Title: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by TxBasslady on Jul 17th, 2007, 2:00am BEST WESTERN STEEPLEGATE INN DAVENPORT, IOWA January 17th - January 20th, 2008 Toll Free Reservations: 1-800-373-6900 For those who'll fly in...The airport is MOLINE (MLI). This is actually in Illinois, but it's only a short distance to the State line. Best Western's worldwide give discounts: age 55 & over get a 10% discount (rate would be $80.10 per nt). DJ and others who are Military get the rate of $60.10 per nt. They also have corp rates and AAA. Jackie will advise on the Hospitality Suite....and also any info as to whether or not we'll get the rooms cheaper. The existing rate is really pretty reasonable. BTW...I spoke to Stephanie today ;;D. She and DJ and baby may grace us once more with their presence. She'll let me know... I'll update as needed... Jean (This is not an official OUCH function...this is an annual Meet & Greet) |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by Mosaicwench on Jul 20th, 2007, 11:50am I DO think they'll object to us firing up a grill in the atrium for a Superbowl tailgate party.

Just mention that you are with the OUCH group coming in on that weekend and ask that that note that on your reservation. They quoted $89 a nite for single and $99 for double and poolside. It will help me negotiate the rate for the "after hours" hospitality room... ;;D Jackie |

Step 5 will take less time than 2-4 combined? Maybe I’ll come alone after thinking about the latter part of step 5? What the hell, the kids will have fun!

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by M.R. on Nov 1st, 2007, 10:54am Allrighty, I have changed the reservation to the 17th thru the 20th (I be showing up on Thurs. this year). The only thing holding me back is if I actually find a good job in this lame ass, piece of shit state and they won't let me have the time off. Mike P.S. Still got the rate of less than $81.00 a night on my NRA card, for you members that can't get a cheaper rate otherwise. |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by Jackie on Nov 26th, 2007, 10:33am I just spoke with the sales dept. at the Steeplegate. The quoted room rates are $89.99 single, $99.99 double...poolside is probably more so check when you make your reservations if you want poolside. We can have a hospitality room for $95.00 per night if we take it for 2 nights. The going rate on the suite is $159.00 per night....so we got a little deal there. If anyone wants to book the hospitality suite (as their room) they can....there is a Murphy Bed. But....if you do, don't plan on much sleep.... ;;D They are fairly busy on Thurs., Jan. 17th, so if your arriving then you need to make your reservations soon. Also, if you have any kind of discount available (AAA, NRA, AARP) tell them when you book your rooms. Oh....the hospitality room holds approx. 20 people. and can be used as late as we want (the banquet rooms have to be empty by 12:30 am). The atrium has to be empty by 11:00 pm. There is still smoking allowed in the atrium and we can take our own food and beverages in. It would be nice to update the list.... so if your planning to attend let us know, please. That's all I have for now.... Hope to see a bunch of you in January.... Jackie |

For those of you who don't know the area, there are gambling riverboats, nice museums including a John Deere Museum and a firearms museum on Rock Island. The natural history museum has an Imax theatre, too. The Quad Cities has a lot to do and see if you don't mind it being 2 degrees F. This is all only if you get sick of talking to clusterheads or the kids need a diversion . . . |

Seriously...we couldn't be a team full of volunteers...that's a bit pathetic! ;) I do, however, need to leave in the early afternoon on Saturday :-/ so that I can get back to Madison for my track's season ending banquet. Can't miss race car drivers dressed up nice and me being dressed up nice...it'll be a fun night! Just a few short weeks now! |

Where's the fun in that? We've gotten probably over 2 feet of snow so far in Madison and the wind chill at the moment is around 5 degrees.

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by Mosaicwench on Jan 2nd, 2008, 8:39pm For those of you unfamiliar with Iowa (and most Midwestern weather), here's a link to Davenport's weather: http://beta.intellicast.com/Local/Weather.aspx?location=USIA0211 Notice that right now it's 1 degree (that's Fahrenheit). By Monday the projected temp is 54 degrees. By DavCon it could be back to 2 degrees or stay at 50! Bring sweatpants! Jeans don't cut the wind and actually make your legs colder. We don't stand on fashion and ceremony at Davcon. Sweatpants aren't pretty but they are comfy and VERY practical. Looking forward to seeing everyone. |

I'm leaving the electric/electronic stuff at home, but that's just me (cuzonaccounta it requires amplification).

They are forecasting 5-10 inches west of us - let's hope it stays there and not here. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y261/GawkyEndymion000/snow2.gif |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by Jimi on Jan 16th, 2008, 9:00am Steph, I THINK that you are gonna be ok. If you get to Kansas City and it starts to get bad, just put up in a motel and drive on in the next day. My treat. I'm hauling a big ole present for Brandon that I made so you gotta be here. I spent every winter having to drive in snow where wrecks wer everywhere due to my job. Just gotta slow down and take your time. Anyway, signing off now. We are heading to Decatur Illinois shortly and spend the night with relatives. See you there Thursday! |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by catlind on Jan 16th, 2008, 9:08am Steph I'll get Clark to have a look at the specific models along your route and give a personalized forecast for you guys. Remember, follow what the tractor trailers do, years of driving highways in severe winter weather has seen me arrive alive through all kinds of messes (including our 19 hour adventure through ice and whiteouts at Christmas) by NOT following other cars and paying attention to what the truckers are doing. Will let you know what he says. Cat |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by catlind on Jan 16th, 2008, 1:27pm Ok, as of 11:30 a.m. central time, first bands of snow have begun in Omaha NE with temps dropping rapidly from 33F - 26F in a 30 min. span causing black ice conditions on main arteries within the area. Interstate 80 went from a few flakes to visibility variance of 2 miles down to as little as 1/4 mile with accumulation beginning. First, the models are not in agreement on this storm any more than they were on any of the others to hit NE/KS/MO/IA over the last 45 days. They don't seem to be able to pinpoint the track or precip until 12 hours out and often not accurately until 6 hours out. That being said, Clark has requested that I use his usual disclaimer: "Don't shoot the messenger, I am in sales, not manufacturing." Deej and Steph, for travelling tomorrow from Wichita to KC you will be following the storm the entire way. Things get interesting from KC on - if you are taking 35 to Des Moines and then I-80 to Davenport expect to drive right into the heart of it tomorrow with expected conditions to be moderate to heavy snowfall with blowing snow. Totals are estimated to be in the 4-7" range. Below is a precip map Clark created for you, and his advice is a night in KC or travel Friday - OR - since the snow would add 2-3 hours onto your travel anyway taking 35/80 (red line) that you may want to swing over to St. Louis and up (blue line) adding another 100 miles to your trip. You can expect road conditions to be snowcovered with reduced visibilities and difficult to dangerous travel conditions. Use the 511 service for IA (or any state) either online or by dialing 511 to get up to the min. road conditions. Iowa has an exceptionally good track record with their 511 service and has been spot on every time I've used them. This is anticipated to be a snow only precip event so there won't be any freezing rain anticipated prior, during or after the storm. He figures I'll be able to drive it no trouble on Friday even with the blowing conditions as the ice will not be a factor as it had in previous storms. http://members.cox.net/andrea-baechler/Snowfall.gif Sorry guys, wish I could have brought you better news, I want to see that little guy as bad as anyone and also have a gift for him; However I want you to make your decisions based on all the available data you can get. Anyone planning to travel from west to east should keep a very close monitor on the conditions as previously stated the models just aren't in agreement on how much snow is going to hit or the exact timing. We weren't supposed to even start with the snow until after 3:00 pm and we picked up a 1/2" in a 30 min. time frame (just happened to be the 30 damn min. I was on I-80 of course....) Call me for any further info and I'll keep you posted. Cat |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by JDH on Jan 16th, 2008, 2:01pm Snow showers predicted here tomorrow and Friday with not much accumulation. We'll be heading north Friday morning and hopefully IDOT will have the roads clear by then. To those traveling tomorrow, be safe and we'll see you Friday afternoon! |

Ummmm not entirely sure Mike, but I'm pretty sure they don't let Clark check out commercial flights and potential delays on military computers :P I think the only way you can know about flight delays is by calling the airline the night before or day of your flight. :-/ As an update, we have received a fair amount of snow here in Omaha already and most of it seems to be going straight sideways - which truly perplexes my little pea brain - just how does one get accumulation on the ground when the snow is not actually falling 'down' but simply blowing straight sideways. Haven't heard any further developments from Clark as to any changes in the above weather pattern though. He should be home within the hour and if there's any changes I'll update. Cat |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by M.R. on Jan 16th, 2008, 6:34pm Although that was a somewhat rhetorical question, thanks for the thought Cat. I looked at their report and it sounds like it will snow, but only an inch or so. Should be no problem (so I say now). Mike |

We will be leaving in a couple hours, stopping in KC to see the father-in-law for lunch and then continue on our trek. All in all, it's 8hrs...good driving conditions...this could be a very stressful day. Say prayers for a safe and uneventful drive, we'll check in to let ya'll know we arrived in one piece... :-* |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by catlind on Jan 17th, 2008, 8:05am I'm willing to bet that with the blessings you and Deej have brought to all of us here and at MoyaMoya; that in return those will watch over you 100 fold in everything you do. May all of clusterville's vibes, prayers and energy carry you over the snow and straight to Davenport without event :) You guys will chase the snow across Iowa in front of you, no freezing rain fell up this far, so it's just snow and the cold temps that are road concerns. I'll keep you posted if the road conditions are bad and if the storm changes it's mind on anything from yesterdays forecast. Drive safe! Cat |

Title: Re: 5th Annual DAVCON '08 Meet n Greet Post by HeadhurtinMama on Jan 17th, 2008, 11:01pm I had to call and cancel my reservation today and won't be able to make it after all. I just spent 48 hours in the hospital being poked, prodded and tested. The neuro, who is not my neuro, thinks that I either went into a delirious state due to my sodium and potassium being way low as a side effect of my meds, or I had a seizure due to my meds. This really sucks as I wanted so much to come, but right now, I am just happy to be home. And I'm not allowed to drive or be alone until I have had a follow up with the neuro. So, I am counting of each of you to have an adult beverage for me, and make sure we get pictures!! Bridget |
