Rochester (NY) is having its Fester this weekend, but, as so often happens, the WX is supposed to be rotten.  Not sure yet if I'm going.  If I do, '2ZM will ride along.  Anybody know for sure yet if they're going?  The ceramic garden frogs should survive OK in the rain Cheesy.

I usally go, unless its a  torential downpour when I get up to go.... and the forecast is for continuous rain... and then I usally go, hopeing that they are wrong... although I get wet, and also carry an umbrella, and hope the tailgate people bring along an awning, and maybee they drop the prices a lot, and maybee they hope that the weather gets better later, and they already paid for their spots, and what else they gonna do, as its raining and that ruins the weekend, and anyway, the wife cares less that i'm not home cause, there is less stuff for me to do around the house, like mowing the yard and then.___ and___ and then ___ with ___... and maybee there'll be less stuff next year if everyone stays away, and its a big weekend event, and I GOT to get away from the wife, who I took 3X to Rockchester, and she has had enough, ( she met Tim, and always asks me if its that guy - the one on the radio, who burps)... and maybee there will be a $100 SP 600 for me, next to a AN/ART-13 synchronization crank that I hope to someday find, if they really do exist.....  so, maybee (yes) I'll be theer,  the beer line will be short   klc

I hear sun and clouds, temps 75 or so.
Don't sweat the WX, if you don't like the WX in Rochester, wait 10 minutes. Tongue

Mike,

That's a better report than the old man sent me this morning.  Hope your right and he's wrong.  We're going to talk at 0730 tomorrow and make up our minds then.  Hope to see you there!

Sorry you won't be making it Gary.  I just talked with '2ZM on the telephonium, and we'll be leaving his QTH at 8 o'clock (Friday morning, that is).

Gotta run!
