> [@elmwood](#): > > I forgot … wireless router and DSL, too. 😃 Oh fabalus! We can post messages to eachother from our laptops! 🙂 So uhm…I’m not really in to beer or wine. But I like dogs. In fact, I have one myself. Are dogs invited to DopeFests? ---

I have a fenced dog-safe yard (the rear grass/patio area, not the woods), and [these two playful pals will be there](http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/1006/bg144ag.jpg). Bring your dog! Be forewarned: Guinness may [get the humpies](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=7249207#post7249207) if another dog has very submissive traits. ---

Sure! I can’t supply everything. I mean, I’ll have a grill and hamburger patties, hot dogs and the like, but there’s gotta’ be more. ---

The 3rd works for me – I normally work Saturdays, but I will be glad to ask for the day off and it’s plenty far enough in advance. ---

Dogs appear to be invited, how about families? (I am not looking to wangle an invitation for anyone–and I would probably prefer to escape my kids than bring them–but it would probably be better to set that straight early than late. GrizCub and Rose’s son were very well behaved when they came, but Great Lakes Brewery is a lot more crowded than Pacers and **Elmwood** ought to have some say in whom WE invite to HIS house.) ---

June 3rd’s out for me:(. We’re in Florida for my cousin’s ordination. I’ll have to catch in on the next one. ---

> [@tomndebb](#): > > Dogs appear to be invited, how about families? Hmmm…we should make this a “come as a Pit thread” party. I’ll be “Your pets are not your kids!!!” 🙂 As for dates, I am wide open. I’m too boring to have anything planned already that far in advance. ---

> [@ZipperJJ](#): > > As for dates, I am wide open. I’m too boring to have anything planned already that far in advance. Looks like it’s going to be June 3, with the 10th for a rain date (sorry Elza B ☹ ) My supply of outdoor seating is limited, so folks might have to bring chairs. I’ll make a map with directions. The Heights-area suburbs are central, but they’re far from the Interstates. ---
