Don't worry I have a room, a two bedroom cabin with a twin bed in one room that's empty at the moment, he/she has the pleasure of sharing with gryfan.
He and I are driving down in one car and staying in Florence Thursday night.
I'll get a bottle of scotch at the border, for medicinal purposes only.

It is such a great, full service location at the Fontana Lodge.
I haven't seen any other place up there that would hold a group our size in such close proximity to the Dragon.
Thank You Kim,
I would never even consider staying at any other place for this GTG
The location is great, the staff is terrific and loves us !!
They allow us to use the entire lobby for our evening parties and they don't mind are consumption of alcohol either.
The patio just off the lobby and above the pool is ideal for a cigar and a view of the night sky.

I will try to negotiate a lower rate for next year while there this year.
I already have a contract with 60 rooms blocked for Sept. 1, Oct. 1, 2 - 2011

Same time next fall and I'm sure we will fill the place again.

Great to hear Ann, snake or will you have the yellow one up there? If so, you better have that new intake on and going, if not, bring it with you and we'll install it there

Damn this is going to be fun, the only problem is there are only 3 days to talk to many friends and do as much driving as the weather and cops allow.

Anyone who has not attended, you are in for a real treat

I was thinking the same thing last night. ~70 Crossfires (plus spouses) and only three days... We'll have to act like a speed-dating service to meet everyone.

OK, My Wife and I still have a room with 2 twin beds open at no cost to the user.
We just want to see that anyone and everyone that wants to be there has a place to sleep. The room is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday night checking out Monday.

We are looking forward to our first Dragon GTG and it sounds like it will be one of the largest.

It is time for some vacation and i can't wait to me you all

If you need a bed/place to stay please PM us for one of the twin beds.

MisterTaz the bed is yours if you want it???

John- thinking just the button, the snake is shy if there's a chance of getting wet and from our experience at the dragon "duh ya think" lol. Intake: it's a good idea Max would be there too, I'll send him an email- although space to pack it. Could use the trunk luggage carrier from the snake on the hood of the button....now that would be worth a picture for sure.
