This sounds like a good idea. My personal vote will be for the regular
meeting since I know that the display will take a lot of time and planning.
But just like Greg, if others want to road trip to Northern VA on Saturday,
I think that they should. At some point, we should plan group road trips to
WAMALTC and to Raleigh to visit the LUG down there.

I do not know yet whether I will be able to attend Brickfest or not.

"THE STORE" is a very dangerous place for me to be [evil grin]! Also,
forgive my cluelessness, but I have never hear of Tuesday Morning. Where on
W. Broad is it?
