As past HTF national meet attendees my wife and I are looking forward to this one!

Hello, everyone! This will be my third national HTF event, having attended the LA meets in 2001 & 2004. Looking forward to seeing familiar & new faces alike!

And I gotta say, the Venetian is definitely an upgrade from the Beverly Garland...

Craig,

Yuh think?!

Happy you are returning for another HTF event!

Hi everyone. This will be my second HTF national event. I guess you could say I got hooked after attending in 2004 (was it really three years ago???). Although the stint is shorter, I think it will be just as awesome!

So what do people think about airfare? Better to wait or better to buy now? Allegiant Air actually flies out of my city, but only on Thursdays and Sundays, otherwise it would have been a great deal (about half off what I'm seeing on standard carriers).

Hey Guys!!

This sounds like fun! I haven't missed a national meet yet, and I don't intend to miss this one.

Hopefully my boss agrees and lets me take the time off. From the looks of the schedule, we'll be back home on Friday, right?

I'm thinking sooner rather than later. Oil prices are starting to rise again, and what I'm reading says they expect that to continue through the heavy summer travel months. Air fares are probably going to go nowhere but up.

I'm actually thinking of driving again. It's become a bit of a tradition with me...

Howdy!

I went ahead and booked airfare on American Airlines. At $218, it beats my last round trip in June of 2006 by $140.

While there is a possibility that Southwest will have a special fare in the coming months, it is equally likely that the extra fees will add up quickly, and that the flight will involve connections. I'd much rather fly direct, even if it means paying a few dollars more.

But enough about flights. What about LOVE?

It sounds like Monday night will be our only guaranteed opportunity to do something on our own. Cirque du Soleil/The Beatles LOVE is playing at the Mirage, just across the street from the Venetian, at 7:00pm and 10:00pm. Tickets will be on sale soon--probably within the next week.

I also am interested in seeing Blue Man Group, but not set on it. I figure I'll wing that at the hotel.

By the way, if the Beatles or the Blue Men aren't your thing, check out Cirque du Soleil 'Ka' or 'O'...Ka has the most spectacular staging of any live show I've ever seen.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!

Ron straightened me out. I think the "official" schedule is fly in on Monday and fly out on Friday. I got the time off, so I'm IN!

I'm looking forward to meeting everybody/seeing returning folks again too. Steve, your site used to be the first web site I'd visit every morning.
