apart! I learned this flying Kenmore to Seattle to
a PNLTC show. Which also brings up another point: If I organize in Victoria,
it will be as the Victoria section of PNLTC, because I believe that that covers
us as well, and PNLTC already has 2 "separate" city groups (Portland and
Seattle)
