Who wants to do it?
So far everyone who has expressed interest said the summer would work and Austin is looking Iike the frontrunner as far location.
Thoughts?

Though my only visit to Austin was in the summer and it was freaking HOT. I'm from the Northeast, we don't do well in 100+ temps, LOL.

Goldi, I'm interested! Are you organizing?
I think it would prolly work best if we identified a wknd, then all who want to go can vote on a location. I'd really love to see this happen!

What about Nashville, I've heard great things for a weekend trip.

I'm tentatively in. I usually drill the first weekend of the month. I also love potentially going to a beach, but Colorado would be gorgeous in the summer too.

Didn't think about the heat in Austin.
Wherever we go, I'm in. If it's Seattle I would bring the family because we have friends out there. I do love Seattle!

If we are able to go I'd prefer somewhere with a beach, in spring or fall.

I would love to go...but location and timing will be deciding factor for me. If it was Nashville, I could totally do that easily because it's only a 4 hour drive. But Summer time I can not take weekends off. So that is what will shoot me in the foot most likely. So I will wait and see what is decided and go from there.

I'm in, based on dates and location and where I'm at in life with the baby! But I'd really like to make it work!

I was kind of thinking like a 4 day weekend thing. That way there is time for everyone to travel and still visit for a couple days?
I was looking at Thursday, July 13th through Sunday, July 16th.
Nashville, Seattle, New Orleans, Chicago, doesn't matter to me.
Seattle would have more moderate weather. The other places are more central to everyone.

Location doesn't matter to me. A year will give me time to save up. I can probably go alone or with Cadence, we'll see where I am at that point.

I would like to make it work; it will just hinge on DH's schedule b/c ideally I don't want to bring the kids.

@yummecookee I actually have very little interest in organizing but we haven't had a serious discussion about it in awhile so I just thought I'd start trying to get everyone to come together on something.

I wasn't trying to foist it on you I just got excited that it seemed something might actually be coming together.

DH is on board with making it a family trip wherever we go but wanted to add a vote to Seattle lol.

If we do Seattle mh might want to come. Famous Twin Peaks locations aren't far from there and I think he would want to geek out on it all.
