Hi - I've been trying to register, but no luck on the links. All I get is a black acrobat screen. Help!
Email me at macrush53 At yeahoo dot com and I will send you the registration form
What's the best way to hook up with people on Friday night if a couple of us want to go directly to Powell's?
We will put info out this week about Friday night, meeting at Powells. You can email me at macrush53 at yahoo dot com.
Oh, good--My plane gets in around 7:30, and I'd love to meet up with people after I get checked in to the hotel, but I don't know where people will be at 8:30-ish!
I've registered, though I'm not on the official RSVP list. Am I officially registered?
readergirlz will be arriving around 9:30 pm on Friday. See you then!
