Well, I am going to be out of town for RiverCities and Monjuni's wouldn't take reservations for <20 people, so we need to find a new place to go.

We also need to get a new head count since some others are not coming.

So sign up here if you are coming and I will get reservations for you guys at Macarroni Grill.

Even though I won't be there, Heather and Paige (the baby) will probably come to see John and Angel and meet the rest of you guys.

That just sucks!  Sorry you won't be there!  We'll raise a glass of wine, er, um, water in your honor!

Count me and Derek in for Macaroni Grill...yum!

Again you have to ask yourself if the job's worth it...Wink

As much as we'll miss you, we would love to have your better half two-thirds join us, and really appreciate you handling the reservations. I'm thinking 7 o'clock would be a good time to eat???

Put down Angel and I and the three little bears, I'll try to contact some of the other BTers who signed up and are still in.

Can we make it 5:30 or 6?   Yes I'm an old lady, I go to sleep early.....

 Either way I'm in.

Me + John = 2 in my crew

Okay guys....I'm most likely out for Rivercities......John messed up his dates and it turns out the Food Show conference thing is in New Orleans that weekend. Since he owns a local meat foodservice business, he has to be in town......so unless I plan otherwise (like going without him, although I doubt I will)

you can minus two from the list

Everyone have fun though!!

Bummer! 

You're welcome to come alone, if you like. I have a big support crew with mama bear and the three little ones, we'll help take good care of you. Hate to see your registration $$ go to waste, all that swag go to someone else...

I stopped by Sportspectrum today and asked about someone picking up my swag if I couldn't race.

They said that as long as they didn't get the race number someone else could pick it up.

So if I am out of town (which is 99% likely), Heather can pick it up.

I'm in for dinner. Wife was going to try and make it, but she probably won't be able to get out of work. So one reservation for me, please. Thanks for your help with this Mike. Sorry you can't make the race.

I was in for the dinner originally, but will refrain from committing now.  It's looking more and more possible that baby #2 could make his grand entrance before the race. 

If it still works out and I make it to Shreveport, I'll at least try to stop in and say hello, though.

I'm the king of procrastination. I still haven't made my hotel reservations. I know some of you are staying at the Days Inn. Anyone got a phone number? Won't be surprised if they are booked, but it's worth a try. If not, I'll find something around the area.

And if anyone has reservations and is looking to split costs or anything... I'll take up 75% of the room cost since I have slacked so bad in making my reservations.

See you all there!

There's a carbo dinner hosted by Sportspectrum too with great door prizes....or so I've heard. I'm sorry that I won't be able to join you guys at Macaroni Grill. I hope to meet some of you anyway either at packet pick up or raceday.

davidb - 2006-08-04 8:20 PM So, where is this Macaroni Grill, in case I can make it?

Corner of E. 70th Street and Youree Drive. It's in the new shopping area just north of Sportspectrum (packet pickup). It's across from BestBuy and in the same shopping center as Circuit City, Lowe's and Starbucks.

Bear - Congrats on the citizenship. I had no idea there was another reason for everyone to get together.

Sorry that I missed it. (and sorry the wait was long and you guys were next to the kitchen).

Thanks for letting Heather and Paige come along with you guys.

Good luck to all tomorrow.

Citizenship was an added bonus, didn't realize I was up for it, but anything for free cake. Kitchen was busy, but kept the boys (and Paige) entertained. Fun night, good food.

I'm really bummed out that I didn't get to meet up with you guys at dinner on Saturday night. Perhaps next year? I'll definitely be at RiverCities again and I'm definitely going to still be on BT.com. I did see some other BTers randomly throughout the day....The Bear, Giddyup and tri it cajun. Great job everyone! I'll see you guys next year...or maybe at the MeatPie Tri?
