Oh, and I just saw a feature on the FoodNetwork about a killer BBQ place in St. Louis!!! Other folks have offered to "share" another barbecue joint outside of Kansas City... this is shaping up to be a bit of a barbecue tour.
Got to have barbecue!

All these BBQ stops may slow down your trip, LL! :laughing: I suppose you'll divvy them up between coming and going? Or will it be dinner BBQ in St. Louis and lunch BBQ in KC??

Maybe this trip will call for a flip-up helmet! Eat and run!

Hahah can you imagine the tailgater's face when you toss a mustard-sauced wad of BBQ pork on their windshield?!

Well. I registered for the Conference!

Also reserved a room (condo AT the Conference Center, $89/night before taxes, etc). I will happily share the space, and cost, if anybody's interested.

I opted out of the house option. The "crowd" of ladies that were supposedly planning on riding out from MD seems to have dwindled, and the others planning on riding are gonna take 7 days to get there.

Camping is $19/night at Heaton Bay plus $6/day for a shower...hmmm, almost halfway to the cost of a room already...

How many roommates are you looking for? And, when you registered, did they list any sign-ups yet for seminars?

I figure how ever many are interested in "sharing" and how many are inclined to share a bed or need one to themselves, etc. That will dictate how many rooms/beds I should look into.

The room I got is an efficiency/one bedroom (need to get the details on that) AT the resort. One other person would be great, two would bring the per person cost down more. (Rate is $90/night for 5 nights).

I'm a non smoker, so I suppose I ought to put that out there. I'd prefer to room share with non-smokers, but I can be flexible... (okay, to a point - we can talk).
