I'm watching the weather forecasts closely, as they seem to change hour by hour. At this point, I'm still hoping to make it down by mid to late afternoon on Sat.
If it ends up I can't make it...please let me know how I can make a contribution please?

Pegg - I will understand completely if you opt out of this storm. In fact, I'm wondering how many people might also opt to stay home, and what that might do to the participation in the raffles and silent auctions.
Our guitarist, who is running this whole thing, just told us that he's got a large contingent of HD employees who are coming on the heels of the joyous announcement of the strike settlement, and they will be ready to par-tay. I don't know that they'll be riding their 2-wheelers, however.
If it turns out you can't make it, I'll PM you with a name and address if you want to send a little something.
Praying for the weather gods to be wrong,
Bill

Since I'm only a short freeway drive away, you'll know the weather is bad if I don't make it!
Looking forward to it!
and the guest bed is made up for you, Pegg - I'll understand if you can't make it.

Some reports are calling for 8-12 inches, some for 5-8. Some say starting tonight, some state waiting until Saturday night into very heavy during the day on Sunday...
Who knows what Mother Nature has in store.

It's 4 pm and the radar says we're getting snowed upon . . . .
It's dreary but it's still dry here NW of Milwaukee.

For the central region, it's calling for the worst part of it during the afternoon and evening Sunday. Getting down there wouldn't be the problem, but getting home in one piece might be another story.
I've got to make the judgement call, and bow out on the trip down there this weekend. I'm bummed!

You know Tim,
If it weren't for the fact that we now have no Sales Manager, I have 4 big accounts I need to take care of first thing Monday morning including a full two page double truck ad thats going to have me at 75% of goal the first day of period 5 (period 3 hasn't even started yet) I HAVE to be at the office Monday 8AM sharp. I also have 3 non daily publications that are deadlining Tuesday, an anual publication that I'm in charge of this year that I need to follow up on on Monday as well, I'm booked with no room for a missed day. News paper is tight deadlines always, and clients don't always play well with the rules...

Newsroon has 4 inturns from the Journalism Dept. of the UW. Advertising sales there is no room for inturns. Sorry sweets.
I Do hoever wish I had a cloan who could take my place some days when all I want to do is beat my freaking head against the wall. I did request (and was granted) a desk move so I wasn't in full view of every walk in customer. It was getting quite embarassing to be at my desk dealing with a K4 or 5, head in my hands and wiping my eye and nose raw while they would look on. Now I'm down the isle 2 desks with a border wall that hides me from the eyes of the public.
It's better than nothing.

If the weather forecast gives in and says clear sailing I'll definately change the plan and come. But at this point I need to play it safe.

So sorry to hear it Redd. . . wouldn't ya know we barely have any snow left from last weeks thaw and now this . . . . (although I STILL don't think we'll get as much as they claim!)
I'm lucky enough to have 2 four-wheel drive vehicles and the venue is less than 5 miles from home.
I'm in charge of photos so I'll post some after the gig.
We'll miss you.

I have a beater car at this point, but there is a 4 wheel drive SUV for sale at my repair garage. I'm going to look into it and see what kind of deal I can make after my tax refund comes in.
I've been wanting something I can hawl things in, gas mileage will be awful, but I get reimbursement for business travel, helps offset the costs. From what I've calulated I'll be able to pay cash for it so I have some barganing room.
We'll see.........
If I had this now I wouldn't worry about the weather.

Charlie I don't think I have ever seen you post a pic here. Ever.
Is that your house? It looks so very upstate New York-ish. and VERY VERY nice I might add.
Bill and Pat I am so crossing my fingers that this fund-raiser will be a huge success no matter what the weather is. 
Pics or at least a report is required.
