I will be back in Wisconsin from the 29th of June until July 15th. Got a load of work to do while I am there but have set aside some weekend mornings to hang out with you guys so if you can all come up with a date in that time frame. I should be able to make it.

I'm out of town from the 19th to the 28th... the 28th might or might not be doable depending on when we get back into town.

I'll be out of town that entire week, staying on Outer Island in the Apostles, photographing the night sky and fighting the black flies.

I am looking at being back in the states around the 23rd or 24th of June. After a couple of days to get over Jet Lag I would be interested in a GTG at the Zoo or anywhere else.... So if you guys do not manage to make the zoo by then. Count me in. Will be around til about July 9th or 10th.

Maybe we could try for June 27th?

It's no good for me today... I have family unexpectedly coming into town, and that will be my day.

Then we can try something else soon. Have a nice holiday.

Damn,I still can't make it. I Had a fun trip to Orlando this past weekend. I left here Friday at 4:30PM got back to Wisconsin at 11PM Sunday. Brings grand total to just over 8000 miles driven in past few weeks. 6 days of driving 1000+ miles each of those days. Glad my next 8000 miles will only take 16 hours and I don't have to drive.

Only a few more days and I will be in NZ sowing down on Meat Pies, Fish and Chips, and some Turkish Kebab's.

I'm going to have to call myself tentative for now... I'm on travel and I don't get back into town until mid-day Friday. Depending on what I get done on Friday, it might well be a possibility...

Was thinking about going to Texas for a few days myself to visit my cousin who I know will never come to NZ to visit because she is affraid to fly. However after driving to SanFran and Back, A drive to Texas doesn't sound as appealing, I dont mind flying but I hate Airports, so I think a phone call will have to do.

If you guys work out a date earlier than the 23rd, We could kill two birds with one stone, Although I do like the idea of having my own little day. lol

Let's un-hijack Ed's thread back to the Zoo GTG topic, and I'll start a new thread for a GTG for a send-off for Brian...

Edit:
Here is the other thread; we now return you to your regularly scheduled Zoo GTG thread. Sorry for the hijack Ed!

Hope you left a big enough root ball when you dug yourself up! ;-)
So we have the 2nd/3rd, 9th/10th and 16th/17th... How about we target the 9th/10th, that way hopefully the leaves will be on the trees, and if the weather is crap we can try to reschedule.
