I should be at both, even if it is just for the weekends it is nice being 1 hr from SDC and 2.5 hours from rantoul She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallingILweenie 0 #5 May 25, 2004 I am definitely going to Summerfest for most of the week--Rantoul, I wanna go to, but it will depend on money. I have a jump package I can use at SDC, whereas rantoul will be quite a bit pricier. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And what will be cool about even doing the weekend thing is that the one weekend will be the last weekend of SF and the other the last weekend of Wffc.. so you can get both parties in this year... woohoo! :) -Seth :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydiver30960 0 #16 May 26, 2004 My first thought is that this would boost attendance to both events... But then I needed to remind myself that I'm an unemployed bastard and that most folks wouldn't be able to get two consecutive weeks off WORK (oh yeah, now I remember what "work" is) to go to both events. So while us "lucky ones" will be able to go to both events, my bet is that for most folks it'll still be a "one or the other" kind of thing...

flyangel2 2 #23 May 27, 2004 The other showers weren't too bad. At least they were cleaned every day.
